I came to the movie to see the Garfield that I used to love from the comics from when I was a kid, and I definitely got that. The drawing style of all the characters was very recognizable and the slapstick humor that I wanted to see was present throughout the whole movie.
I must say the voice of Chris Pratt was better than expected and I think it did the character justice. Not a single moment did it not come across as unbelievable. The other voice actors were perfect and wonderfully exaggerated at moments, which fits the movie perfectly.
Jon didn't have a very big role in the movie, unfortunately, but when he was there he was like Jon was supposed to be. A bit goofy and funny.
Odie, however, was not very much like the character in the comics in my opinion. He used to be an abused sidekick that was basically always in the way and very stupid, but here he was the Robin that did everything for Garfield and he got credit for it as well. Modern times I suppose.
The plot is far fetched, the story is weird and has holes, but all that doesn't matter because it technically is a children's movie. I enjoyed the jokes and the animation quite a lot and so did my kids.
Don't compare it to the 2004 movie.

Just kidding, the episode was just as horrible as the rest of the season, if not worse. The whole season has been such a bad one that no single episode can make up for it.
To the people who keep saying to just stop watching: Yes, you might be right, but we we also watch this because we expect Star Trek to deliver quality TV. Especially with a budget like this. We're disappointed.
Besides, these are reviews. Reviewers can also watch bad shows and give their honest opinion about it.
What strikes mas even more odd is that the positive reviewers believe we are here deliberately to downvote the show. No, it's just funny how bad the episodes are and the large majority seems to agree on that. It's not a small army of trolls, it's actually a huge group of people who are utterly disappointed in the massive failure of the writing staff who obviously have very serious emotional issues that they need to go see someone about. This is not Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek and his son should really be doing something about it.
I can't even go into detail about the episode, there are always so many things that don't make sense.
Remember season 1 of TNG? When Diana Troy was super emotional in the first 2 episodes of the series and it was just cringeworthy as hell? After that it became better and better and better. Why is this the other way around? Why isn't there someone in the writing staff to just says "I can't write this anymore, I quit"? It can't be possible that the whole crew who works on this show is happy about it.
