Garfield《加菲猫》很可爱,-是福克斯公司的《Garfield》：
"Garfield:The Movie" captures the elusive charm of the most egotistical character on the funny pages,and drops him into a story that allows him to bask in his character flaws.That Garfield is revealed to be brave and conscientious after all will not surprise anyone,although it might embarrass him.
The movie,based on the comic strip by Jim Davis,has been directed by Peter Hewitt and written by Joel Cohen and Alec Sokolow.The filmmakers obviously understand and love Garfield,and their movie lacks that sense of smarmy slumming you sometimes get when Hollywood brings comic strips to the screen.Although Garfield claims "I don't do chases," the movie does have a big chase scene and other standard plot ingredients,but it understands that Garfield's personality,his behavior,his glorious self-absorption,are what we're really interested in.The Davis strip is not about a story but about an attitude.
In a film mostly involved with plot,there are two scenes that are irrelevant but charming.In one of them,Garfield and Odie perform in sort of a music video,and in the other,at the end,Garfield has a solo,singing "I Feel Good" and dancing along.Oh,and Jon and Dr.Liz fall in love,although Garfield is no doubt confident he will remain the center of their attention.
Garfield talks all through the movie (this is one of Murray's most talkative roles),but only we can hear him; that's the equivalent of his thought bubbles in the strip.Garfield is animated,the other animals and the humans are real,and the movie does a convincing job of combining the two levels.Garfield looks like neither a cartoon nor a real cat,but like something in between -- plump,squinty and satisfied.Uncanny how when he talks,his mouth looks like Murray's.
There's a parallel plot involving the talentless Happy Chapman (Stephen Tobolowsky),who hosts a TV show with a pet cat.He thinks maybe using a dog might bring him national exposure,tells the little old lady he is Odie's owner,and as a training strategy,gives him electrical shocks from a cruel collar.Whether Garfield is able to break into and out of the pound,save Odie,expose Chapman and reunite Jon with both the dog and Garfield's own noble presence,I will leave for you to discover.
