Zaki Hasan: Garfield’s “lasting presence in the pop culture landscape over the decades likely explains why Sony gave the lasagna-feasting feline a feature-length platter. What’s tougher to explain is the watered-down mix they’ve foisted upon audiences.” https://t.co/qALfCk8yW5
#TheGarfieldMovie debuts on Rotten Tomatoes to a lackluster 44% as of this writing. 🍕 This isn't a particularly strong score but it does currently beat both 2004's #GarfieldTheMovie (14%) and 2006's #Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties (12%). 🙀 https://t.co/6xFQSY0wpv https://t.co/DpIXfN9Zhf
