    Family friendly movies vs harry potter & shrek!

    its very weird reading reviews for any movie.. if you like the movie.. and you read the reviews of the people that hated it.. its like they saw a competely different movie then I saw.. I am talking in general terms here about movies, not just about garfield. JAOCB

    I did notice that tino. which really surprised me, I figure he would hate it. there are some minor torture about the dogs.. its more about cats fighting dogs then kids imitating some of garfield's action. the cartoon violences is very mild compared to other films. JACOB

    the reviews from Ew are so screwy at times. I never saw cat in the hat. I can't really compare the two films. JACOB

    with all the negaitve attitude towards the garfield movie, I felt that someone should defend the movie. There is nothing wrong with that. I am just surprise by the negitave attitude towards the movie. I am not a fox plant.. just a fan of the garfield comic.. probably helps that I am very much a...

    there are better moment in the movie, that are not in the trailer that are very much garfield attitude.. don;'t let the marketing (which has not done a good job) make you want to see the movie less. pig illustrated might be considered adult material in shrek 2.. the beginning of the movie...

Its on the direct tv.. you might might to check out the special. to...

    AICN has a biased option about the garfield movie. I really doubt they can review the movie truthfully about it. .indeed its is made for the kids.. I really doubt that the adult critics will be giving it thumbs up. meaning I am not surprise by the reaction. JACOB

    Family friendly movies vs harry potter & shrek!

    its PG for mild language. I would say it was more for the cartoon action/violences.. It was very mild violences. like cats and dogs. I got into the hype for both hulk and spidey.. I enjoyed them both. I was very surprise to find so many people negative about the garfield movie. I have...

    I am not being paid from fox to talk about the movie. I had a little more faith then some people on the net about the garfield movie. I have seen that review.. its true that the movie was made for 10 years. the audience that I saw with it.. laughed throughout the movie. I got the impression that...

    thank you very much for the kind comments. I do not work for fox. there is a lesson to be learned in garfield which is more or less the toy story plot line.. true that garfield is a selfish cat. He does learn his lesson, to a degree. its also a very funny movie. JACOB

I know that some parents might not want to take the kids to watch those movies because of the adult themes or witchcraft material.. There are other family movie that are...
