ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

rebeljenn 'Garfield on the Town' was my favourite Garfield film. I saw it when I was very young, and I always felt very sad when Garfield goes back to the place where he was brought up as a kitten, and he remembers everything about this place (and his mother) and recalls how it used to be and how it has now changed. It's a very emotional scene, and you really do get to see another side to Garfield beyond the funny comments and the laid-back attitude.I don't think the film had too much more to offer, sadly, than this scene. At least, the rest of it is not very memorable. I first saw this when I was about five-years-old - when it was first on television. I saw it a few years after that, and besides the scene where Garfield visits his old place, I don't think it had much more to offer.I cannot say whether or not I recommend it. I can just state that I did enjoy it, and it was a very memorable film to me.

astro_92 Garfield on the Town is a fantastic animated special! The program was first broadcast when I was a toddler but I own the DVD containing the title so I can enjoy the interesting Garfield cartoon whenever I wish. This particular one is perhaps the most fascinating Garfield special I have seen out of all of those that were ever made.Garfield on the Town is amusing for many reasons. The special features a gang of ruthless felines, the CLAWS, led by the self-absorbed Ali, who has a huge appetite for violence. When Garfield is on the streets and gets hungry, he crosses paths with Ali and his gang of vicious, greedy, arrogant, and sadistic cats. Once Garfield realizes that he can't defend himself against this evil group, he decides to hide in an old abandoned building. There he is reunited with his mother and grandfather and is reminded that he was born in what used to be an Italian restaurant. I got real teary-eyed when Garfield reminisces about his earlier years. When the CLAWS gang finds out where Garfield is hiding they demand that the family give him up or be beaten to a bloody pulp. They fail to realize that Garfield's family is very tough and strong and will not tolerate bullies. In the end, Ali and the rest of the CLAWS get their butts kicked and then disappear. I would have to imagine that the CLAWS disbanded and left town never to be heard from ever again! I was overjoyed when the CLAWS were defeated by the good cats, Garfield and his loving (though rather eccentric) family.

Shawn Watson We all know how much Garfield hates going to the vet. So after wrecking Jon's house the fat cat is dragged, kicking and screaming, into the car. But even on the way there Garfield can't sit a peace. Until he falls out of the window and into the busy street. He quickly learns that freedom from Jon and life on the streets isn't all fun and games. No one is kind to him, he's cold and quickly hungry. So when he dips into a smelly garbage can he's met with hostility from a punk alley cat. Being house cat and used to home comforts, Garfield cannot match the aggression of this alley cat. More so when a hundred of them (looking more like the Critters from the movie of the same name, than alley cats) come after him. Garfield takes refuge in an old building which just happens to be Italian Restaurant where he was born. There he meets him mother and the rest of his family. Tho he doesn't belong. And Garfield learns that his real family is Jon and Odie. It's a very sweet natured story and the ending is cute and touching. There is a good reason why it won an Emmy for Outstanding Animated Program.

dynamite_xi This is a great story that really takes Garfield back to his humble beginnings in an Italian restaurant.Garfield is separated from Jon after a battle NOT to visit the vet. Pretty soon he finds himself stranded in the middle of an urban jungle, filled with dangers hitherto unknown to him.After running into a gang of surly alley cats, Garfield hides out in an old building, where he meets his long, lost mother! After a brief reunion and a trip down memory lane, he meets his large family, who are known for being "mousers" (not Garfield's type).Later on, the evil cat gang finds Garfield, and a large fight ensues. The good cats win, and Garfield is faced with a dilemma: stay with his newfound family or go home. It has a good ending.I give this movie a 7 out of 10. Go Garfield!
