Steineded How sad is this?
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Garfield in the Rough" is an American 24-minute cartoon from 1984, a special year indeed, and that means that this Emmy-winning film will have its 35th anniversary already next year. The heart and soul is once again Lorenzo Music with his incomparable voice acting and I truly think nobody could have done it better. I liked almost everything about this one: Jon's enthusiasm, but cluelessness, Garfield's grumpiness that finally turns into ambition, Odie's rare, but memorable presence, the rabbit and beaver characters with the priceless face expressions, the music and the general idea and plot. The only thing I maybe wasn't too big on was the actual wild cat showing up at the very end, so the film finishes weaker than it is for the most part and as most people tend to remember endings fairly well, this is maybe the reason why it is not the most-known of these many Garfield cartoons. Or among the most known you could say too. The funny comment by Garfield at the very end could not make up for that either. Still it is definitely good enough quality-wise to see it and in my opinion these Garfield cartoons are the very best in terms of cartoons after the Golden Age of Animation. How can you not like this cat? Impossible. I should put a . and turn this into a rhetorical question. Huge fan here, also of the books and there's no way I'm gonna give this one a negative recommendation. But I guess I don't have to give a recommendation at all as you probably have seen other Garfield cartoons before considering seeing this one, so you should be in a good position yourself to decide whether you wanna give it a go. I think you should and nice to see the Emmys giving it some well-deserved recognition. Despite the somewhat dramatic ending, it's all about the comedy and I think it's also a good watch for younger audiences. This is the stuff your kids should see when growing up. And this is also the stuff you should see when being grown-up. Why are you still here reading my review. Watch it now!
emasterslake After 2 successful TV movies, Garfield's already on a roll in animation.Garfield on the Rough is about Garfield and Jon Arbuckle are both bored and then came up with an idea on a vacation trip.Garfield became excited over the idea, and kept picturing himself at exquisite locations. But Jon Arbuckle decided that they go camping. Which Garfield doesn't at all consider a great vacation trip.When they made it to the wilderness Jon and Odie find it exciting, while Garfield already misses civilization.But within time, Garfield soon excepts that the wilderness is a sight of beauty. Meanwhile, a new report on the Radio reported an escape Panther on the loose and gave warning for everyone in the area to remain indoors. Jon Arbuckle has no worries about it, but they must beware, when the Panther lurks around their camping grounds.This TV movie has the same level as the previous 2, same animation in all. It still has some humor and good moments to it. And another look at for the fans.
Mike Did Desiree Goyette sing the songs for all the Garfield episodes? I'm just curious. I remember the voice for the shows, but haven't found any credits for the singing. I did notice, however, that on this site she is credited as a composer as well as an actress.
MovieMan-47 I liked this tv show because I like Garfield. Garfield's my favorite cartoon character.
