I do actually believe that I have watched the 1986 animated movie "Garfield In Paradise" once before, because as I sat down to watch it here in 2024, the storyline seemed very familiar. However, I must admit that I have no recollection of this movie prior to watching it. So perhaps I had entirely forgotten about it and watching it sort of recalled parts of the storyline.
The storyline in "Garfield In Paradise" is pretty straightforward, and definitely is something you would expect from a classic "Garfield" story. So writer Jim Davis delivered here, especially if you enjoy the classic 1980s "Garfield" stuff.
The animation and art style in "Garfield In Paradise" is good, and certainly is tune with the other "Garfield" animated movies from that time. And it is also very much in tune with the comic strips.
If you enjoy the classic "Garfield" stuff, then "Garfield In Paradise" is well-worth watching.
My rating of director Phil Roman's 1986 "Garfield In Paradise" lands on a five out of ten stars.
