Clasica cinta de los 80 con John Goodman haciendo de pez fuera del agua. Fue vuelta a hacer sin autorizacion bajo el nombre de "Garfield 2".

Oh C'mon John Goodman. You are better than this. Only work with the Coen Brothers, and you'll be fine.

It's sort of a filler movie. Nothing all that special about it. Nothing bad about it either. Although I'm glad I saw it, because now part of Pyst, a parody of Myst, makes more sense.
