It was the worst of times, indeed. The title pun is about the extent of the creativity lavished on this witless sequel, in which Garfield (Murray) goes to England and trades places with a pampered castle cat (voiced by Tim Curry). As reliably boring as the comic strip, Tail aims for all-out guffaws, with Garfield foiling the schemes of the estate’s human heir (Connolly) and teaching his Babe-like barnyard friends to make lasagna. The cat is computer-generated, and Murray’s delivery might as well have been. (Now playing; click here for venues.)—Ben Kenigsberg
