Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen
Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
ClassyWas Excellent, smart action film.
Lancoor A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action
adled Amazing film, the last 15 minutes I was crying non-stop, whoever called that movie a COMEDY doesn't know what he's talking about, it's a DRAMA, hands down .Highly recommended !!!a must for any person who loves animals, and not only...
HotToastyRag I know you're going to want to see this movie. Owen Wilson—cutie pie, Jennifer Aniston—America's sweetheart, and a dog. Of course you're going to want to see it! Don't. Especially if you love dogs. The true story of an extremely selfish man whose bond with his dog exceeds his relationship with his wife. If it wasn't a true story, I would have faulted the screenwriter for writing such a one-dimensional "typical male" character, but since this person actually existed, I can only imagine how frustrated he must have been with his screen representation. Either that, or it was a realistic characterization and he didn't notice what a terrible person the world now knows he is.The "me" of Marley & Me aside, you still shouldn't see this movie if you're a dog or animal lover. I know I make it my policy to never give away spoilers, so hopefully I won't have to and you'll heed my warning. The preview of the movie will show lots of gags with the dog and some one-liners from Owen Wilson, but actually, this is a total tearjerker. If you've ever had a pet in your life, you will bawl. If you really want to put yourself through that, go ahead. I wouldn't go so far as to say I wish I hadn't seen it, but I'll remember the sadness for many years to come.
mark.waltz At 3 months, oh you are so cute! At 2 years, wow, you have so much energy. At 4, did you just pee on the carpet again? At 7, you're my best friend! And sometime after 10, what I'd do to go through all that again. Dogs are a necessary existence for many of people, and from Rin Tin Tin to Lassie to Old Yeller to even Scooby Doo, there's a reason why they are called man's best friend.For Owen Wilson, well, he looks like a dog in human form, sort of dorky, rather clumsy, yet smart and funny without realizing it. He's married to Jennifer Aniston here, an actress I've on occasion found lacking warmth and sort of unpassionate on screen. So it's obvious from the start that she'll be cool to the idea of a puppy, yet in time, it will grow on her no matter what she indicates out of frustration over the years. She does manage to warm up somewhat after tantrum throwing towards Wilson that briefly strains their marriage, and by the end of the film, you realize that this trouble-making mini horse is as important to her as their three children. Puppies are adorable and affectionate on the first meeting, but once they are adopted, their mischievous nature comes out, and Marley is no exception. Puppies also grow, annoy neighbors by howling when they're alone, eat their fill of kibble, and pee and poop at will. But once you've got that first taste of puppy breath, you're hooked, no matter how foul it is. A very funny cameo by Kathleen Turner shows an unsuccessful attempt to train the fast growing pooch. The always likable Alan Arkin plays Wilson's understanding Lou Grant like boss. Alec Mapa has a funny cameo as a rather obnoxious dog owner on the dog beach who judgmentally tries to tell Wilson a thing or two about what's permitted on the beach and what is not. This comedy drama documents all of those emotions, and while it takes time, the puppy is as much a part of the family as the babies they have. Of course, the three children they have see nothing but perfection in this messy but lovable lab, not at all impacted by its largeness as the dog watcher they hire ends up being. Marley isn't a slobbering mess like Beethoven or Turner's "Hooch", just a free spirit you can't help but fall in love with. Grab your Kleenex and go to town balling your eyes out, 'cause you will be crying both from laughing and from exploring many emotions over the circle of life that comes around for all dogs.
marknbkk I settled down for a Netflix night and found 'Marley and Me', a cutesy story of a man and his dog. I like Owen Wilson's acting, I am besotted by Jennifer Aniston acting or not, I enjoy romantic comedies and I love dogs - what could go wrong?? One thing I didn't take into account was my dislike of stupid ill-disciplined dogs, with that dislike being only eclipsed by STUPID dog owners who are so stupid they don't discipline their dogs, allow them to incessantly cause mayhem, and consequently allow their dogs to train them. As such, I found the two protagonists played by Owen and Jennifer nauseatingly annoying and the film almost unbearable - however, if you like Owen Wilson, Jennifer Aniston and soppy story lines, and you don't dislike stupid ill- disciplined dogs and their STUPID owners, this will undoubtedly be a good film for you. (But it wasn't for me!!!) A very lowly 3 out of 10 from me.
