Marley & Me

Pros: Well done story, good acting and directing.
Cons: It's a shame that this was marketed as a goofy comedy, it was not.

The marketing for Marley & Me, starring Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston alienated some of the potential audience for this film.  It was marketed as a sort of screwball comedy with lots of funny incidents with the real star of the film, the ...

Pros: interesting film, the dog is quite cute at times, heartfelt at moments
Cons: some slow moments, it seemed like work to watch the whole thing

Marley & Me wasn't exactly what I expected when we finally got around to renting the DVD, as the film had been advertised as this hilarious comedy surrounding a mischievous dog.  The movie did have a few moments within it that were ...

Pros: Wonderful heartfelt story, Aniston & Wilson have a good chemistry
Cons: PG is too week a rating

the plotThis is the story of a married couple and their adoption of a yellow lab puppy.  The couple, John and Jennifer Grogan, are newly married news paper reporters and they wish to escape the cold Chicago weather by moving ...

Pros: Entertaining story.
Cons: A bit familiar.

What's not to like about a story of a dog named Marley and his owners/companions? Very little. This is a good little story that may bring tears to your eyes. Especially if you like dogs, Owen Wilson, and Jennifer Anniston. It is essentially the ...

Pros: funny yet endearing movie
Cons: none

I have yet to read John Grogen's memoir that this movie is based on, so I really didn't know what was going to happen in this film when I watched it on DVD. Marley & Me(directed by David Frankel) was released on DVD on March 31. This ...

Pros: cute animal action, the end was very emotional for any dog lover
Cons: poorly written, paced too fast, too much bad dog behavior, no chemistry

I don't read many books, but if the book is well-written and has a subject that interests me, I'll give it a shot.  If the book doesn't grab me within the first two chapters, I give up on it.  Well, ...

Pros: Pretty much everything about this movie.
Cons: Only one scene was out of place.

I was expecting a goofy movie full of moments of a dog acting up, and Owen Wilson, and Jennifer Aniston falling over the dog all the time. I found that although this does happen quite a lot, I was waiting for a Beathoven kind of movie full of dogs, dogs, ...

Pros: Funny movie, with a good story to it and pretty good acting.
Cons: The ending although necessary didn't make me happy.

With Mother's day coming up soon, Marley and Me would be a great, simple gift idea. Although I was hesitant in watching this movie at first after my friend sat me down and made me watch it with her (haha) I actually began to enjoy it. Owen Wilson and ...

Pros: Great movie anytime, funny, a movie anyone who's had a puppy can relate to.
Cons: The ending could have gone another way, although, I have no complaints about the storyline.

This film has the right combination of laughter and tears. Actors Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson in the starring roles, a perfect fit as far as I'm concerned.
The movie is light hearted and will make you laugh so hard you cry as you follow Marley and his owners through a lifetime of laughter.
