Marley & Me by David Frankel

Category: English

Marley & Me is about a dog named Marley who enriches the life of Owen Wilson & Jennifer Aniston's character. The film spans the entire dogs life and has the lead pair portraying journalists. One good thing was there wasn't a LOT of melodrama in the first half and it's all pretty slick but the 2nd half as expected is loaded with it, so if you love dogs bring out the hankies!

I am really not sure what else I should be commenting on!

Recommendation level: 1.5/5 Yeah it's cute and the emotions behind it are real but the climax is a little drawn out and kinda expected. The film comes undone in the second half and that's a let down for me personally. Jennifer Aniston & Owen Wilson hold this film together along with the dog named Marley. 5/5 If you love dogs!

  1. i was about to call you a homo, but 1.5/5 sounds hetero enough.

  2. You must be in a pretty sappy mood to give Marley and Me a 1.5 ... -5 is more like it.
