Product Description
Genre: Comedy Rating: PG Release Date: 31-MAR-2009 Media Type: DVD
Amazon.com When a dog wriggles his adorable rear end into a human's life, the human will never be the same. And both Marley, the dog, and Marley & Me, the movie, manage to endear themselves deeply despite a few wee flaws. Readers of the John Grogan bestseller already know the raffish charm of the incorrigible yellow lab puppy, Marley, adopted by Grogan and his wife because she's "never seen anything more adorable in my life." But Grogan's simple tale of love, in all its forms, shines on the big screen, thanks to deft comic turns by Jennifer Aniston--in top form here--and Owen Wilson. Their chemistry is utterly natural and believable as Marley's owners, as is their interaction with the very naughty but ultimately irresistible Marley. As Marley grows up, the film follows his escapades--flunking out, spectacularly, from puppy training at the hands of a wickedly funny Kathleen Turner. And as Marley grows up, John and Jenny build their life together and weather some tough emotional blows. Like My Dog Skip, which it resembles in its affection for its subject, Marley & Me is a tear-jerker, but in the sweetest, most lovely way--because it, and its four-legged star, have wriggled into our hearts. Good boy. --A.T. Hurley Stills from Marley and Me (Click for larger image)

A contemporary Old Yeller and/or Lassie Come Home February 7, 2010 Alex C. Cullison (Fairfax, VA USA) A movie about a dog, Marley, and a young family.
The dog is very loving but extremely destructive. Marley defies even the most determined dog trainers.
The Owen Wilson plays a reporter who writes for a Florida newspaper. He wants to report the news as an immersion reporter covering relevant world news. Instead he is delegated a column of local community activities that incorporates his own commentary. He is unhappy and feels like a "Porsche on Blocks."
His family grows and changes, Marley gets older but not less rambunctious, and finally Owen gets a shot at his dream job in another state with another newspaper.
SPOILER ALERT***
A dog loving friend of mine once said after he buried his third labrador, "If I had known then, what I know now, I would have had a kid; they live longer."
Well, Marley is now an old dog and is facing death.
This is a very sad poignant moment and is extremely touching (and well acted.)
This may, (or may not) be a good introduction for young kids about death and how families/people deal with it.
As a dog movie, Marley & Me can stand toe to toe with Old Yeller and Lassie Come Home.
Marley and Me February 6, 2010 Michelle M. Stone This DVD was reasonably priced. It arrived in a timely manor and the item was as described. New and in original packaging.
funny February 3, 2010 Donna Davis (Browns Mills NJ) I heard this movie was good, but I haven't had a chance to check it out yet
A Wonderfully Funny Tearjearker February 3, 2010 Island Dreamer (Lahaina, Maui, Hawaii) This movie is based on the book by Josh Grogan. It is a great movie about a dog and his master who go through life together. But Marley the dog is horribly behaved and makes life for the newlyweds Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston play an everyday hassle. It's a great movie that everyone loves. But be warned. It's kind of a tearjearker. It's the kind of movie that you watch when you are crying one second and laughing the next. You should also read the book. Its good also.
Love, Love, Love this movie ! February 3, 2010 snl.barrow03 (Florida, USA) We saw the movie in the theaters and my wife had to have it! So I purchased it far below retail and to my surprise it came with a free digital version for iPod, which is pretty sweet to have when you travel.
