October 1, 2009Well, where do I start. Firstly, I loved the book. I couldn't put it down and I blubbed my eyes out at the end (embarrassing, as I was on a crowded Greek beach at the time). It?s such a simple but lovely story of a man, his dog and a young family. An easy story to adapt into a fi...( read more)

September 11, 2009I found myself being a little annoyed with this movie in the beginning because they didn't make a very good effort to train Marley.
However, I enjoyed watching him grow with his family over the years.
The ending was a real tear-jerker! -
August 9, 2009"A dog doesn't care if your rich or poor, clever or dull, smart or dumb. Give him your heart and he'll give you his. How many people can you say that about?"
To be honest, I wasn't that anxious to see this film. Why is that? Well, the first reason that comes in mind is the cas...( read more) -
August 9, 2009A well scripted, well acted film which offers some insight to just how important a part our pets are to us. Nicely put together film which is enjoyable enough, but be prepared to have your emotions placed in free fall.

The movie is ultimately less about the pain of loss than about the way families often take shape around a pet. full review

David Frankel adapts John Grogan's sentimental bestseller with no artistic pretensions beyond alternately making you feel like your heart is caving in, then injecting you with a gigantic syringe of go... full review

Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
The production manages, against heavy odds, to make its canine star an incorrigible bore. The problem is bad parenting. full review

Jeff Vice, Deseret News, Salt Lake City
Animal lovers will probably enjoy the movie, which has more appeal than the majority of its fellow Christmas Day cinematic arrivals. full review

Doesn't consistently capture the book's personable tone. full review

I swear, my handkerchief was only out because I've been fighting a cold the past few days. full review

Austin Chronicle, Austin Chronicle
Ostensibly a story about a mad, bad, dangerous-to-walk dog, Marley & Me has far more to say about the bonds that make up the modern American family. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Marley's misadventures play like a TV movie, never reaching the heights of such endearing canine-centered films as 2000's My Dog Skip. full review
