Marley & Me (DVD)

After a stressful day I suddenly decided I wanted to see Marley and Me. After all it had cute puppies and Owen Wilson. It was bound to be a feelgood movie. Wasn't it? Hmm. The previews make it look fun fun fun all the way through, but it isn't. That doesn't make it a bad film though, just not quite what I thought. Based on the book by John Grogan, Marley and Me tells the story of John (Owen Wilson) and his wife Jenny (Jennifer Aniston) who move to West Palm Beach, get work as journalists and buy a house. But John's best friend Sebastian (Eric Dane) warns him that now they've bought the house, Jenny is sure to want a baby next, and the best way to delay that ...  Read the complete review

This is another film that I have to be honest and say I wasn't that bothered about seeing. It was one that ...  Read the complete review

Marley and Me has no outstanding thrills, no legendary romance or not even an extraordinary plot. But it is still one of the movies that I love the most because of the sweetness and simplicity of it. I believe that this is the perfect movie for dog lovers like me, or for anyone who ever made their pet a part of their family. There was some really great acting, especially from Jennifer Aniston and as expected, the dog in the film played the most vital part of the plot. The film is based on the book Marley and Me and having read the book, I can easily say that for me, it was quite an accurate representation of all the wonderful and profound feelings that ...  Read the complete review
