*Short review*
This is a good movie. It's realy cute.
BUT not to spoil anything bring tissues. And get your laptop afterwords and go watch 666heartless666's videos on youtube to chear you up.
Too SAD!I walked out of a theater full of crying, sniffling people.
Beware, especially if you get sad easily.

I got the movie because we have a yellow lab puppy, everyone said you got to see this movie. We laughed, we cried, WOW. Our dog, Daisy, is not a Marley but we enjoyed every hijinks. Good family movie.
 A tragic tale August 4, 2010

When looking at the cover my first thought was that this looked like a sweet tale to share with children and it is- partially! But the movie is filled with very adult and disturbing themes that are not good for young viewers! Also upon the end of this film, almost every young child and several older ones as well, are left in tears of sadness and distress! That is not a component for a good movie in my opinion! If you are a dog lover this will distress and sadden you, if you are a small child this will bore you and break your heart and if you are a cold young adult who laughs in the face of death and thinks distructiveness is charming and amusing, then purchase this and it will be money well spent!
 Marley And Me (Two-Disc Bad Dog Edition) (2009)-2 disk edition was a good deal! July 22, 2010

Marley And Me (Two-Disc Bad Dog Edition) (2009) was a nice package for what I purchased it for. The movie appears to have turned on many dog lovers who gave the movie high star reviews. However, it also turned off a good number of dog owners who feel that it is an owners responsibility to be the alpha and provide some discipline for their pets. Marley was indeed a bad, willful but not mean spireted dog and needed some loving discipline.
Although I agree with them I feel this was a good (but not great) film and enjoyed it for what it was worth. For one thing the makers felt this film should not overemphasize Marley as a puppy. So we were not treated to many scenes of Marley as a young pup. If we had, the ending probably would have been much more effective.
One scene of Owen Wilson house training the dog was very funny and showed him using his own lawn for an object lesson in not using the house as a bathroom. The dog followed his lead and quickly did his thing. But Owen was spotted by a neighbor. I believe this scene was cut from the final film.
By the way, I only paid $7 for the double disk set recently at COSTCO and it was worth every bit of this very modest price.
Sorry, this was not a good film July 18, 2010

As the owner of a treasured yellow labrador I am constantly asked by people if I have read "Marley and Me". I always say "No, I heard it is kind of sad". Yellow Labs are special dogs, they are loving and intelligent. I am pretty sure the adult Marley in the movie was not a purebred lab, he had a brown topcoat and was lacking the classic blocky head of the breed. I am thinking a real yellow lab would not act like that. Enough about dogs. This movie was dumb, and the star was not the dog, they were Jennifer Aniston's breasts and man was it ever cold on the set.
I viewed the cut scenes and they cut out the only scene that might have made you like the dog, along with scenes that developed the characters. FAIL.
