Description of Marley & Me (Three-Disc Bad Dog Edition) [Blu-ray]:
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

Marley & Me (Three-Disc Bad Dog Edition) [Blu-ray] Reviews:
marley and me
2009-12-13 - I was terribly disappointed in this movie. Definitely not PG, not suitable for my granddaughter 5 years and I to watch together. She loves dogs but sold it at my garage sale to get it out of my house. A REAL DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!should have asked for my money back...

Marley And Me---More like Crap And Taking My Money
2009-12-05 - i went to this on christmas day last year with my dad hoping it'll be a cute, little dog movie. but boy was i wrong. my dad and i left within 30 minutes it was so bad. the dog wasnt even part of the story that much. the characters were shallow played by shallow bad actors. i couldnt believe i had to pay $13 to see this piece of crap---and it was on christmas day worse of all. even worse than that we were going to take my little 5 year old brother but decided we wouldnt---its not a kids movie---glad we didnt take him to it. the movie seemed so good in previews but it wasnt anything like them. i never would expect this kind of movie be aimed at the kids---at the time i was 14 and i was getting very uncomfortable watching this with my father and i dont usually get uncomfortable during movies or anything

No DVD
2009-12-01 - I just wanted to tell everyone that I never received the item that I purchased. I am glad for A-Z guarantee and received the full amount back. Will never use this seller again. Did not respond to e-mails.

Don't let the previews fool you, this is a GREAT movie!
2009-11-29 - I was skeptical that 'Marley & Me' would be a horribly sappy story with an overly cute dog and no plot whatsoever. Well, I wound out watching it when I was sick and nothing else was on, and I was so very wrong about it. I was smitten - overwhelmed - by how good the movie is. Yes, it's sappy in places, but it's still a great movie. There's both comedy and tragedy, and some surprisingly good acting even from the normally amateurish Jennifer Aniston. Owen Wilson is fantastic as always, he never fails to surprise me with his ability to perform. In watching, I discovered that the movie is based on a real life story, told in the book 'Marley & Me' by John Grogan.

The movie starts with John Grogan's (Owen Wilson) marriage to Jenny (Jennifer Aniston) during a freak spring blizzard. They move to south Florida, get jobs, buy a house ... and to avoid filling the spare room too quickly with children, John buys a Labrador puppy which they name Marley (after Bob Marley). From the beginning, Marley is trouble with a capitol T. He humps everything in sight (especially poodles), fails obedience class, weighs 100 lbs and pulls them everywhere on the leash, eats mangos, chews up everything in sight, and is generally a bad, disobedient dog.

Grogan's family finally expands with the birth of their first child, Patrick, and Marley continues to be an important part of their life. There's fun, frolicking, and frisky adventure whenever Marley is involved.

'Marley & Me' is the life story of Marley, so get ready for some tears along with the laughs. It's a surprisingly pleasant story of a family growing and developing, along with a dog that never listens and is afraid of thunderstorms. The movie is saved from being too sweet by showing the tragedies of life too, such as Jenny miscarrying her first baby, and their second son suffering with colic. Great performance by Kathleen Turner as the dog trainer, and Alan Arkin as Grogan's boss Arnie Klein.

The screenwriter and director did an excellent job of capturing Grogan's tale of Life, starting with early marriage and two people in love with good careers and a happy life, through the birth and raising of their children and the difficulties faced by everyday life in aging and raising children and balancing homelife with careers, and eventually turning forty. Don't miss out on the book either, John Grogan is an excellent writer.

Like I said, the movie really surprised me at how good it is - a solid 5 stars! Don't miss out on this fun, well acted, well directed, and well written story. Enjoy!



Should be retitled, "Me, my family, and oh, we have a dog"
2009-11-28 - This movie, I thought, was going to be a movie about a dog and his family. Well, not by any means is this a family movie, nor a "DOG" movie. It is more about a man, and his life. It was sad, and through most of the movie if Marley is in it, they are talking about how, "bad" he is. Not recommend.
