Marley and Me - a guest movie review by joey

I'm 25 years old and this movie made me cry like a baby! It's hard because we have a cute little yellow lab just like Marley. Her name is Prissy, and she's like a little sister to me. As I watched this, I thought of Priss and all of her antics. Marley is so freakin' cute! We had a Samoyed that died two years ago and that's still sad for me, because he was like my little brother. Owen Wilson and sexy Jennifer Aniston did an awesome job. Owen Wilson shows how he's so much more than playing screwball characters and can be tender as well. They adopt Marley and have to deal with his crazy misadventures. When Marley gets older, he doesn't seem like the main star. The movie is way way more than the typical dog movie. I loved all the trouble Marley got into. I was pretty much hyperventilating when it came to Marley's goodbye. It was extremely harsh to show his on-screen death, because that was not fair to dog lovers. They did take it too far for me. Also, I read the book first, and if you have not read the book, i recommend doing so- they really left a whole bunch of details out. If you love dogs, especially yellow labs, I recommend MARLEY & ME!!!

The day will NOT come that I see that movie. Since my lab Woo-Woo died almost 2 years ago and 2 labs before that, I can't do dogs dying, even in a movie.
