Critics Consensus

Pet owners should love it, but Marley and Me is only sporadically successful in wringing drama and laughs from its scenario.

Deborah Ross The Spectator OK, I admit I cried a small bucket at the end... but at least I hated myself for it. This is bland and obsequious tripe or, as my own dog would say, "Woof!" Aug 29, 2018 Full Review Nell Minow Movie Mom Rated: B+ Feb 18, 2012 Full Review Hank Sartin Time Out Rated: 3/5 Nov 18, 2011 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review The production is light, filled with big love and sobbing cries, two talented stars that sufficiently play their roles, and plenty of awww moments the movie makes sure to replay during the end credits. What’s not to enjoy? Rated: 3/4 Mar 3, 2024 Full Review César Albarrán Torres Cine Premiere Marley and Me has its funny moments, never neglecting its dramatic objective.

thiago s Filme bacaninha, o roteiro é mais ou menos, as cenas são bacaninhas, a história é mais ou menos, o elenco é bacaninha, e a maioria ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são bacanas, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, o filme ficou bacaninha por causa do drama envolvendo o cachorro com a família. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/27/25 Full Review John R I've never cried so hard to a movie in my life. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/11/25 Full Review Audience Member Funniest dog movie of all time. Best thing ever made! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/19/25 Full Review Fabrícia F Uma família sempre fica mais completa quando tem um pet para chamar de membro do clã. Nesta deliciosa comédia dramática tal premissa funciona de maneira caótica mas sem deixar de trazer emoção e alegria ao cinéfilo mais racional. Recomendo as duas experiências. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/25/24 Full Review Aiden M I cried so many times because I am imagining That would be me looking at my dog for the final time And sometimes you just gotta care for a friend that you know and actually care about that person instead of Being a jerk to them. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/13/24 Full Review Shawn W The ops got Marley. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/17/24 Full Review Read all reviews
