Sadly Over-hyped
A Masterpiece!
I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
The problem is not that the title indicates the original movie continuance, but I really think it should have another title because the movie structure is completely different from the original, so why maintain the same title? Just to have more viewers? Unnecessary.Well, I don't like when real animals talk. We can see that it is not requirement, because of the success of other movies, and I think it's to force too much. And the history was very normal, it wasn't interesting. Even for kids! Don't underestimate their intelligence, a movie don't need to be silly when it can teach something, or just have more creativity and smart aspects.Of course, the dogs are really cute, and my star goes to them!!
For everyone who has came on here and wrote a horrible review for this movie... I don't think you understand that this is a Children's movie!! If you enjoyed the original 'Marley & Me' thats great, but this is NOT a sequel to it. This is the "puppy years" which shares ONLY the name, "Marley." Which is for kids.. I read the original "Marley" book and enjoyed the original movie. Before renting "The puppy years" I knew it was for children, so I was not surprised nor disappointed.. All I did was read a review for it before I rented for my DAUGHTER! My 4 year old liked it. She also likes the "Buddies" movies. If your CHILD likes the buddy movies then they'll probably like Marley & Me- the puppy years!!"
Every review I've read for this movie has failed to actually review the movie and just complains that its not the original Marley and Me.To clarify, this movie is NOT supposed to be connected to the original other than the fact that it contains a puppy version of Marley as the main character. The acting is decent, but don't expect Hollywood star grade acting (which you shouldn't because the film contains no-named actors). The story is cute and is sure to sit well with your kids. The film and audio quality are good, but there's no fancy special effects or anything flashy to make it stand out. There are a couple scenes that will be funny and enjoyable to people of any age, but for the most part this is directed towards children. Overall, this would be a great movie to rent for your kids if you need to keep them occupied for a while, but definitely isn't worth buying!
We turned this movie off after watching it for about 3 minutes. I even called Redbox and got a refund on the movie - which I have never done before.It starts off really weird with characters that were not even in the previous movie. Marley is being watched by this neighbor boy and his mom thinks he "her son" is a screw up. Their acting was terrible.Once Marley started "talking" - we turned the movie off. Marley is played by a real dog but his mouth is animated. It looked really cheesy. If Marley's mouth won't have been animated, we would have probably watched it of another 3 minutes or so.This movie is meant for kids ages 4-8.
