Marley & Me: The Puppy Years (2011)

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!!

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.

Seriously? A sequel to Marley & Me would have to be written by God to make any sense.. not some bad writers.This movie is absolutely awful: awful script; awful actors; awful plot..And a Talking dog with sunglasses??? wth.. i watched 15 min (if i had watched more I probably would be flying to US to kill the producers) and can't do It anymore...If you liked Marley & Me, DON'T watch this one.. Thanks for trying to destroy one of my favorites movies, Hollywood.. again.
