Movies we love
Today, my mother and I decided to watch Marley and Me in the afternoon. We had heard from family members that it was a great movie and decided that it was time to hit the movies. My mother and I love Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson. Our favorite actor and actress in the same movie sounded like a great hit. To our amazement, it was!!!! Marley and Me is about a dog creating a relationship with a husband and wife. This dog as many people referred to in the movie was like a "monster". He was rude, obnoxious, and very very hyper. No matter what the couple tried, they couldn't get the dog to behave. The story advances as the couple try to have kids and build a strong family. There are a few bumps in the road once in a while but the viewers can see that the dog is with them all the time. Usually it's about him and he's behavior around the house but it is always resolved. One time during the movie, Aniston told her husband that she was tired of him hurting the kids somehow (lack of sleep and bumping into her son all the time who had just started walking). So, he decided to keep Marley away for a while but there was a feeling of emptiness around the house and they missed him. The climax of the movie starts to build up as Marley suffers from an illness. In the end though, just like any other dog his time was up. Everybody in the audience started to cry as Marley began to close his eyes on the operation table. It was a touching moment and my tears had a mind of their own. If you haven't seen this movie, I strongly recommend you do especially if you are a dog lover. It's a great flick to enjoy with family and friends!!!!
