3. Marley and Me: The Puppy Years
Any film about a mischievous dog and has Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston as the romantic duo is always going to be box-office success. Whilst Marley was the centre of the narrative, it was Wilson and Anistons relationship on-screen and what the dog brought to their life that made the film work. Fast forward to today, where you can pick up Marley and Me: The Puppy Years on DVD. The plot is exactly what you think it would be. Marleyas a puppyand for some reason he now talks. I know, it doesn't make sense to me either. Ignoring the humans on screen (who are two dimensional stereotypes), the film is just a naughty puppy making unfunny jokes that lasts for the length of a feature film. The Puppy Years uses only the Marley name as a ploy to get people to buy the sequel who are hoping it has some resemblance to the first film. It doesnt. Watch Beethoven instead and save your money.
Why its in the top 10: Another talking dog film, but the novelty of a dog talking cannot cover up an empty script and boring story. Must try harder.
