Can't someone put Jennifer Aniston in a movie that doesn't suck? I don't want to spoil this movie for anyone but...
.
.
.
..all the best bits are in the previews. REALLY.. ALL of them.
.
The Owen Wilson character spends an entire lifetime whining, which may make a great book as his worldview gets turned around, but makes a tedious movie. I mean you got a great job, people love you, Jennifer Aniston is humping you like crazy - enjoy it a second.
.
And you can't even THINK "what the hell is wrong with you?" because cute Owen totally went nuts right before this movie and tryed to kill himself, which takes all the fun out of mocking someone.
.
Did I cry? Of course I cried, they killed the dog - and that's no spoiler if you have been paying attention. I mean it is Marley's life story. But don't worry, they take their own sweet time getting him to die. Honestly, Marley lingers longer than Ali Macgraw in Love Story - and that isn't an exaggeration. And since Marley can't talk everyone else has to explain why they feel bad.
.
Hummm.... Why they feel bad? Duh, the dog is dying... we get it. The Titanic sunk faster in Jame Cameron's 16 hour movie!
.
You want a good time for that same money, here is what you do....
.
Take your money to Target, by Season 8 of Friends and watch Disk 4 where Jennifer Aniston is more believable as pregnant AND is given more do to besides pout. Added plus - JAAAANICE is in in one of the episodes and packs more comedy into labor pains that Marley and Me does into it's entire 46 hour running time.
