Marley & Me [2008 Movie]

I finally watched Marley & Me earlier this morning. I had wanted to watch it for a long time but I know that it has a sad ending and what with caring for Snoopy, it was too much to take it. Anyway, it did it finally and at the end of the movie, tears couldn't stop rolling down my face.

Marley & Me is actually not only about a dog but the family and yes, Marley was very much a part of the family. Just like how Snoopy and Dino were a part of our family. Watching the movie, it made me realize how much I miss having a dog around. Sometimes, taking care of them could be extremely exasperating especially when they purposely be disobedient but at the same time, there are more good memories than bad.

Of course, keeping Snoopy and Dino are exceptional what with their extreme health problems. In the end, Marley had to be put down because of illness, something that I have contemplated in Snoopy's case but couldn't go through with it. It's an owner's choice, no right or wrong to it.

Marley & Me reminds me of 10 Promises To My Dog, the Japanese movie about Socks, also a Labrador. Between Marley & Me and 10 Promises To My Dog, I really couldn’t choose which is a better movie, though.
