marley & me

the latest movie i watched is by owen and jennifer aniston and it's a family thing... honestly i didn't enjoy it. it's too light and i don't understand why the couple became so attached with the dog who had been irritating from the start? i don't get it. the movie practically revolved around the dog who since the beginning had been eating and biting their furnitures. surely, marley the dog should have been trained for all those years that he lived with a family. if i'll do the summary it'll be just this..

a dog got a home, ate a bunch, chewed furnitures, barked at night, irritated its masters, got old... and finally died.

a couple got married, applied for a job, got a house, bought a dog, chased the dog most of the time, had children, wife resigned from job, husband got promoted, lived in the rural, pet the compulsive dog, cried when marley died.

and that's it. not even funny, not even that dramatic. but one thing i like about it is the behavior of the couple throughout their marriage... giving much consideration to the betterment of the other.
