Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston play the Florida newlyweds who pick a labrador puppy little realising it's a furniture-chewing, necklace-swallowing, turkey-stealing commitment for life. Based on the bestselling novel by John Grogan, it's a story that charts the highs (fun-filled frolics in the pool) and lows (nothing good lasts forever) of a growing family with man's best friend for company.

Review

Newlyweds Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson flee the chill of Michigan to the sunshine of Palm Beach - he's a hack on one newspaper while she's a go-ahead features writer on another.

Not quite ready to settle down with sprogs, they hit on the idea of a puppy...and golden labrador Marley, a cute-as-a-button pup who grows into a furry 100lb demolition derby on legs.

A smash-hit in the UK, this drama from the director of The Devil Wears Prada warms the cockles and tugs the heartstrings.

A well-played, emotional final scene won't leave a dry eye (or nose) in the house.
