One year after Kevin McCallister was left home alone and had to defeat a pair of bumbling burglars, he accidentally finds himself stranded in New York City - and the same criminals are not far behind.
After their wedding, newspaper writers John and Jennifer Grogan move to Florida. In an attempt to stall Jennifer's "biological clock", John gives her a puppy. While the puppy Marley grows into a 100 pound dog, he loses none of his puppy energy or rambunctiousness. Meanwhile, Marley gains no self-discipline. Marley's antics give John rich material for his newspaper column. As the Grogans mature and have children of their own, Marley continues to test everyone's patience by acting like the world's most impulsive dog.Written by

For the shot in which Marley jumps over the fence at the Pennsylvania house, the dog was trained to jump, and the fence was lowered to an easily attainable height. Whenever the dog jumps onto or near someone, trainers used verbal commands and hand signals to cue it to jump up. Anytime the dog knocks someone down, the actor's fall was choreographed. The scenes in which Marley knocks down the toddler were filmed separately; the boy and dog were not in the scene at the same time. See more »

Relatively early in the film, in the early 1990s, John Grogan (Owen Wilson) mentions taking a trip to Disney World and a 2000s Walt Disney World sign is shown. See more »
Wonderful movie about life as the characters played by Jennifer Anniston and Owen Wilson get married and start their life together with the "most stupidest dog in the world". Lots of laughs in this movie but also as the story unfolds with the Grogan's careers and family they all love their dog "Marley".
This can be quite the tear jerker however I found the movie to be quite heart warming and very beautiful. We watch as the family grows and how their silly dog is a very important part of the family. Anyone who has had a dog can relate the movie moves along at a nice pace. Both Anniston and Wilson did very well here especially Wilson as we get to see him acting a serious part and doing it so well.
