I can't say that I ever really thought about a dog looking quirky before, but that is exactly the word that came to mind when I spotted Marmaduke.
As I started watching this lanky, socially awkward, kind canine with exaggerated facial expressions and floppy ears, I felt the stress of the day start to evaporate.
Marmaduke is a beautiful Great Dane whose large size might make him look dominate in the world of dogs, but his sweet and easy going disposition actually makes him unprepared for bullies. However, unprepared or inexperienced does not mean incapable, which is a reminder we all need to hear.
Oh, and perhaps I should tell you, in the movie "Marmaduke" all dogs talk
and are quite animated!
Marmaduke - Movie Synopsis
Marmaduke [Blu-ray]Check PriceWhen Marmaduke hears that they are moving from Kansas to California, he isn't too thrilled to leave his yard full of buried bones. But, he will be with his family and his only animal friend, Carlos the cat, so he goes along without fuss. Little does Marmaduke know, the world of ocean waves, unfamiliar neighborhoods and the "pedigrees" await him.
Upon arrival, he loves the new house, especially the big doggie door and his new "bathroom". Plus, his new friends; Maisie, Raisin and Guiseppe, are adorable. I had to laugh when Guiseppe states that he is afraid of pumas aka mountain lions. That is a reasonable fear for anyone, but he is so cute with his constant reminders about them throughout the show.
I laughed until I cried watching the Great Dane surf! I totally forgot that I was having a bad day and enjoyed the movie. I think you will too!
Where to Watch Marmaduke
I cut the cable years ago. As a prime member on Amazon, I watch a lot of movies for free, but I also subscribe to a few streaming services. I watched Marmaduke on Peacock. It is also available to rent or buy on Amazon.
Now that I am finished sharing this fun movie, I think I go watch it again. See you there!

Marmaduke (2010) Movie Review by:
What a fun movie. The preview was a riot! I can see why you found watching Marmeduke very relaxing. Who can stay stressed when they are laughing at the antics of animals. Thanks for this fun movie review.
ReplyDeleteOh, Ms. Mouse, this sounds like just what the doctor ordered! Our family has included two Great Danes (at different times) and, when properly raised and trained, they are extraordinarily loving, gentle giants. I know I will love this movie. Thanks so much for the recommendation!
ReplyDeleteOh I know I would love this movie - great choice for something light and fun - I've been looking for those myself lately; I'll have to remember this one when I'm in the mood for a doggie/animal movie - the trailer draws you in!
