Watch Marmaduke For Free

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Fresh and Exciting

Excellent but underrated film

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Marmaduke (2010): Dir: Tom Dey / Voices: Owen Wilson, Emma Stone, George Lopez, Kiefer Sutherland, Stacy Furguson: Idiotic piece of dog dung based on the popular comic strip. Marmaduke is a Great Dane in a not so great story. He describes himself as a teenage dog living with the typical family until they move to Orange County. His owner works for a business that specializes in vegetarian pet food and they travel to a dog park to discuss business. Meanwhile, Marmaduke learns that the dog park is dominated by a big black dog named Bosco who takes an immediately dislike to our Great Dane when he is caught talking to the wrong female dog. The human characters are bland with Marmaduke's owner given dialogue that mainly consists of him yelling out his dog's name. Owen Wilson voices Marmaduke, a Great Dane skilled in a variety of activities including break dancing. Emma Stone voices that overlooked female dog who helps Marmaduke get sophisticated with the popular dog crowd. George Lopez voices Carlos the cat who goes out too much on a limb for Marmaduke. Kiefer Sutherland voices bully Bosco who threatens Marmaduke but viewers know that he will lose his position at dog park. Even singer Fergie gets in on this action also she will find nothing Fergalicious about it. Director Tom Dey previously made Shanghai Noon and Showtime. Here he is backed by terrible special effects including lame footage of dogs surfing. Since a dog could drown in such conditions, I found this greatly non amusing. This film should be buried in the backyard with the bones. Score: 2 / 10

I bought this movie on Bluray and I really enjoyed the movie a lot. You see, Marmaduke(Owen Wilson)is a naughty great dane who has another person is his family, named Carlos The Cat (George Lopez) who is great friends with Marmaduke. One day, Marmaduke's owners decided to move to a home in California because the Dad got a job at the Dog Park. Their new house had a pool, an ocean view, and a large lawn. Here's the main plot: Marmaduke is a Great Dane living in rural Kansas with a cat named Carlos. His owner, Phil (Lee Pace), works for Bark Organic dog food. Phil is very strict, from Marmaduke's perspective. One day, Carlos tells Marmaduke that he overheard Phil saying that they were being transferred to Orange County. They move from Kansas into their new house in California. Phil's boss, Don Twombly (William H. Macy), has the goal of getting Bark Organic into every Petco store in the country. Phil and Don meet at the dog park to discuss Phil's assignment – an ad campaign to win over Petco. There, Marmaduke meets a beautiful Rough Collie named Jezebel (Fergie), whose boyfriend is Bosco (Kiefer Sutherland), a controlling and violent Beauceron with two Miniature Pinscher minions named Thunder and Lightning (Damon Wayans, Jr. and Marlon Wayans). Bosco intimidates Marmaduke, who does not want to fight. Marmaduke then meets Mazie (Emma Stone), who develops a crush on Marmaduke. He also meets Giuseppe (Christopher Mintz-Plasse), a Chinese Crested dog who is afraid of everything, and Raisin (Steve Coogan), a highly intelligent but decidedly minute Dachshund. They get together at night and crash a pedigrees-only party thrown by Bosco, only to be scared away by Bosco. Marmaduke asks Mazie to help him get a girl, whom she presumes is herself but is actually Jezebel. Marmaduke has Carlos pretend to be lost in the dog park, and the two stage a fight in front of all the other dogs in order to boost Marmaduke's perceived toughness. Marmaduke then enters a dog surfing contest put together as a promotional stunt by Phil to sway Petco and beats Bosco, who is an established dog-surfing champion. They get into a fight, which appalls the Petco executives. He then takes Jezebel on Mazie's dream date, which the latter watches from afar. While the Winslow family are on Don's boat, Marmaduke throws a party, with most residents of the dog park attending save Mazie, Giuseppe and Raisin. Bosco crashes the party and discovers it was Carlos at the dog park. He then exposes Marmaduke, who loses his pedigree friends. He is left with no friends and a destroyed house. When Phil discovers the house in a wreck, he locks Marmaduke outside for the night. Marmaduke runs away, and leaves Mazie a toy that she had given him earlier. Mazie goes to Marmaduke's house, and Carlos tells her Marmaduke never returned. She then goes looking for him. Marmaduke in the meantime has met Chupadogra, a wise, elderly English Mastiff (Sam Elliott) who is feared throughout Orange County for presumably killing his owner. In reality, he ran away to lead the pack, but they abandoned him. He has spent the time alone in the woods with nothing but a blanket and his old water bowl, which reads "Buster". Buster/Chupadogra tells Marmaduke to go home and return to his family while he still has one, and then distracts a dog catcher. Marmaduke leaves, but gets lost. In the morning, the family discover him missing and begin searching for him. Mazie and the family find him at the same time on the streets, but Mazie falls into the subterranean rainwater conduit after the street below her collapses. Marmaduke jumps in after her and Phil tries to retrieve him, as well as the fire department. The fireman saves Mazie, but loses Marmaduke in the raging water. By this time, Phil has been fired for missing the meeting for the last chance with Petco. He then runs to the aqueduct that the conduits lead to and finds Marmaduke in the raging waters. He begs Marmaduke to let go of the branch he's holding onto and let the waters carry him to Phil. He reluctantly does, and is saved. Several kids get that on video and put it on YouTube. Since it generates almost 700,000 hits, Phil is rehired. Phil then talks about moving back to Kansas, but the entire family wants to stay in California. Marmaduke later confronts the pedigrees, saying that differences shouldn't matter, that they're all dogs and should have an equal share of the park. Everyone agrees and turn on Bosco, who leaves, vowing revenge. Meanwhile, the YouTube video also wins the company the Petco deal. He and Don begin thinking of new commercials when they ask each other about if the dogs could talk to each other, or even dance. The finale then shows Marmaduke, Jezebel, Mazie, Giuseppe, Raisin, and Buster, among others, dancing and singing "What I Like About You", which turns out to be the commercial. In the end, Marmaduke and Mazie are dating, Marmaduke and Jezebel are friends and all is well.

Since this is a Kids movie I didn't expect it to be any good. and I was right. the CGI is obvious. the storyline has been used so many times in so many other movies. when i watched this, (against my will) i could tell exactly what was going to happen as the movie played. first there was an unhappy troublemaking dog who moves to a new town, meets a bunch of new friends and enemies. Thinks hes in love with a collie yet ends up being with the "best friend" and the enemies became friends and everyone lives happily ever after! WOW, this is like that dumb kids movie Max Keebles Big Move and every Disney channel original movie that there ever was. Marmaduke is just not worth your time or money or common sense so watch something else, something that doesn't have Owen Wilson in it

Maybe it's because I grew up with, and still have, a Great Dane. I don't know. But I really enjoyed this movie! I therefor really don't understand all this negativity. Did people really expected it to be an award winning movie like the Godfather or Titanic?? I sure hope not. It's about a talking Great Dane for crying out loud! And it's just as good as any other "animal talking and dancing" movie, like Garfield, Beverly Hills Chihuahua, Hotel for Dogs etc etc.The movie is funny and cute. And I will definitely get it on Blu-ray soon.So if you're a kid and/or a Dane or dog lover, this movie is just plain fun to watch.
