Critic Reviews

Kyle Smith

Like "Sex and the City 2," Marmaduke features well-coifed bitches in heat, nonstop puns and its very own Mr. Big. Unlike "SATC 2," this one is harmless and, on occasion, mildly witty. Read full review

Carrie Rickey

As doggy movies go, this one gets two paws out of four. Read full review

Roger Ebert

If you like the comic strip, now in its 56th year, maybe you'll like it, maybe not. Marmaduke's personality isn't nearly as engaging as Garfield's. Then again, if personality is what you're in the market for, maybe you shouldn't be considering a lip-synched talking animal comedy in the first place. Read full review

Roger Moore

A dull but harmless big-screen comedy aimed at the youngest movie goers. Read full review

Glenn Whipp

Wilson's amiable vocal work keeps the predictability from becoming too grating. Read full review

Kimberley Jones

It's an intermittently amusing parable about an outcast's ascension, as performed by a pack of digitally manipulated dogs. Next. Read full review

Wesley Morris

We’ve just been treated like a fire hydrant. Read full review

not the best movie in the world but a pretty good movie for little kids not a very good movie for older audiences though. at least it keeps little kids entertained.

The voice cast impress, but the plot, characters and jokes are all recycled from better movies. Fun for young toddlers, innofensive but rather too derivative for an older audience.

This is again someone makeing a movie with no point or plot for kids. yes its harmless but that doesnt meen the entire movie has to be a dog talking and doing cutsey wootsey things. what happened to film both kids and adaults could watch. or at least give us something barable to watch over This is again someone makeing a movie with no point or plot for kids. yes its harmless but that doesnt meen the entire movie has to be a dog talking and doing cutsey wootsey things. what happened to film both kids and adaults could watch. or at least give us something barable to watch over the age of 10… Expand

If you watch the live action Garfield film, you must think "surely this is the worst film involving a live action animal as the star"? Not anymore, it isn't Marmaduke is a dull film about a live action dog, where the humour is mainly dancing animals and farting. Oh, and William H MacyIf you watch the live action Garfield film, you must think "surely this is the worst film involving a live action animal as the star"? Not anymore, it isn't Marmaduke is a dull film about a live action dog, where the humour is mainly dancing animals and farting. Oh, and William H Macy getting knocked over. Twice. I know, the film is intended for children, but seriously?Kids like this garbage? I suppose they also like Batman & Robin then The reason I haven't given this film a 0 ratingis because the live action actors, such as Lee Pace and William H Macy, act well, despite the godawful script which could've been written better by two five year olds. They manage to endure the rubbish and act professionally. It's also impressive how many good actors the film got for voice actors. Kiefer Sutherland, Owen Wilson, Christopher Mintz-Plass, Chris Colfer. Must've been paying them a lot. So, if you get to the cinema and find all films but Marmaduke are sold out, go home. It's not worth the admission of the cinema ticket. In fact, it's better for you to take a ten pound note and place it in the shredder. It's more entertaining, has better dialogue and is a better value for money than seeing Marmaduke. I think i'm gonna Marma-puke… Expand
