Marmaduke, the world's most lovable Great Dane, leaps from comic strip fame (appearing in six hundred newspapers in over twenty countries) to big screen stardom in this family comedy event. A suburban family moves to a new neighborhood in Orange County, California with their large, yet lovable Great Dane, who has a tendency to wreak havoc in his own oblivious way. But it's not all living large for the Duke, who finds that fitting in with his new four-legged friends, and a potential romantic interest, isn't always easy for a super-sized teenage dog. Owen Wilson gives the beloved Great Dane his voice in the film, which also features the voices of Fergie, George Lopez, Emma Stone, and Kiefer Sutherland.

| Philadelphia Daily NewsGary ThompsonToo bad Marmaduke wasn't released a few years ago, when forced viewings of it might have been offered as a suitable punishment for Michael Vick. |
| AV ClubKeith PhippsMarmaduke saves its farts for the beginning and end, but the stink carries through the whole movie. |
| St. Louis Post-DispatchJoe Williams"Beverly Hills Chihuahua," we owe you an apology. Among talking-dog movies, Marmaduke is the runt of the litter. |
| Bangor Daily News (Maine)Christopher SmithPreviously, director Tom Dey made "Failure to Launch" and "Showtime," the latter of which was one of the worst movies of 2002. Congratulations Tom, you've done it again in 2010 with "Marmaduke." |

| Film Journal InternationalEthan AlterBecause nobody demanded it, here's a live-action version of the five-decade-old comic strip about an abnormally large Great Dane. Insert your own "dog days of summer" joke here. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekIn terms of his longevity in the newspapers, 'Marmaduke' is a very old dog. And the movie has no new tricks up its paws. |
| ColeSmithey.comCole SmitheyA low-impact kid's comedy, "Marmaduke" may have little in common with the comic strip upon which it's based but remains a perfectly viable flick for dog-loving families. |
| Detroit NewsTom LongKids deserve better. Heck, dogs deserve better. |
| BeliefnetNell MinowThe first of many instances of doggy-doo humor comes about three minutes into the film. |
