1. My mom cried
I don't often cry in movies but I do sometimes.

Ok maybe I teared up a little bit but not much. :)

3. Yes, you will probably tear up at the end. I even cried reading the book.

5. I cried at the end and when...
...well...just when the "Me" had no idea about what to say or do for somebody to make something better...when it really couldn't be made better ever. And he was frozen. And Marley showed him what to do.

That's the best I could describe this scene without a Spoiler. But you'll know what I mean when you see it.

I recommend this one. Even though it made me cry I didn't feel manipulated.

8. Yes, you will cry.
Only someone with a heart of stone wouldn't.

9. You've read the book right?
Marley dies in the end so I'm pretty sure you're going to cry a bit.

because there was only one way it could go.

19. We bring animals into our homes and hearts knowing that our hearts will be broken.
And the rooms in our homes will feel achingly empty.

But there is nothing quite like being loved by a fur-friend. I love my human S.O. but he doesn't do lateral rebounds off the sofa and tremendous vertical leaps when I come home from work.

I pity people who've never been loved by an "animal."
