ARTHUR
Release: April, 2011
Genre: Romantic Comedy
I got suckered into seeing this movie recently and lost what could have been two very productive hours of my life. Even if the time wasn’t used productively, I’d rather have stayed in the parking lot making a tiny beige Stonehenge out of discarded cigarette butts. Arthur is a remake of the 1981 film, this time starring Russell Brand as the lead unlikable oaf. Honestly, this film could’ve bit the bullet of self-parody and ran under the name of ‘Two Hours (That You Will Never Get Back) of Adventures by Several Wholly Uninteresting, Unlikable People’, and it might have less staggeringly awful. I’m not going to write this review with a really nasty, hateful outlook because it’s fun to be mean. I’m going to write an honest, open review. This movie was terrible.
