Critic Reviews
-
David Denby, New Yorker
A pitiable remake of the sloshed "classic" from 1981.
-
David Edelstein, New York Magazine
Russell Brand gives a career-killing performance.

James Berardinelli, ReelViews
It's amazing how a lifeless, pointless remake can provoke pangs of nostalgia about a mediocre movie. Such is the case with Arthur.
-
Justin Chang, Variety
[An] innocuous, blandly therapeutic remake of a comedy that wasn't exactly edgy to begin with.
-
Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
I don't buy the notion that this is all a lavish fantasy to cheer us in troubled times. It's too clueless and condescending for that.
