Movie Review

The outcomes of the major plot points have not changed, only the situations that we at that memorable moments. In this way it succeeds Arthur, offers us a reminder of the emotion and excitement of the original 1981 film. But while the story remains largely the same, many of the small details and events changed for the worse. Supporting characters are off to humiliate reduced slapstick comedy dialogue sessions, intelligent cut and replaced with a strange joke. He crashes the Batmobile into a golden statue of the bull devisable really the biggest players are introduced to provide? At best, this idea called Arthur memories of a classic comedy - in the worst case, questioning the need for remakes in the first place.


Heirs of the colossal power of Bach, Arthur Bach (Russell Brand) floats through life with little worries, less responsibility, not a moment of sobriety. Constantly drunk, Arthur frivolous spending his days spent huge amounts of money and his nights to take on the growing evil antics should exist his entire devoted nanny Hobson Helen Mirren. Agreed the agony of Playboy and are reluctant to the marriage - as his mother Vivienne (Geraldine James) presents him with an ultimatum - marry snobby socialite Susan Johnson (Jennifer Garner), or lose $ 950 million inheritance. Immediately after his presentation to the Susan reluctantly euphoric, is a kindred soul to Naomi (Greta Gerwig), a guide with such a love for spontaneity and carefree enjoyment. Now, torn between his morals and shameless woman in love, Arthur must try for the first time in his life to grow.


It's hard to remake, to judge from the so much like his predecessor. In the case of Arthur, the characters are still interesting the story is even more soothing, and the atmosphere is still fun. Even if the jokes of the individual (and not all of them, both), each important action that have made very few new elements changed - looks like the box. For this reason, the film is incredibly derivative, repetitive and unoriginal. 30 years is not enough time for the filmmakers to get enough to develop alternative ideas for this remake, it's worth.


Arthur toys are easily modified, a graduate of a Batmobile, a DeLorean from Back to the Future, Scooby Mystery Machine and The Dukes of Hazzard General Lee. He is also a destructive drunk and wants to wife Susan is an antagonist, rather than just boring. Brand tries to not even attempt his own version of Dudley Moore, Mirren can play the Gielgud, and Gerwig to Liza Minnelli: But ultimately too much the same. The love story and situations are identical, so that the whole ordeal a distraction - the same people saying the same situations from a different movie to see. The theme of aging, recognizing the power of love over money and the independence of the family are still there and make as much fun, and investigates the involvement of the painful tragedy of the airy antics. But there are real improvements, and almost no large differences (Brand will strip down to the skivvies Moore more than ever), which is epic in a superfluous.
