Arthur
2011
Recasting the 1981 comedy classic starring Dudley Moore, this romantic chuckler chronicles the dilemma faced by philanderer Arthur Bach (Russell Brand) -- whether to give up a respectable life and an inheritance of millions for the sake of romance. Jennifer Garner co-stars as Susan Johnson, the gorgeous socialite that Arthur's family has chosen for him. Greta Gerwig plays Naomi, the girl who steals Arthur's heart in the meantime.
Synopsis compliments of Netflix
Russell Brand manages to deliver a fair amount of clever yet not silly lines - a solid performance. The rest of the cast is what really make this movie unexpectedly good though. Almost all the actors are perfect for their roles - a fun film.
