Russell Brand has seemingly rebounded from Katy Perry into a Michael Bay production. He’s played a rockstar version of himself, a privileged version of himself, and at the start of his film career himself if he ever ended up a teacher in a school full of lingerie-clad 25-year-old schoolgirls. But now he’s set to return [...]

But now news from Deadline has Ben Stiller taking over from the comic, [...]
After her tremendous Oscar-winning debut writing Juno back in 2007, Diablo Cody as much as the film became something of an overnight success, with her name suddenly becoming so well known. She’s since written the not-brilliantly-received Megan Fox-starrer Jennifer’s Body, and has reteamed with Juno’s director Jason Reitman for the upcoming Young Adult, which already [...]
We all know Dudley Moore’s infamous performance as Arthur in the 1981 original. He was a spoilt, rich, man-child who had no grasp on the real world, and this is exactly what Russell Brand’s character, Arthur, in the 2011 version of this film is like. Unfortunately, because we’ve already seen this character 20 years ago, [...]

If you’ve seen the original Arthur, there’s not much (if any) point in seeing this remake. Unless, of course, you’re a diehard Russell Brand fan. Perhaps the most complained about problem with Arthur, besides the fact that it’s starring Russell Brand, is the tagline “Meet the world’s only lovable billionaire.” A couple of valid points [...]
