Arthur

This film, starring Russell Brand, Helen Mirren & Jennifer Garner, was an excellent film as it had some side-splitting humour. But, towards the ending, it started to get a wee bit boring; but thats just my opinion. Anyway, the story.
Arthur Bach (Russell Brand) is an irresponsible playboy - despite the fact that he's been told what to do all his life. The culprits are his stern mother (Geraldine James), his housekeeper Hobson (Helen Mirren), and now, much to his dismay, his new bride-to-be Susan (Jennifer Garner). Arthur has been ordered to marry Susan, or suffer the consequences of disobedience - a new life, cut off from all his wealth and privilege. But Arthur doesn't love Susan, and has instead fallen for Naomi (Greta Gerwig), a woman with no money but a good heart. With Russell Brand in hilarious form, it's time to find out which choice Arthur will make. Can he choose love - and lose the safety net his money provides? Or will he settle for marriage to the terrifying Susan? Overall, I would give this film a 3/5 because it was quite funny at times but it got a bit boring near the end- but as I said, that's just my opinion. Thanks for reading my review and don't forget to leave some comments. See you soon!
