Box Office Pete Hammond This Arthur feels flat and lifeless, especially when compared to its highly successful predecessor. | 5 | |
Chicago Sunday Times Roger Ebert This Arthur is not as laugh-out-loud funny as the earlier one. | 15 | |
ScreenIt C. Fuchs Overall, the flick is amusing and funny enough to avoid being the feared complete fiasco many imagined. But with the original still in mind and public drunkenness not being as socially acceptable as it was 30 years ago (yes, 30!), this remake is a sober reminder that you can't always bottle success twice. | 8 | |

Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer An irritating, unnecessary remake that demonstrates the libertine charm Russell Brand exudes in supporting roles turn against him when he's star of the show. | 6 | |
