Title: i really wanted to like this movie
Review: Steve Gordon wrote and directed one of my favorite films of all time in "Arthur" (1981). As his only other writing credit, I was hoping this was a hidden gem, and eagerly purchased it. Not only was Gordon behind it, but it stars Henry Winkler and was directed by Carl Reiner- and the plot would at least sound compelling! I wanted so badly to fall in love with it, but I couldn't. The protagonist will frustrate you, the humor will fall flat, and if you've seen Arthur, you'll wonder how the same mind could have dreamt this one up.That being said, go watch Arthur (the original, with Dudley Moore- not the Russell Brand remake). I've never met someone who didn't enjoy it.
Is the review positive or negative?
