Overrated one-joke comedy.

rotten:
So little care has gone into the characterizations, the structure, and the situations that the film merely feints at significant comedy.

fresh:
Arthur is a sparkling entertainment which attempts, with a large measure of success, to resurrect the amusingly artificial conventions of 1930s screwball romantic comedies.
