 Cute, but old news February 25, 2008
The original "Arthur" is a classic, but this sequel is not as iconic. Arthur 2 is cute, but not all that fuffy. Even Dudley Moore, drunk acting was too staged and us inspired. Overall, I'd recommend it if you liked the first installment, but don't expect to much.
 Second Only to Arthur 1 May 13, 2007
Dudley and Liza together again is amust see..
Very satisfied.
Where's my fabricated half inch pipe? March 19, 2007
This movie is excellent, and probably much better than any subsequent work done by Moore. My kids love it, especially his lamentation in the bar after being fired. I have to admit that I never was a big Moore fan - his work done with Peter Cook was a bit offensive, and this movie proves that humour need not offend.

I'm not sure what everyone is talking about. I thought that this movie was great. For the one who gave a synopsis that Arthur and Linda weren't happily married didn't watch the movie. That was not the case at all.
This movie has all the same characters including Burt Johnson, Arthurs fiance from the original's father. Burt Johnson is still continually trying to get Arthur to marry Susan. He makes it so Arthur looses his all of his money. Arthur and Linda continually try to find an place to live..Burt gets them thrown out. Arthur tries to get a job...he gets fired because of Burt Johnson. Susan confronts Linda and Linda realizes that they are not going to give up, so Linda gives up fighting for her and Arthur.
I love this movie. Sometime I think that I like it more then the original because it's a more believable story then the original. Its more "down to earth"
I would recommend this to anyone.

That`s Norwegian for "Ooops"....
This is a tiresome "pastiche" in which Dudley Moore has lost the charms from 1981 and is just plain annoying. This happens with drunks in real life as well.... the charms and fun just escapes them when they reach the middleage and still refuses any kind of commitment...
This is a needless sequel. The only reason it was made must have been because the stars filmcareers had come to a halt... It`s like a tiresome homemovie...
Still, Liza Minnelli is a pleasure to see(though there is no depth in her charcter as well)...
They ALL should have known better....
