Arthur

Rating: 6

I love Russell Brand in Get Him To The Greek. It was the perfect venue to demonstrate his range of talents. Arthur is fine and Helen Mirren kicks butt, but I don't think Brand needs to play it so demure to show his sweeter side. He did it perfect with the self-unaware Aldous Snow character who was vapid and arrogant plus vulnerable and insightful in moments. The cynic in me senses the Hollywood machine is inhibiting Russell Brand. I sure hope not. He is great.
