YMMV / Arthur (2011)

Go To

  • Tear Jerker: As in the original, Hobson's death. The way Arthur tries to wake her, and his immediate recoil after touching her cold hand breaks your heart. In a later scene, a broken and drunken Arthur speaks to Naomi.
    Arthur: My Mum died.
  • Unintentional Period Piece: Early on reporters question Arthur's frivolous spending in the midst of a recession, and later his stuffy British mother mentions the current "chocolate-colored" President of the United States, with Arthur noting that she probably shouldn't use that term to describe him. These bits mark the film as taking place very early in The New '10s.
