You could do worse than Arthur the King, which offers approximately zero surprises, but enough cute-dog shenanigans to make it worthy of family movie night.

This is not the great film it should have been, and it really could have been something with the right direction.

Full Review | Original Score: 5/10 | Apr 8, 2024

It does nothing that we would not expect from an experience of this kind, developing its narrative in a dutiful way, and extracting a couple of tears to certain members of the audience. Full review in Spanish.

An admirable tale of resilience and unlikely friendships...

Mark Wahlberg delivers a powerful performance as the out-of-luck captain who wants to make a comeback no matter what.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Mar 29, 2024

A more humane interpretation of events would've at least questioned the wisdom of a career spent so ferociously chasing one's own tail—though self-prescribed incredible journeys are rarely about the destination.

With the Easter holidays approaching, “Arthur the King” is truly a film for the whole family.

Who doesn't love a movie about a man and his dog!

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10 | Mar 24, 2024

Nothing about Arthur the King moved me in the slightest, aside from a few death-defying moments of racing that felt more like action set pieces and less like moments that belong in a story about a dog that might die at the end.

There are heavy Lassie vibes as Wahlberg attempts to communicate with the dog. It gets vexing. But kids will love it while adults will look past it, as director Simon Cellan Jones keeps his eye on the prize, delivering a feel-good movie.

The dog has enough personality to give the production some bite. It is just that the bark needed a little more work.

One of the wonderful things about this film is watching the transformation of Wahlberg's Michael from a self-absorbed, disgraced athlete to a real team player, who's more interested in the welfare of his teammates and their surprise mascot, than winning.

It's safe and cheesy at times, but in terms of family night out at the movies, it's a solid pick.

An inspiring adventure tale of friendship, compassion, and perseverance.

If you've got a soft spot for dogs in movies, this movie will hook you right in the feels. The story moves along nicely and gives each character enough arc to grow through their challenging trek as they race across the country. A must-see for dog lovers.

I might not have otherwise sought this one out, but I wasn’t sorry I saw it, either.

This film is not just inspiring, it is emotional, exciting, and exhilarating as viewers will be on the edge of their seats and holding their breath as the events unfold.

Film by film, Mr. Wahlberg is using his pull to create a tribute to the world’s tough, decent, humble working guys.

Full Review | Mar 19, 2024

A modest film that says a lot about what winning really means.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 19, 2024

Maybe the movie will direct some eyes toward the existence of the Arthur Foundation, but while the movie goes down easy enough it is, on the whole, a bit unsatisfying.
