Arthur the King

"A surprisingly pleasing way to spend an hour and a half."

"Cheesy but charming."

"While it doesn’t stray from a predictable path, the journey is rarely dull."

"An underdog story that hits the expected beats."

"(A) sturdy, entertaining film."

"A perfectly fine way to spend 90 minutes at the movie theatre, especially for dog lovers."

"Carries enough savvy filmmaking, tension and adventure thrills to coast slightly above something like A Dog’s Purpose."

"Arthur the King has loads of clichés from which to choose, and it chooses them all."

"Spectacular stunts, cute dog are neutered by predictable story."

"Yet another star vehicle for Mark Wahlberg to unconvincingly sell himself as a likable everyman."

"Rather than truly being inspiring or moving, (it) manipulates and frustrates."

"Like Arthur himself, the results are sweet and dignified. Watch it on a flight."

"A royal letdown."

"Part gooey dog drama, part survivalist joyride."

"A sports drama that will leave you cheering for more."

"It is really three movies in one, all watchable, but the pieces do not always mesh."
