Russell Brand stars in the remake of the classic of the same name that starred Dudley Moore, Liza Minnelli and John Gielgud. Although the movie is a remake it does not follow the original scrips to the letter and unfortunately this movie does not hit the same mark the original did. Brand gives a good performance but lacks the natural comic abilities that Moore has. Helen Mirren is a great actor, but I have never seen where replacing the original Male actor with a female actress works either. Jennifer Garner is a good actress but she is NOT Liza Minnelli. The movie is good, but I rate it only a 3 because it does not meet the quality of the original.
Wonderful movie, super funny and moving. Helen Mirren is at the top of her game. A must see. Russell Brand is simple remarkable. And Jennifer Garner has never looked so good. The movie is about a spoiled adult and the backlashes of money. Along with never caring about anything until it is almost to late to do so. In a modern time with wealth marring wealth as proposed to the ancient times when wealth married wealth. And the stand that others tried to change with love and excitement.
