In an attempt to save the queen from the evil nefarious Maltazard, who kidnapped her, Arthur, a young courageous guy, goes and does his best after the queen told him her place.
Freddie Highmore revisits his role as Arthur with ease, but it's the adults in the film that stumble. Even veteran actors like Mia Farrow phone in their performances.
Besson deserves some sort of award for casting Lou Reed and Iggy Pop as its villains, but the script and direction are all over the place and it never really comes together
