10/10.
Saw this movie as part of mystery movie Mondays at Regal Cinema with my family. Great movie we all agree! There's happy parts, sad parts, a real rollercoaster and tearjerker of a movie. Worth watching even if you're not a big Mark Wahlberg fan and don't like Marky Mark. Glad to have seen this movie! Mystery movie Mondays at Regal Cinemas are great. I liked seeing the real pictures of the real people and dog at the end.

I remember seeing this incredible real-life story in the media a few years ago, and was really pleased to see that it had been taken to the screen. The movie is exceptionally uplifting, has some strong competitive/adventure drama, and gives great portrayals of teamwork and camaraderie under arduous conditions.
Arthur really is a special dog. Why and how he followed, caught up, and stayed with the race team is a heart touching mystery. It's amazing how much impact he seemed to have on the team.
Arthur the King will definitely make your eyes glisten. Who can resist an inspiring movie about a wonderful dog?

In 2015, Michael Light (Mark Wahlberg) leads a team of extreme racers. His driven stubborn decision ends their race early. His combative second Leo (Simu Liu) posts an unflattering pic. It's 3 years later and he's struggling with normal life. He decides to race one last time. He recruits veteran racer Chik (Ali Suliman) with a bad knee, Olivia (Nathalie Emmanuel), and Leo who has since become a social media influencer. Olivia is only racing for her legendary climber father who is dying from cancer. Then there is a dog.
This is very fine. It's based on a true story. It is a standard underdog sports movie. Heck, they even have a dog. It is sweet. It is sincere. There are some good adventure thrills. The zip line scene looks great on top of the thrills. Again, it has a dog. It's great.

Fantastic film with superb direction. The landscapes are stunning, the acting is top-notch, and Arthur steals the show! It's a must-watch; you'll both smile and shed a few tears.. The performances are incredibly authentic, making every moment feel real and impactful. Arthur's portrayal is especially memorable, bringing depth and charisma to the screen. This movie is more than entertainment; it's an experience that stays with you, sparking conversations and leaving a lasting impression.................. Don't miss out on this masterpiece that promises smiles, tears, and an array of emotions in between.!!
3.5 out of 5 stars.
Arthur the King is a pretty fair adventure film following Michael (Mark Wahlberg) who his team go on a endurance race thats 400 mile some race that takes them across the Dominican Republic. While during the race they come across a stray dog that guides and follows them through the race.
Plot was great. It has a bit of heart with Michael bonding with the dog during the race which the dog saved one of them from falling off a cliff. While they travel through rough terrain. The story can be a bit emotional for animal lovers.
It has a great cast ensemble lead by Mark Wahlberg.
The direction could have been better which was a bit generic for a adventure movie. Its a wonderful story just the direction did not offer anything new.

- TriviaWith the real Arthur the dog living until December 2020, six full years passed since the race that brought them together. Mikael Lindnord (the real life racer) has not adopted another dog since Arthur's passing. Furthermore, Arthur's death occurred just weeks before Arthur the King began filming.
- GoofsAt the zip line the rigs are not secured with a line, but when Chik arrives at the other end, a security line is connected to the rig.
When Olivia gets stuck, you can see one of the lines break, but moments later the line is fine.
