can’t really think of a real reason to watch this other than the just-crazy-enough-to-work circus love triangle between robert pattinson, reese witherspoon, and christoph waltz. but to be fair that’s a DAMN GOOD reason
It's handsomely made but when an elephant out-acts the cast you know it's no classic.
listen i just really love robert pattinson and reese witherspoon okay i will watch anything for them
also this poster is beautiful and the elephant was fantastic
for some reason i think this is a cinematic masterpiece and that says a lot about my taste in films
Pattinson has more chemistry with the elephant than with Witherspoon, which makes total sense: the elephant has dat ass
"Wasser für die Elefanten" vermag ein Zeitbild der großen Depression in den USA der frühen 30er Jahre sein...
Der Film zeigt u.a. auch, dass der Zirkus ein Auffangbecken für Heimatlose und Suchende nach dem großen Glück war...
Francis Lawrences vierte Regiearbeit eines Kinofilmes versprach Zauber, Faszination und Dramatik....
Allerdings, bekam ich das nur bedingt, bis gar nicht 🤷🏼♀️
Neben einer sehr seichten, leicht durchschaubaren Story, die stets nur an der Oberfläche kratzt, passte für mich auch die Chemie einfach nicht in dieser Dreiecksgeschichte plus Elefant.
Zudem, Witherspoon bleibt deutlich hinter ihren Möglichkeiten zurück.
Pattinson, naja...stets blass um die Nase, hat mich jetzt auch nicht unbedingt überzeugt (aber, er hat ja auch schon schlechtere Filme gedreht, ohne hier Namen nennen zu…
just waiting for the day that robert pattinson tells me I'm beautiful and I deserve a beautiful life and then proceed to runaway with me and an elephant
The only thing that would’ve made this movie a bit better is if it felt a bit dated.
2000s ROM-COMs, I will miss you forever...
Post-Twilight R-Patz really knew how to win me over: do a movie with an animal, AND my fave, Reese Witherspoon.
