Rating: 2.5/5 -- There's no doubting the luscious detail and feel for the period, but the love triangle that inevitable kicks in is a little too rote, even for those in a forgiving mood. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- Without Waltz, this might qualify as perhaps the dullest circus movie ever made, dragged down by a sappy script and a soppy romance. Full Review

[Water for Elephants] is an old-fashioned romance done with loving period detail. Full Review

3 stars out of 5 -- [Witherspoon] brings a nicely nuanced ambivalence to her role.

This colourful romantic melodrama gives the brooding Robert Pattinson a break from his customary vampire roles... Full Review

While ultimately forgettable, it's a pleasant enough diversion while it's happening. Full Review

Rating: C -- Lacks the romantic luster needed between its leads to match the enchanting, saga-like feel of the time. Full Review

Product Description:

A handsome veterinary student falls for a married circus performer in this romantic drama adapted from author Sara Gruen's best-selling novel, and directed by Francis Lawrence (I AM LEGEND). When Jacob (Robert Pattinson) meets Marlena (Reese Witherspoon), it's love at first sight -- their shared affections for an extraordinary elephant stirring profound feelings of compassion within both of them. Theirs is a love that could span lifetimes, though the wrath of Marlena's dangerously domineering husband, August (Christoph Waltz), threatens to spell tragedy for all involved.
