Review of Elizabethtown (2005) by Joshh. — 30 Jun 2006
Elizabethtown is a movie for the analytical/sentimental crowd. You can't watch it just once and get it all. There are several subtle metaphorical points that pop out during the second and third viewing.
The critics gave it such a low rating and even labled it a fiasco. I find this ironic because the main character states in the movie that "success, not greatness, is the only god the entire world serves.
" In essence, Crowe turned a beginning business fiasco into ultimate greatness in the movie by way of the main charater realizing what truly matters in life. On a deeper level, the movie is much more than just a love story.
It really is a genious work of Crowe's.
