Review of Elizabethtown (2005) by Sairam. — 27 Mar 2006
I typically like Cameron Crowe but this movie is all over the place and never really works anywhere it tries to go. The actors barely believe it, which makes it hard for the audience to and after it's all over one is left with a pile of sentimental mush from one too many "lessons learned".
Cliched storyline and a stalker-esque heroine (Dunst) who is lonely and persistent to console (Bloom), most apparently to resolve her own issues. Dunst is too slimy to be charming and Bloom never gets beyond a blank stare to convey the depth of emotion the character would likely be feeling.
- Elizabethtown is a big yucky mess.
