Review of The Greatest Show on Earth (1952) by Lord N — 25 Apr 2010
Do you ever have people tell you how much a certain movie sucks and then you watch it and go "they're exactly right". that was my experience with this film.I cannot deny the visuals of this movie (it is probably the only reason that it won).
the rest of the film was horrible. There were two okay parts about this movie, Jimmy Stewart and the visuals. nothing else. The acting was bad, the plot was bad, it was just a bad movie. there is little else to say.
the thing is is that the film thinks it is really good. you can tell the film makers thought that they were making a great movie (and they did win Best Picture incorrectly might I add). Final Verdict: it sucked.
the Best Picture win was a HUGE mistake. Replacement Winner (as of right now): The Quiet Man.
