After causing a loss of almost one billion dollars in his company, the shoe designer Drew Baylor decides to commit suicide. However, in the exact moment of his act of despair, he receives a phone call from his sister telling him that his beloved father had just died in Elizabethtown, and he should bring him back since his mother had problem with the relatives of his father. He travels in an empty red eye flight and meets the attendant Claire Colburn, who changes his view and perspective of life.
Elizabethtown After losing his job, shoe designer Drew Baylor contemplates suicide. Then his life changes when he meets an optimistic airline attendant. Orlando Bloom and Kirsten Dunst star in a film written and directed by Cameron Crowe
Cameron Crowe has never been the most disciplined of directors. Well known for being unable to let go of his projects, his Oscar-winning Almost Famous (2000) spawned a DVD 'Bootleg Cut' that ran over two-and-a-half hours long. His latest, the wistful romantic comedy Elizabethtown, had 12 minutes pruned from it after a tour of the autumn film festival circuit. Sadly, it's not enough; like life in the eponymous Kentucky town, Crowe's fil...
mmm, i actuallly liked it!
...unlike most people who have left reviews. I liked almost famous and was very unsure about this, as it does look a touch lightweight. I'm glad to say that it's a really good film, with dunst in top form and nicely shot and directed scenes. It's quite funny in parts, typically cool in others, touching at times and always holds your interest. As for the complaint about the flags, well, have you been to the states? that's what it's actually like! So no problem there, just enjoy the film and don't be so bloody high and mighty, its's a decent film. Bloom was alright in this, not great but not bad either, which is fine, this isn't an acting masterclass, just...
What's the difference between a failure and a fiasco? That's the first question Orlando Bloom's character, Drew Baylor, asks himself in Cameron Crowe's Elizabethtown, and the question he keeps asking throughout. It also echoes some of the critical response that followed the movie's premiere at the Venice and Toronto film festivals, making it seem uncannily prescient and self-aware.
In Toronto, Elizabethtown was introduced with a disclaimer, and Crowe has since trimmed it by about 15 minutes. But I doubt the edit will change the minds of anyone who didn't like it the first time around. The new version remains, in many ways, a mess of a movie ??? but a warm...

yes this is a good movie - but really 4 reviews in 7 hours!!!
this movie has been reviewed by one person 3 times in the last year!!!
how about reviewing (and i presume watching) some of the new releases!!!
filling the review box up with 'duplicate' reviews is meaningless and off putting to those who write reviews and then see them totally pushed off the screen with this kinda crap. QED.
To me this film was awesome the first time round. I was feeling really low, was alone and in need of comfort. I could really relate to the themes and characters of the film and it made me really laugh and cry also - which took me by surprise - especially the part where the mom dances for her husband. A really good movie. May not be for all but still worth watching.
The acting is immaculate, but I will agree that it's not the best movie in the world. That being said, Orlando Bloom is in it and he's ridiculously gorgeous, which would make it worth watching even if it weren't "decent" on it's own. It may not be my favourite feel-good film, but I have seen it four or five times and still find it quite tolerable, if not flat-out enjoyable.
I think anyone could enjoy it for at least a one time viewing.
it wasnt a bad movie but it wasnt anything extra special either. both orlando and kristen have stared in better movies!! the movie overall was ok, worth a couple of watches!! 8/10
With near Steel Magnolia dialogue (minus the star power) & a killer soundtrack, this is a fabulous romantic comedy. I am totally shocked at the number of folks who found it slow & boring. It makes me wonder at the literacy of our Country these days.
We meet Bloom's character amidst a classic business debacle (a fiasco), done with hilarious self narration, a risk dramatic device but the filmmaker pulls it off.
Then the unexpected transition.
We meet Dunst's character in the transition, and we suspect that this dingy chatterbox blonde isn't as dumb as she may appear.
The Characters that populate the hometown (The Title) of Bloom's Dad are immediately infectious and as the tale unfolds, the tension of the opening
starts to fade by comparrison. Craziness ensues, as well as the hint of romance,
when Bloom's Mom (Sarandon) shows up & real madness comences.
The move toward the consumation of the romance starts with a road journey and the heart of the soundtrack, which is a retro bombshell. The conclusion is as sweet as it is inevitable.
A well crafted film, evidently not for younger less patient viewers who won't get it until they grow up a bit.
I thought this movie was great, I can't understand the negative comments. Dunst character was charming and Orlando Bloom was terrific, no accounting for taste I suppose
I liked this movie a lot. It was very deep and touching. It is about how we all need something to live for.. "happy is he who learns to endure what he cannot change." There is so much in life that happens to us and around us that we cannot change, but if we can learn to endure it, then perhaps we can find a little happiness, and, yes, maybe even love.!
it's worth to watch! rate* 7,5/10*
