Water for Elephants

Director Francis Lawrence turned to 1920's Depression era set romantic drama with his third feature. After a tragedy makes a veterinary student to abandons his studies, he joins a circus where he falls in love with the wife of the vicious owner. Based on the novel by Sara Gruen and adapted by Richard LaGravenese, the film's target audience should be pleased with it which stars the heartthrob of the moment, Robert Pattinson who stars along with Reese Witherspoon and Christoph Waltz. The film is a typical Hollywood formula film filled with predictable choices from the story to the cast and crew who have excelled with previous similar material. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
