Movie Reviews

Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Dennis SchwartzAn elephant-based comedy that forgets to be funny.
Austin Chronicle - 7/10 by Robert FairesWith the warmth of Elliott Davis' cinematography and The Band and the Staple Singers on the score, Larger Than Life has much that's appealing for an older, old-fashioned crowd.
eFilmCritic.com - 6/10 by Scott WeinbergOne of Bill Murray's least enjoyable (and gimmickiest) experiments.
Boston Globe - 6/10 by Matthew GilbertNot terribly funny, but the intimations of an older, saltier America in the picaresque plot make this watchable.
Washington Post - 6/10 by Rita KempleyThe elephant, whose last film was Operation Dumbo Drop, steals the three-ring circus with its charming personality and an amazing 50-command repertoire.
Los Angeles Times - 6/10 by John AndersonDisgracing itself only with McConaughey's over-extended bit as a psychotic trucker, the film delivers more or less comfortably on what you'd expect, then sits down for a rest.
San Francisco Chronicle - 6/10 by Edward GuthmannLarger Than Life isn't as bad as it sounds, mostly because Murray is so likable and fundamentally incapable of not being funny.
ReelViews - 6/10 by James BerardinelliIsn't loaded with promise, but at least the producers had the good sense to hire Bill Murray. Jack is the kind of irritable, self- absorbed guy that Murray can play perfectly, and the comedian's presence in Larger than Life lifts it to a considerably higher level than it might have otherwise attained.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch - 5/10 by Harper BarnesWhile it may sound like pairing Murray with a pachyderm couldn't fail, Larger Than Life suffers from a stifling air of blandness.
Variety - 4/10 by Todd McCarthyHarmless, but also, unfortunately, almost entirely mirthless, this putative comedy about an unsuspecting man obliged to transport a pachyderm cross-country aspires to a winsome charm that never crystallizes, leaving what’s onscreen to wilt before it ever blossoms.
