Movie Reviews

EmanuelLevy.Com - 9/10 by Emanuel LevyEnjoyable trash: Carol Reed's circus melodrama is one of his most commercially successful but artistically weakest film; there's more erotic tension between Burt Lancaster and Tony Curtis than between either man and love interest Gina Lillobrigida.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Dennis SchwartzTacky circus thriller and overwrought love triangle melodrama.
User Review - 10/10 by Bill WThis has excellent trapeze action in it. Lancaster had a background as a circus acrobat and as far as I know he did all the high stuff himself. The story is simple. Tony Curtis' character wants to do a 'triple.' I don't remember if he makes it or not. You'll have to watch it.
User Review - 10/10 by Jo YThey all had to learn how to do their tricks..good movie.
User Review - 8/10 by Alan WIt's those crazy kids from Sweet Smell of Success, back for another bite of the wacky big top apple! Guffaws and chortles ensue!
User Review - 8/10 by Jeff DBurt Lancaster is excellent in this oft forgotten Carol Reed film.
User Review - 8/10 by John DI must admit, with some guilt, that I found this rather enjoyable. Sure, it's predictable and fraught with melodrama, but the cast carries it well. I'm still a little surprised that Carol Reed directed a circus movie.
User Review - 8/10 by Allan CCarol Reed directed this circus story involving a love triangle between former trapeze great, Burt Lancaster, and his portage, Tony Curtis, and love interest Gina Lollobrigida. It's a smart story and is a better than average love triangle that is more complicated than two men vying for the love of the same woman. Although the story could have been transplanted to just about any setting, the circus always seems like a silly setting to me for film (outside of horror films like "Freaks" or "Funhouse"), but it does seem to work here and I do prefer this film to DeMille's overblown "The Greatest Show on Earth" that was release four years before this one. And one interesting bit of trivia, in real life, Lancaster performed in the circus before going in to acting and he took the opportunity to do perform all of his own students in this film.
User Review - 8/10 by Joel AFun, gripping and sizzling with chemistry between all of the leads!
