Top CriticThe ONLY John Wayne film not currently available, and well worth seeing.
02/17/08
This big, sprawling film, beautifully filmed in Cinerama, has Wayne as the owner/manager of a small-time circus.
10/22/07
Top CriticJohn Wayne goes to the Big Top in a Samuel Bronston produced film that has the Duke's role custom-made to fit his rooting-tooting western persona.
03/05/06
Begun by Capra and Completed by Hathaway, Circus World is one of John Wayne's weakest star vehicles, neither entertaining as an adventure nor convincing as a family melodrama.
11/09/05
Heaven help all those other people who, deep down, remain to be convinced of the irresistibility of the circus. They're in for a terrible jolt.
