Elizabethtown

How could you not like Elizabethtown? Impossible. So many great scenes. The never-ending phone conversation, the part where Orlando Bloom looks at the stove burner and runs to the funeral home, the road trip home where he lets the ashes fly into the wind while that amazing Elton John song plays in the background, need I go on? My only criticism is that it's possibly too much content for one movie. I could see this as two separate movies, one for the love story, another for the father's funeral. It's sprawling and meandering, for sure, but I didn't mind the lack of focus. The humorous details and random detours are part of the movie's charm.
