I appreciate what I think Crowe was trying to accomplish here with Elizabethtown, but through a combination of missteps it falls very short. In general I like both Bloom and Dunst but feel they are both a bit miscast and present these interestingly written characters poorly. Neither quite succeeds. I very badly wanted to final road trip portion of the film to be great and to be moved by it, but alas it just rung hollow to me and I was not able to connect with it. Sure there were some nice elements and moments here, but overall it just seemed to drag on for far too long.
