Water for Elephants (2011)

 
A veterinary student abandons his studies after his parents are killed and joins a traveling circus as their vet.
 
OK melodrama set in a circus environment has a good cast and gets an old-fashioned treatment, but isn't too exciting.

Maltin**1/2: "Waltz's character is puzzling at best, and the love story never catches fire, but the film does offer a beautiful evocation of Depression-era America and circus life..."
