The final shots are so good I think the blood rushed to my head and knocked me out. I woke up an hour later in a sweat in a part of town I had never been. A sign saying "Circus - Next Week" stood above me. In my fugue state, I knew.

Chaplin performs some of the most impressive physical comedy of his career here, so despite a couple of overlong routines, most of the slapstick is tremendous. Two highlights include the Tramp's stunning high-wire sequence and his accidental entrapment in a lion cage, yet somehow it's still the touching, bittersweet ending that prevails as the film's finest moment.

Not nearly as imaginative and inventive as The Gold Rush, but also - thanks in part to Chaplin not ruining it with a voice-over - a more successful straight-up comedy, and with a better ending to boot.

Try as I might I just can't seem to get into Charlie Chaplin films. The physical comedy is funny most of the time, but the drama fails miserably. Had this been a 30 minute short instead of a 70 minute feature I would most likely have rated it much higher.
