One Of Chaplin’s Best; Certainly Underrated
I enjoyed this a lot more the second time when I could see it on a very clear DVD print. I don’t know why that would make a difference with the story, but it did as I found it very good for the entire distance, although that’s just a scant 69 minutes.

In the story, Charlie Chaplin does his normally-great physical slapstick so well that he accidentally becomes a hit at the circus, which is run by a nasty man (Allan Garcia) who regularly beats his sweet step-daughter, played by a very pretty Merna Kennedy. Charlie, of course, gets smitten by her and comes to her rescue.

This movie has a different kind of ending that what you’d normally see for a comedy but it’s inspiring as Chaplin performs a noble deed. (However, Kennedy’s character is in question as she seems satisfied to marry either of two men. Huh?)

Chaplin’s timing and clever slapstick routines never fail to amaze me. Even though silent films aren’t seen by many people these days, it’s works of art like this that will endure forever. This is not of one of Chaplin’s more famous movies…..but it should be. I think it’s one of his best.

Underrated Greatness
First of all, Chaplin was one of the greats. A great visionary of cinema and a genius on and off the camera. Comic timing, sensitive to life, understanding of the common man, Chaplin understood it all.

The Circus, in Chaplin’s genius and timing, is Chaplin’s funniest film that he made. It’s not his best, but it’s his funniest, in my opinion. From beginning to end you will be laughing so hard you will cry. You will laugh so hard your belly will hurt.

Chaplin brings all of his genius and tricks to this one and formulates his best comedy. Must see for all of Chaplin’s genius and laughs.
