Michael T @DaleK72 Jul 11, 2026 I shouldn’t rate Carnival Story since I viewed the movie at around the age of 11. All I can say is that I enjoyed it then. Apparently, I was easily entertained based upon the negative reviews from experienced movie critics. See more steve d @RT35616104 Jan 30, 2023 A melodramatic mess.

It's a completely dumb story and really the only reason to watch is for camp value. However, I did like the scenes where Baxter learns how to high dive. Those scenes felt like a magician revealing their tricks and were quite fun.

In this regard, this is because the film has such a boring atmosphere that it's difficult to follow the plot. The film's biggest problem is that it's technically outdated, and it even looks outdated. The plot isn't really bad, but it's boring, as are the characters. The performances aren't very special, mainly because the dated style of acting. Suffice it to say, everything about the film is very outdated, and, in the case of this film, that makes it harder to enjoy the film because there isn't much that could possibly make it interesting. It might be worth seeing once for curiosity's sake, but as far as I'm concerned, that's about it. See more Read all reviews
