Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
merelyaninnuendo Dumbo3 And A Half Out Of 5Dumbo is a Disney Animated feature reaching successfully for eradicating the difference among the society and its ideology. Despite of having a wafer thin script, the feature never leaves the audience and neither does it allow them to get out from the world that they have fallen within first few minutes. The technical details like songs, background score and animation are amazingly scored on high pitches. The makers being aware of their lack of material, has directed all of their big guns to its finely detailed screenplay that works like a charm in here. The difference between an overstretched plot and elaborated one is clearly visible in here. Although there are few sequences which could have been edited better, but these are minor complication in this huge emotional drama among family, friends and society. It resonates a lot with practicality offering plenty of mutual things for the audience to easily connect with especially all the conversation among the other animals about the protagonist which can easily be matched with the current society that we all reside in. As always, the side characters are perfectly written as they are not only the writers best distraction but also attains a closure of their own track. Dumbo is a heartbreaking tale of a misjudged fellow whose self-discovering journey is depicted in with all heart; all love; all passion.
Hermione Granger I'd really give this 6.5/10 stars, but I often rate movies I really like (but still aren't amazing) 7 stars, so I'm not rounding it up. This movie I don't "really like." It's sweet and heartfelt, but not amazing (except for the animation), incredible, or something you're dying to watch. Flying elephant? What...? Even so, it's sweet and has that beautiful classic touch to it.
Hitchcoc When I hear "Baby of Mine" sung (most recently by Bette Midler), my mind goes back to the little elephant whose mother has been put away for trying to protect her baby. This is a story of relentless bullying by forces dedicated to making life miserable for Dumbo. He is naive and resilient but there is so much cruelty in his life. There is gossiping and small-mindedness by those who hold the power. Meanwhile, Dumbo and his little mouse friend try to find a niche for him in the circus. But he keeps treading on his ears and falling down. The animation is cool and some of the songs are enticing. If you love a story about and underdog (under-elephant?) don't hesitate.
LeonLouisRicci Box-Office Returns aside, it seems that Walt Disney Never Failed to Produce a Bonafide, Enduring, Universally Acclaimed Animated Feature. At least in in the Golden Years."Dumbo" was the Fourth Feature and is Today, as it was initially, Praised by Critics and Moviegoers of All Ages as a Name Your Superlative. When Viewed in the 21st Century it again Wows and Stimulates Audiences with its Classic Charm. The Story, Animation, Songs, and overall Greatness remains as Moderns Embrace the Precious Pachyderm as Their own Sweet, Special Child.In its One Hour Running Time, "Dumbo" Captivates with an Enormous amount of Emotion. There are Lessons Learned and Fun, Frolic, and Danger Under the Big Top. The many Highlights include...The Wisecracking and Tuneful Crows...Pink Elephants on Parade...Dumbo using His Disability to Advantage...and many More.Compared to other Disney Films from the Time Period when viewed Side by Side, it is evident that Costs were Cut. But the Profound Story, the Heartfelt Characterizations, and other Qualities allow "Dumbo" to Proudly Fly Alongside the more Expensive Disney Movies of its Era.
