Disney has continued their trend of live-action remakes of their animated classics with “Dumbo”. The film follows the same premise as the 1941 classic in that a baby elephant with giant ears is born into a travelling circus. Like in the animated film he is separated from his mother and soon becomes an unlikely circus act when it is discovered...

1941’s Dumbo was never a favorite of mine. It’s a great movie with a sweet message (as most Disney flicks), but I was curious to see how a remake of a 60-min film would develop. Obviously, changes to the story not only will occur, but they need to. People have to stop...

The visuals are done well, but this movie is crowded and there wasn't enough working room to make this the great movie I'd hoped for.

Can't believe I got cheated out of Pink Elephants on Parade like that. Literally the only reason I watched this.
_Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible._

Straight off the bat: I do not like the 1941 original, which is one of Disney's weakest animated films in my opinion. So that's worth bearing in mind.
2019's 'Dumbo' surpasses the '41 film with ease, it's admittedly a low bar. There's actually a storyline to this one which is pleasing, while the live-action nature really helps suck...

After WW1, a struggling American circus discovers they have a star attraction on hand, a big-eared baby elephant that can fly! Colin Farrell plays the one-armed elephant trainer, Danny DeVito the circus owner, Michael Keaton a Walt Disney-like entrepreneur and Eva...

**It's not perfect, it's not extraordinary, but I liked what I saw, and I think the film manages to deliver what it promises.**
In 1941, Disney debuted one of its most outstanding feature films and the shortest. Relatively cheap to produce and without great ambitions, the film was a success and even the US entry into World War II did not turn...

Way better than the animation movie. Great for families. Dumbo is pretty cute I can't lie. Has a really good cast as well.

Both the original animated movie "Dumbo" from 1941 and the live-action remake from 2019 are praised for capturing the essence of the beloved characters and delivering compelling storylines. The animated film introduced audiences to memorable characters like Timothy Mouse, Mrs. Jumbo, and the crows, creating a timeless classic that resonated with...
