Disney's Dumbo (2019 film)

One of the most iconic Disney legends has brought back to life by the hands of visionary director Tim Burton and the 2019 live-action rebirth of Dumbo, the world's first flying elephant, promises to soar through new heights as one of the must watch films in the Spring season.

Disney's Dumbo (2019 film)

Starring Colin Farrell, Michael Keaton, Danny DeVito, and Eva Green, among many others, the new Dumbo movie feels very different to the old Disney cartoon film it was based on and whereas the original featured some talking mouse and some crows, this film doesn't because it has one flying elephant, human cast of characters and that's it.

Dumbo was teased and taunted by many because of its very large ears but when they learned that Dumbo can fly with its massive ears, the already struggling circus comes back to life but with all of the fame Dumbo gets comes with a massive price; its freedom.

Like I mentioned, the live-action Dumbo film shares half in common with the original cartoon and because it had no mice and crows in the cast, some people would truly believe that Tim Burton must have ruined the story of Dumbo and labeled as witchcraft and sacrilege as is but despite being a treason to the original, it's still has some Disney spark to captivate the whole family from start to finish and this is where the magic of Dumbo truly shines. 

High or low, the new Dumbo movie may not be the Dumbo every Disney enthusiasts expect but it's truly one of the must-watch movies to enjoy in the Spring season. The more you know.

My rating: 3.9 out of 5.
