My Movie Review: The movie is all circus spectacle that promise flying elephant to take flight:) Dumbo is mischievous as it soar unconsciously damage some property and can cause harm to the people around also sweetness turns into bitter when the world his in become darkly cruel:() We watch this kind of movie to delight our sight because of its visually impressive premise and the adventure that comes along with it yet we end up expecting more than what we bargain for! Honestly I like how it turned out in the end going to the jungle with his mother and get to show off his flying skills among the elephants below it's cute as touching high waterfall felt profound:) Eva Green is flawless her character has its own sense of wonder as she put a show every time she appears surprise in rehearsal riding the elephant putting tough exterior into a gentle heart:) Michael Keaton is an actor that puts the magic into madness as his amusement burn in flames!

Movie News: Tim Burton’s “Dumbo” feels like one of the big-eared baby elephant’s early flights: It’s adorable and earnest but it causes a lot of commotion, it only sporadically, haltingly soars. Burton’s live-action incarnation of the 1941 animated Disney classic consists of pieces of better Burton movies stitched together. With his oversized ears that make him the subject of both awe and ridicule, Dumbo is a classic Burton misfit the kind of character the director has focus in twisted yet kindhearted fashion for the entirety of his career. Specifically, the century-old circus setting can’t help but call to mind “Big Fish,” with Danny DeVito once again serving as ringleader. “Dumbo” offers a “Batman Returns” reunion, with both DeVito and Keaton, albeit with their hero and villain roles reversed. And music from Burton’s decades-long collaborator Danny Elfman is frequently reminiscent of Elfman’s haunting score, for “Edward Scissorhands!”
