Overall, while adults will find this film tolerable, the kids are sure to lap it up with full gusto.

Film’s visual scale towers above many of its obvious flaws, but doesn’t quite lift it above Burton’s legacy of creating magical realism in the past. While there are problems such as predictability, caricature characters and a sluggish pace, ‘Dumbo’ has its moments. Overall, it’s a harmless family entertainer for children of all ages.

Cute and appealing but not Burton’s style…Tim Burton’s craft is more simplistic here – even though the film is a sort of circus fantasia with all the aspects of an imagination running wild.

This fantasy adventure film, with all the trappings of a typical Disney fare, is the story of a baby elephant, who uses his extra-large ears to fly.
