Dumbo (2019) | Ratings & Reviews

"Dumbo, the animated 1941 Disney classic, gets the Tim Burton treatment in this live-action remake starring Colin Farrell and Danny Devito. Despite a creaky script, it's still Burton's best family movie in ages."

Flicks, Adam FrescoFlicks

"It transforms a miraculous tale into a routine story by weighing it down with a lot of nuts and bolts it didn't need."

VarietyVariety

"There are thrills and feels but this reimagination of the delightful animation doesn't take flight often enough."

Total FilmTotal Film

"With production designer Rick Heinrichs, Burton forsakes his beloved gothic touches for an art deco style that lends it all a Gatsby-esque decadence."

Time OutTime Out

"This has been painfully de-tusked."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"Even if the story starts to sag a little before the inevitable big finale, just relax and look at the screen. Every frame of this film could be taken home and hung on your wall – it's that pretty."

StuffStuff

"This live-action re-imagining of Disney's 1941 animated classic may be the sweetest film Tim Burton has ever made. It's also the safest."

Rolling StoneRolling Stone

"...despite a few underdeveloped characters and a score that occasionally gushes like a broken mains pipe, Dumbo is a tissue factory worth of sadness dried by a big top of colourful delights."

New Zealand HeraldNew Zealand Herald

"The filmmaker's overstuffed visual imagination and appetite for sinister gloom all but trample the enchantment of a tale that, at heart, is simple and whimsical."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"Come for the super-cute elephant, stay for Keaton and DeVito's glorious reunion."

Empire MagazineEmpire Magazine

"Is 'Dumbo' a fully-fleshed-out film with basic components like character arcs or conflict? Not entirely, no."
