Sinopses(1)
Da Disney e do visionário realizador Tim Burton, a nova e extraordinária aventura de ação real Dumbo, desenvolve-se a partir do clássico e acarinhado conto, onde as diferenças são celebradas, a família é valorizada e os sonhos ganham asas. O dono do circo, Max Medici (Danny DeVito) convoca a ex-estrela, Holt Farrier (Colin Farrell) e os seus filhos, Milly (Nico Parker) e Joe (Finley Hobbins), para cuidarem de um elefante recém-nascido, cujas orelhas enormes fazem dele motivo de piada, num circo já em declínio. Mas, quando descobrem que Dumbo consegue voar, o circo volta à ribalta, atraindo o persuasivo empresário V.A. Vandevere (Michael Keaton), que recruta o peculiar ser para o seu mais recente parque de diversão, o Dreamland. Dumbo eleva-se para novos voos ao lado da encantadora e espetacular artista aérea, Colette Marchant (Eva Green), até Holt descobrir que atrás de todo o brilho, a Dreamland está repleta de segredos sombrios.

Dumbo, the giant-eared elephant, was born in a failing circus. At first he is thought to be a monster, but when it turns out that he can fly thanks, everything changes. When Dumbo and the circus are bought by a cynical businessman, everyone thinks they are in for a golden time. But the opposite is true. Tim Burton's new live-action Disney film is a surprisingly disjointed film that I'm not sure who it was intended for. The humour is lacking, Dumbo himself is cute, but unfortunately much of the plot revolves around the human characters, whose stories are not very funny or interesting, and are also quite serious for a fairy tale. The elephant hero is fine, but overall this remake is awfully mediocre, with no ideas and no energy. And I'm afraid it will bore both children and adults.

The main protagonist of the animated Dumbo was an elephant. In Tim Burton’s live-action version, the baby elephant is primarily an attraction in a clichéd story of several nondescript characters who are paradoxically bothered by the fact that someone uses animals as attractions. Otherwise, it is a completely routinely directed film without spark and (surprisingly) also without memorable visual ideas and (almost) without humour. The original Disney film is an hour shorter, much more enchanting and touching, and contains a scene with pink elephants (to which Burton only briefly refers), apparently written under the influence of absinthe. In other words, it would just be better if you put on Dumbo from 1941 for yourself and your children. 50%

Tim Burton made me very happy with this tale. The acting is very good (Colin Farrell and Eva Green are charming and Michael Keaton as the villain is solid). All the circus acts are impressive and once Dumbo wiggles his ears, the goosebumps and tears are on point. Towards the end the film is also unexpectedly quite suspenseful, nicely paced and a little scary for the kids in places. I enjoyed it. 80%.

The original cartoon is absolute perfection. It was originally a tiny film that wasn't even meant to be a feature film, and yet it has regularly moved generations and is simply wonderful. It’s understandable to young and old alike. Unfortunately, the live-action version is not like that at all. While Burton has surrounded himself with interesting people, the story is perfectly paced to fill almost twice the runtime of the original. But it doesn't work. The acted Dumbo film is neither touching, playful, nor fairy-tale enough, and there is not even a trace of the proverbial "Burton-touch." I’m sorry to say that even Eva Green or Michael Keaton in great costumes can't work miracles.

The original Dumbo is a pretty daunting piece among Disney movies, so I thought that teaming up with Tim Burton would make for a good remake. As far as the visuals go, it is a beautiful and well-crafted, although the look of some of the animals was a bit jarring to my eyes (especially the rabid monkey). Danny Elfman's score is typically magical and reminded me a lot of the earlier Burton films in places. The cast was mostly well chosen. The director reached for both old friends (Danny DeVito and Michael Keaton) and brand new faces (the child roles). However, sadly this is not another similarly amazing spectacle of Big Fish proportions, which Dumbo is close to through the circus setting. I did feel the old Burton in some places, particularly in the flying elephant scenes, the bubbles and the ending, yet the film felt a little flat. It may be a family film, but even those can delve deep and still appeal to both young and adult audiences.
