Sun, 29 Jul 2007 01:58:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author carstairs38 - Dumbo truly is an amazing film. I always forget just how long it is. Or should I say short. At only 64 minutes, it is the shortest animated movie Disney has released. Yet it is so full of emotion and laughter it feels like a much longer...

Dumbo: Dumbo - a great teaching tool by Disney

Wed, 12 Feb 2003 09:03:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author susidee34 - This classic Disney movie has always been one of my favorites because even though it is fully animated it is directed at adults. After all, what child [God forbid] would ever understand the Pink Elephant theory in this movie? Beautifully animated,...

Dumbo: Disney's shortest and sweetest animated film.

Sun, 3 Jun 2001 20:12:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author stewdonelson - "Dumbo" may be short, but there's so much in it that you just love it. Walt Disney's fourth animated feature is also his sweetest film. The songs are fantasic; my favorite being "Casey Junior". The characters, including Dumbo and Timothy Q. Mouse, are...

Dumbo: Unsurpassed

Sun, 24 Dec 2000 00:05:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author FHfan - Ages before animated movies became overstuffed, overblown, overrated, and overbudgeted affairs, a trend which The Emperor's New Groove thankfully reversed, at least momentarily, movies like this one were being made all the time. They were quiet and...

Mon, 7 Aug 2000 13:19:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author millymac - I always feel silly when I watch a Disney cartoon, because they almost always make me cry. Even as I'm sitting there blubbering, I'm telling myself," It's a CARTOON, you ninny!" I mean, Bambi and Dumbo and Lady aren't even three-dimensional,...

Wed, 12 Jul 2000 18:08:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sweaver - Dumbo is Disney's strongest animated film dramatically. The themes of abandonment, loss of a parent, and loneliness ring true for every child. We know this feeling from the first time we cry and our parents do not immediately appear. These themes are...

Dumbo: Du Bomb!

Tue, 6 Jun 2000 00:47:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Boogus - I remember when DUMBO made its network premiere on NBC in the late 70s. It went up against the pilot of BATTLESTAR GALACTICA on ABC. I watched that in one room and my sister watched DUMBO in another after a little battle over who'd get the big TV. In...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author copacap - I have to say I was skeptical about letting my two year old watch this video. Remembering when I was a child, this was not one of my favorites.
