Review of Dumbo (1941) by Kj P — 23 Mar 2013

For all of the buildup and story that this film brings to the table, it's too short and feels a tad rushed to get to the point by the end, while disregarding main plot points that were developed during the first half of the picture.

Sure, it's meant to be kids entertainment, and in that respect, it definitely pays it's dues, but overall, it made itself out to be more than what it actually is. This film has a wonderfully scripted storyline, but was poorly executed by a short running time.

I would have liked to see everything unfold rather than have such a quick and happy ending handed to me. "Dumbo" should have been better than what it is!
