I don't understand the bad reviews of this movie. It's a great movie! Tim Burton directed. Danny Devito. Michael Keaton. I know it kind of leans on its star-studded cast, but I honestly think this is one of the best disney live-action remakes thus far. It doesn't rely too heavily on the original movie, like the remake of Lion King did. Still really upset about that to be honest. Dumbo (2019) pays homage to the original movie in the best ways, while also creating a different story. What's not to love about that?
