Talk:Dumbo (2019 film)/@comment-26423071-20190329195833

So the movie was...pretty much how I expected it.

As I said before, I think Burton is past his prime, and this movie reinforces that opinion. None of the surreal charm and unique creativity that gave us "Batman", "Beetleejuice" and "Ed Wood" is on display here.

To put it in short: "Alice in Wonderland", "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", this movie. All three are Burton remakes of classic family films. Some like them, some don't.

I'm one of the people who doesn't like it.

But, if you like it, that's OK. to each his/her own. If you are still a fan of Tim Burton, and you think he still got it, you are within your right to think so.

I'm just baffled as to why they chose him to direct this movie. When I think "Dumbo", the last thing that comes to mind is Tim Burton.

In short: I didn't like it, but I respect those that did.

As a positive, I can say that has excellent cast, who are clearly giving their all in this movie.
