The one…the Only…The FABULOUS
When a slow stork finally delivers Mrs. Jumbo’s pint-sized baby elephant, he’s the talk of the circus. But with a pair of oversized ears, baby Dumbo is laughed at and ridiculed. With remarkable courage and the help of his loyal friend Timothy Mouse, Dumbo overcomes all odds in a triumphant celebration of love and determination.

This is a beautiful peace of work. Brilliant! Dumbo is the sweetest,
most trusting and adorable character.This film is an hour of perfection.
No family should be without this DVD.
the most beautiful stories ever told. What an awesome movie, a favourite in our house
i love this movie and i have made my step kids watch it a few times as
they teased on of their friends by calling her Dumbo as she has big
ears. Good movie
This movie is colourful, fun and suspenseful and funny. Any adult may
think it is only for kids but you are wrong. I laughed out loud with
with my kids watching this movie. It’s a really good movie. I
recommend the movie for any who has children.
Considering this movie is 50+ years old, it hasn’t really dated all that
much. It’s all about being different and how painful that can be and
how finding friends and finding someone to believe in you is that start
to believing in yourself and finding a place to fit in. There’s not a
lot of talk in this movie, but it speaks volumes. A moral tale that
kids (my two are 3.5) of all ages love and want to see again and again.
I watched this as a little boy and thought it was sad how he was picked
upon. My children love this movie and i think its a great story.
Apparently this was the first movie I saw at the cinema as a child in
London – and I remember loving it! (although apparently I did get sad
and cry at one point).
My kids love it too, and it definitely rates as one of the family classics that every child should see.
