Dumbo Review
Master of the macabre Tim Burton takes on the live action adaptation of Walt Disney’s 1941 much loved classic ‘Dumbo’; the heart felt story about a Baby Elephant with extraordinarily large ears that learns to fly.
Featuring the addition of new characters and stacking up a cast that includes a big top’s worth of talent including Danny DeVito, Michael Keaton, Colin Farrell and Eva Green, the film has a PG certificate and opens in cinemas on Friday the 29th March.
