SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

cmtrn1 Yes, I'm a bit behind in my movie watching. I lived in the Middle East for years and couldn't get movies. This is just a cute movie that can be watched with the entire family. The sad part (for me and children) is when the one elephant is shot and dies. I found this to be an entertaining movie, not engulfing or engrossing. It's rated PG for war violence, yet any child can see that on TV, the news or in their own school (we've become a pitiful country). It was nice to see Danny and Ray in something besides a shoot-em-up or getting your brains eaten by Hannibal. If you just want a sit back and relax movie for the family, this is one of them. The fact that it's based on actual events is a bonus!

timcstubbs Leave it to Disney to try to make light of the Vietnam War. There was nothing even remotely funny or entertaining about anything that happened in Vietnam just as there is nothing of the sort going on right now in the Middle East. What will their next movie be about....a camel being dropped into Iraq surrounded by IED's? America needs to be more responsible about its portrayal of war in films. WAR IS HORRIBLE! There is just no excuse for trying to make it anything otherwise. I found this movie to be quietly pro-war. That is no surprise coming from the American Disney Corporation. America, and Americans, must strive to end all war right now and to stand up against any form of the arts that glorifies war or, in this case, makes light of it.I was mildly entertained by the movie but the above are my thoughts upon seeing it.

MovieAddict2016 Great actors -- Danny Glover, Ray Liotta, Denis Leary (hilarious in "The Ref"!) -- unite in a not-so-great, "truth"-inspired film about an elephant drop. Need I say more? Typical Disney dreck that occupied their resume in the 90s. Came out a year after "The Lion King." Animation is just their thing. (Although sometimes Disney proves that wrong.)2/5 stars.John Ulmer

coverme6 The Vietnam War makes a really unorthodox setting for a Disney movie, but this movie goes along quite well, thanks to its performances. Danny Glover and Ray Liotta star as the leaders of a rag-tag American platoon in charge of guarding an elephant and its young Vietnamese trainer on a trip to one part of the divided country to another.Because of its family-friendly base, OPERATION DUMBO DROP plays itsafe with it's war violence. But who says you need bloody, graphic action in order to make a good war-oriented film? As long as theperformances are stellar, the film wins. Case in point is OPERATION DUMBO DROP.
