I am Jack's liver...a mind-blowing look at a consumer-led society and mental health
This is a horror movie in the sense that it feels like a modern-day psycho. David Fincher's savage film is visionary and disturbing. It reveals angry and diffidently witty ideas about contemporary manhood. It builds a huge, phantasmagorical structure around the search for lost masculine authority, and attempts to psycho-analyse an entire society in the process. Fabulous twist at the end. An excellent adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk's book.

A poor adaptation
I'm afraid to say that this version of Dumbo is probably the worst Disney live adaptation to date.

Other than having some mostly decent special effects and the nods to the original (Timothy Mouse, the songs and the pink elephants), I really can't find anything nice to say about this film. It has a great cast, who are sadly underused and struggle with the poor story and shoddy script. I hated Michael Keaton's villain Vandevere, he wasnt particularly villainous and I really don't know what was going on with Keaton's acting, he was really hamming it up to the point of being terrible. The kids were irritating too and such a poor substitute for Timothy Mouse. The entire film was just dull, boring, cheesy and cringeworthy, and I've never seen a Disney film that lacked heart as much as this one does. How can a film about the circus be so dull?! You also can't tell this is a Tim Burton film, and that is such a shame. Maybe if this had been a little creepy or dark, it might have turned out a lot better.
