"With its colorful circus setting and quirky characters, this short Disney movie is easy to like, but it's Dumbo himself who steals your heart."
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Betty Jo Tucker
3.5/5
"It's very adult in nature, its themes of alienation being evergreen, just a bit wrongheaded in their delivery"
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
3.5/4
"In its scant 64-minute running time, the big top melodrama of Dumbo reduces me to a blubbering, mucus-drizzling wreck at least once with every viewing."
Slant Magazine
Eric Henderson
8/10
"Some folks consider it the best thing Disney ever did, a sweet story filled with rollicking gags, tuneful music, yet sadness and heartache, too."

John J. Puccio
5/5
"It just tells a great story and has beautiful moments of powerful emotion that can bring a tear to the eye even 65 years after it was made."

"Viewed in isolation,
Dumbo
feels like a practice feature film from animators whose only previous experience was short subjects."
Decent Films Guide
Steven D. Greydanus

"One of the most emotionally potent of all animated movies; I might be inclined to say, of all movies, period."
