Dumbo (2019)
Stop killing classics ! Tim, where's your magic ?!
First of all the main hero is fully CGI. You can't love a fully CGI character. Whatever the amount of work behind it, it will never move "organically". The elephant is cute we get after the first seconds, but that's it. Dumbo doesn't get more than the cute flying elephant.
Then the real-persons acting. Danny was great, but for the rest... These actors just don't work together.
I was expecting so much from this movie. Dumbo is a classic piece from my childhood, like many people out there. The trippy scene from the animation movie with the soaps, it also exists in this one, but my god... my heart still hurts.
1 star for Danny
2 stars because I still believe in Tim's mojo
I hope I will quickly forget this movie.
Beneath Us (2019)
Hey, not bad !
Leave aside the overuse of "Thrilling Sound effects" it's a good Indie movie. The cinematography is great, the tension is present all over the movie - you really wanna kill that woman- and the message is good. It's good to see something new is the thriller scene, which became sadly empty the last couple of years in my opinion. It won't mark me, but it's just a bit of fresh air.
