Watch Operation Dumbo Drop For Free

A Surprisingly Unforgettable Movie!

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Operation Dumbo Drop stars Ray Liotta, Danny Glover and Denis Leary, it is set during the Vietnam war and is a Disney family comedy-drama rather implausibly based on a true event.Liotta is a US soldier who lands in a remote Vietnamese village to replace Glover and his actions leads to their sole working elephant to be killed. In order to safeguard the strategic interest of the US military, Glover and Liotta decide to locate another elephant as a replacement and bring it to the villagers as a gift.Withe the help of Leary they find an old elephant who is accompanied by a young boy but the elephant does not like flying in planes and they have to use various means to take the elephant back to the villagers.The story has enough humour and warmth to keep the kids entertained, they will enjoy the elephant going on a rampage inside a plane or in the marketplace. It is rather ludicrous despite being based on true events but Liotta and Glover look like they are having fun in a Disney movie.

This movie had some typically-good Disney aspects to it but also some typically- bad Disney agendas in here that just about made me puke.With modern-day Disney films - or at least the ones in the 1980s and 1990s - you can expect the following "good" and "bad:" This movie proves to be no exception.GOOD - Slick-looking photography with beautiful Vitenamese scenery; low profanity; an interesting story that moves well.BAD - Political-correctness run amok......an annoying kid who knows more than the adults; an ending that's always drawn out too long; a reverence for Eastern religions or anything that is not Christianity; a black and a white lead character in which the black is always the better of the two, etc. etc.A SURPRISE - Danny Glover and Ray Liotta losing their tempers but not swearing a blue streak. Wow, now that's different!

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

Everything on Earth is accelerated by gravity at the same rate (about 10 meters per second per second), regardless of its mass, so heavy things fall as quickly as light things provided there is no air-resistance. As the elephant likely had a greater surface area, and thus more air resistance, a human (especially one consciously attempting to minimize air resistance) might have been able to catch it. Now as to the size of a parachute necessary for an elephant, I'll leave that as an exercise to you :)
