Two and a half stars, Disney's regular assembly line work just amplifies the animation version, which limits the imagination, and the originality is actually not as good as Tim Burton's "Dumbo".

After watching the live-action versions of Disney fairy tale movies, I don’t hate these films that have been refurbished with old animation technology. In fact, if you change the director, the finished film will definitely be branded with Disney fairy tales. Even if you invite a big director to come, you can’t escape the industrial assembly line. The fate of the overseer, but for those who like these big directors, there is at least a little fun in finding the shadow of the director's style. The big directors made a fortune, and hopefully they can do something serious next. Disney’s output values are very powerful, and its aesthetic style is also very recognizable. Now every time I watch its movies, I feel like visiting Disneyland.
