Dale R A group of American soldiers need to get an elephant to a remote town during the Vietnam War. This movie has heart. It starts a little slow, but picks up after they find the elephant as character development and plot start moving forward. There were five soldiers in the main group. The ones played by Danny Clover and Denis Leary were well acted and I enjoyed. Doug E. Doug got in a few good lines, but he wasn’t given much to do. Corin Nemec was just there. He had few lines and I wondered why they even put his character into the movie. Maybe he had some scenes that were cut for time, but the movie is only about an hour and a half. Finally Ray Liotta’s character was the lead character and I didn’t connect with him at all. I did enjoy the relationship that the soldiers developed with the kid that was the elephant’s trainer. That is the real heart of this movie. The special effects had a lot of very noticeable green screens that didn't hold up, but I think this movie is worth a watch.

Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/03/23 Full Review Charlie H It is a dumb movie, but still a good one. Worth a watch. Don't get lost into it... just appreciate it as nonsense. And it managed to get a great cast... makes me think a documentary would be even better. Hahaha Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/28/23 Full Review Audience Member A bland family comedy that has some okay acting and amusing moments but is a bit boring, has a peculiar backdrop that doesn't really strike me as a good introduction to talking to your children about the Vietnam War, boasts groan-worthy dialogue and the attempts to deal with themes of war and animal welfare clash with the goofy antics that involve shoving a hand up an elephant's ass, among other things. At least it's well-shot. But I wouldn't recommend this as "Baby's First "Apocalypse Now"".

Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Bem bonitinho, pensei ter relação com o Dumbo, mas foi só um título oportunista, aquela mesma linha Disney, americanos heróis e fofinhos (ou não)que salvam o mundo de todo vilania existente… Mas sequestram um elefantinho de seu ‘habitat', para colocar no lugar de um que eles "ajudaram" a matar… O menininho rouba as cenas, e a lenda em torno do elefante é bem bonitinha… E no final, a informação de ser baseada em uma história real, do major Jim Morri para me deixar ainda mais derretida...
