Original Title:
Operation Dumbo Drop
American GIs in Nam attempt to transport reluctant pachyderm across jungle terrain in order to placate residents of a strategically important village. Its a watershed in Americas relentlessly tedious coming to terms with Vietnam that Disney can use one of the worlds grimmest military forays as a background for this tragically
ill-judged comedy, directed by the appropriately monikered Simon Wincer
As bad as cinema gets.
