General Note
An exciting comedy adventure of enormous proportions, Operation Dumbo Drop was cheered by critics and audiences across America! A savvy veteran army captain (Danny Glover) is teamed with a by-the-book West Point officer (Ray Liotta) to lead the 'weightiest' military maneuver ever. Their job: To secretly transport a full-grown elephant across 200 miles of rugged terrain - fording rivers, scaling mountains and crossing canyons - to reach a remote jungle village! You'll discover laughter around every hilarious corner as these hardy Green Berets prove that with a little luck...and tons of hard work...no mission is impossible.
