Who would I recommend this to?
The next wave of Pinocchio fans.

What is this about?
A wooden puppet comes to life and learns what it takes to be a real boy.

When would be a good time to watch this?
On a dark and stormy night. Total autumn vibes, not end of summer.

Where does it take place?
Italy.

Why did I decide to watch this?
Because it's Disney.

How did I like this?
They kept Honest John as a fox?!!? I assumed they were making everyone human! YES! But also, why are Pinocchio and Jiminy so bright?! The movie is kind of dim and toned down, but they're animated quite brightly. They stick out a bit too much.

Overall, it's a pretty straight-forward adaptation. Not much was added or taken away. It's very familiar and also brought something new. But where was the Blue Fairy during most of this?

BUT...Sharktopus. That is all!

Have you seen Pinocchio? What did you think?
If not, would you watch it?
