Watching this film was an interesting experience. Although I applaud Del toro for hinting at sources from the books. I love how the film follows Pinocchio's innocence showing a side that could not only end the conflict but could help us grow and help each other strive.
This was phenomenal. Visually so captivating and such finely detailed stop motion, story was reimagined in a dark way brightened by Pinocchio’s naivety and misunderstanding of the world. Would rewatch, would recommend, and will show this to future kids even.

Was a little weird tbh, the plots different then what i thought it would be.
drove 45 mins to see this movie the day it came out -originally because of Finn-. i think Finn is great in voice acting. Movie for any ages that will make you laugh and cry. This movie is more than art it’s a masterpiece and has so many important messages.

stupid and didn’t make sense compared to the original story 3/10
absolutely deserved movie of the year. its such a refreshing take on a tale that lends itself to being really boring at times. not to mention i love a good stop motion movie. my favorite part of this movie is the character designs, especially the blue fairy. seriously watch this!

In a surpriseing new light Mr. del Toro shares with us a new, yet unconventional perspective and marvelously entertaining story of Pinocchio. A star studded list of actors[voices] lluminatung Walt's characters. I marveled watching the use of stop animation, it brought to me a sense of nostalgia.
WAY BETTER THAN DISNEYS LIVE ACTION VERSION
Metacritic
Though it may not be as iconic as the 1940s version, Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio is still astounding. Every character is fleshed out and filled with eccentricities lacking in prior versions. Themes of empathy, fascism, dealing with death, and learning to live again run deep within this masterpiece. And for all the complexities, the film is just plain enjoyable.
To be fair, del Toro’s “Pinocchio” does, indeed, get a lot of things right. It’s got a nice sense of humor, for example. It is ambitious. It has heart. Where it falters, however, is in its near-total absence of charm.
It’s an artful, moving and often beautiful film, but be careful about showing it to young children; nightmares could ensue. (It haunted me, and I’m quite grown.)
