Critics Consensus

Visually dazzling but soulless, the largely inert Pinocchio reaffirms that you should always let your conscience be your guide… away from unnecessary remakes.

Audience Says

Just watch Disney's original Pinocchio instead.

Just as Pinocchio wasn’t a real boy to start, this wasn’t a real movie – and there’s almost no chance it learnt enough lessons to become one with a soul.

The pacing is hopelessly unwieldly, with unnecessary deviations from the original film, added characters who don’t really have purpose and do not propel the plot, and new songs that are not up to Disney standards.

Robert Zemeckis’ live-action film has gorgeous, seamless animation and revels in its seductive timelessness.

Pinocchio boasts a more thematically impactful ending than the original but fails to deliver a new version of the famous childhood tale with the same magic and allure of the past.

Just watch the original. The remake just added pointless scenes and characters that add nothing to the plot or moral of the story. BORING. Disney really has lost their spark and imagination and it's so sad.

This is the most forgettable and mid movie. It is completely passionless and emotionless. Also, like nobody asked for a Pinocchio live action remake. This movie kind of just felt like Disney had no ideas and just made it as filler without trying at all. Pinocchio also literally defies physics and becomes a superhero. 5.5/10

Are you serious that you have to change at least one character again (Blue Fairy)?
