Del Toro specifically said if parents are wanting their kids to watch, that they better have a talk before it. This is an amazing tell of the classic tale of Pinocchio and I love it so much. I hope it gets an Oscar. It’s a bit dark, but it really made me want to reflect on my life and become better. Which is saying a lot. Not many movies do that for me.

    @@hollyro4665 I don't think OP is necessarily saying it in that way. You can look at the entire movie through a grain of salt but with an open an non-linear perspective towards it, you can see how impactful it can be as a movie with how in-depth it's meaning is. It shows how mindless, unfair & unknowing war can be surrounding the outside of it all. The grief, anguish in Gapetto's life and he couldn't bare to move past it all because of how swiftly Carlo was taken away from him. The mourning, praying to an unknown god that is clearly not helping him, whereas his rage blinds him in the moment impulsively embarking on a spiritual journey of self-discovery at a very OLD physical age. Guilliermo Del Toro shows a story of life, experience and how quickly it can be taken away as it can be given. We reap what we sow and every message in this movie is poetic, insightful, kindred and meaningful. Pinnochio singing poop to war was quite light-hearted and added to the field of how shitty war can be.

    Lying, in this version of Pinocchio, is shown to be good to help your loved ones, but not good just to get attention (like he was before he got hit by a truck). It's part of the movie's main theme of disobedience. Blindly following the rules because they're rules is how we get fascism. Being true to yourself and those you care about is far more important. In this way, it wasn't Pinocchio who needed to change into a "real boy" but, rather, Geppeto who needed to change into a real father.

    Yes, I agree so much with the last part. Like, For Gepetto was blessed with an obedient boy that he completely has no idea what to do with the complete opposite. He never had to discipline Carlo before. But with this woodling, oh, how the trouble starts. The movie not just teaches Pinocchio the harsh realities of life but also teaches Gepetto that sometimes, he needs to adjust to change. He never got that chance because he clung too much to the loss of his son. Yeah, the loss of a loved one, especially a child, is hard, especially for the parent, but Gepetto never made an effort after that. He never changed, even though the world did. Carlo wouldn't want his father to be drowning in sorrow. He would rather see him happy again, doing the things he loved. Pinocchio was a true blessing to Gepetto. The boy taught him how to adapt to change, how to make an effort, and how to move on slowly and be a better father. Sure, it was hard, especially when Pinocchio's personality was far different than Carlo's, but he was still able to accomplish changing himself and Gepetto for the better.

    You think this is messed up, you should read the unabridged translation. In the first few chapters Pinnochio has Geppeto arrested for child abuse, burns off his feet, and kills the cricket with a hammer. In the original serialization, he was hung for his innumerable faults, and is killed. The publisher forced Collodi to continue writing, however, and add 21 more chapters because of how popular the book was.

    In my opinion, the ending is really touching. It links back to the fact that when Geppetto lost Carlo, he made horrible choices to cope with his grief, but when Pinocchio, finally experienced in the horrors life and death had to offer him, he accepts it. He’s okay with it. Because he knows that he made great memories with them, and he knows that human/creature life is finite.

    I remember a Pinocchio film from when I was younger that was much "lower quality" that really impacted me as a kid. It was one of those "rip-off" films that piggybacked on the success of the original Disney film and was shown on a Sunday morning. The thing that made it really memorable to me was one scene in particular. In that film, Pinocchio was designed as having a "detailed" face that could pass as that of any human boy but a body that was very obviously wooden and inhuman. At some point after running away from the puppet show, he disguised himself by wearing concealing clothing. In disguise, he befriended a young girl from a rich family and Pinocchio was taken in as a servant/playmate/potential bodyguard. Over time, the two grow closer and began to love each other, but Pinocchio realizes that he can't give her a future that would make her truly happy. At that point in the film, he believed he brought misfortune to those around him and would never be a "real boy". So when alone, he speaks to her and informs her that he is leaving and wishes her the best. The heiress does not approve of this and tries to talk Pinocchio out of leaving, telling him she loves and can't accept that would simply abandon her. She states she would rather abandon her high society lifestyle than be without him. In order to break her conviction, Pinocchio shocks her by taking off his clothes, revealing his stick limbs. Pinocchio points out how during his time with her, she has visibly grown while Pinocchio remains the same. He cannot grow old with her and marry. He cannot feel hot or cold. And as he starts to walk away from the crying girl, he remarks that he previously thought he could not feel pain, but the pain in his chest is very much real... he only wishes he could cry. While the film didn't end there, that was the moment that made speculate the harder subjects of life and how sometimes we miss the darker implications because we are so engrossed in the "fairy tale". It was the first time I ever truly realized what was meant by the words "beautiful tragedy". To this day I can't remember how the story ended, but the lesson it taught me stuck with me over 20 years later. I hope, even now, that Pinocchio found his happy ending.

    I think the reason Gepetto looks as old as he does in the scenes with Carlo is because Sebastian didn't know Gepetto in any other way, so while he pictured the old man's story he just placed him 15-20 years before he saw him for the first time just as he was nowadays. Gepetto would've been like... probably 50 or 60 when Pinocchio was born, so he would've been like 35 by the time Carlo was 10. That's the in-universe explanation. The movie-making explanation is that making a younger Gepetto for just a few scenes wasn't worth the money.

Also, in the documentary in Netflix they mentioned that smoother-faced puppets are way more difficult to animate. It isn't as simple as painting them differently; they have to be modeled, constructed (they have mechanical mechanisms like a clock inside their faces to change their eyes position and expressions), painted, assembled and then animated. In general, because a younger Gepetto wasn't a vital part of the story (unlike Carlo, which was a key character), that process wasn't worth it.

    about the 'they make lying seem good' part: del toro said that he never liked how the previous pinocchio versions always drove home that you have to be obedient and children always have to be good and listen to what theyre told. so he wanted to rewrite it in a way that doesnt support blind obedience but rather makes pinnochio learn when following rules is good and when rules are actually harmful and should be broken. he wanted the lesson to be that one should always consider the situation and act with thought rather than blindly obey rules and random virtues.

    I think Guillermo likes approaching children's horror by having the monsters and horror often be more moral ones. While there was terrifying stuff like the whale and the danger, the most disturbing parts of the movie could very easily be how his innocence were always under threat of being corrupted by money and power by the circus and government that wanted to exploit him. Reminds me a lot of Pan's Labyrinth in that way.

    I was happy to see a PG movie that actually earned that rating and didn't shy away on it's darkness that would have led the film to easily be PG-13. For how people today are so easily offended by the most slightly mature things, I never imagined another movie today similar to Return to Oz or The Land Before Time, movies that were dark but were beautifully deep. There's death, realistic horror in life and so many existential questions and morals that probably won't go over every kid watching it. And especially being a Netflix film, they could've made it like the other 2022 Pinocchio movies that were bland and inoffensive as possible. But they didn't and chose to take chances, and even changed things from the book that are arguably BETTER. We'll see where Mr. Del Toro goes for his next movie, but it's gonna be hard to top this one.

    audiences are such hypocrites. if the Del Toro one were released by Disney, it would be lambasted for making too many changes from the 1941 one. but because it is non-disney and is a darker and edgier version people praise it.

    The only thing that I found really weird is that Geppetto wasn't young in the beginning of the movie when Carlo was still with him. Otherwise, this movie was amazing. Don't think it was ever advertised as a kid's movie. And if parents didn't know to check it out before letting their kids watch it, that's on the parents, not on the movie.

    The story explanation would be that Geppetto was in his 50s in the flashback with Carlo, and about 70 for the rest of the movie. The more likely explanation is that they couldn’t afford another puppet for such a minor difference. Stop motion puppets are ridiculously expensive, everything has to be custom made, and there often have to be several copies of each puppet.

In stark contrast to how Volpe treated him. Also, it will never not be hilarious to me that Cate Blanchett voices him. It's literally just Galadriel making monkey noises.

I mean literally, NONE of their stories during the renaissance were original stories. and many are SO WAY OFF the original, at best you can just say the only that the same basic foundations. But even then, we freaking loved them. the difference between then and now? The writing. The execution to be more specific. The ideas themselves aren't bad. but the motive for the changes, on top of the delivery, fell really flat. And i doesn't help that they lash out at the PAYING customers.

    Fun Fact about the character design for Pinocchio: Gris Grimly was also involved alongside del Toro (and explains why Pinocchio has a slightly spooky character design with small beady eyes and a wide grinning mouth)! For anyone who doesn't know who Gris Grimly is, he's an illustrator that had a sketchy Tim Burton-y like drawing style that has illustrated for many classic books over the decades (especially the classic horror kinds, like Edgar Allen Poe and Frankenstein) and has done some album covers for Creature Feature (a band that I highly recommend people check out the next time October/Spooky Season come around)! ^^

    The thing I love the most about this version of Pinocchio is not just that this is VERY different from a Disney rehash of the tale, but the moment you first see Pinocchio alive is extremely unsettling thanks to how he moves. He moves and uses his limbs in a very inhuman manner, and you have to watch him, in real time, learn how to move/walk/use his limbs like a real boy WHILE he learns how to truly be a real boy as a whole. I love it!!
