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.

Guillermo Del Toro specified that this wasnāt much of a kids movie. Whoever told you it was, is spreading a very wrong message. 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. Itās 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.

As an Italian, I loved this movie. How some of the VCs are Italian themselves, how fascism was portrayed (how horrible it was obv) and the little gag about Spazzatura's name actually meaning "trash" (I actually had a hard time not laughing during dramatic scenes because of it, it kinda made it more light hearted to me). It was visually gorgeous, original, almost perfect imo

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. Heās okay with it. Because he knows that he made great memories with them, and he knows that human/creature life is finite. I FR CRIED WHEN PINOCCHIO PUT SEBASTIAN IN A LIL MATCHBOX AND PUT IT IN HIS HEART I SWEAR I WAS UNCONTROLLABLY SOBBING ššš

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.

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.
