Summary: A "must see", as it captures the heart & imagination of all.
Review: Out of all the movies we have at our disposal today, not one can match the exhilarance and emotions that come from this movie of Walt Disney. Other Walt Disney films have the same characteristics, in their own form, of course. I will definitely make sure it is in the "video library" of each of my grandchildren.

Summary: Disney¿s Best
Review: I don't care what the average moviegoer or the AFI says, Disney's best movie isn't The Lion King or Snow White, it's this timeless gem. It's great that it's coming out on DVD, which I'm getting even though I don't have a DVD player (yet).

Summary: Disney's Masterpiece
Review: Walt Disney said that he considered "Snow White" to be his masterpiece. I hate to disagree with the master, but I think "Pinocchio" should have that honor. Carlos Collodi's story of the puppet that becomes a boy has =never= been translated to film better. Everyone knows the story - a lonely puppeteer named Gepetto make a wish to have a son. The Blue Fairy hears his wish, and decides to grant it in an unusual fashion - she brings his most recent creation to life, and gives the -puppet- a chance to prove himself in order to become a boy. Pinocchio has many misadventures while learning life's lessons, but finally appears to give his "life" when saving his father from the monster whale, Monstro. The Blue Fairy returns and says that the ultimate sacrifice has earned him the ultimate prize - he becomes a live boy! Honored by the Academy Awards for Best Song ("Wish Upon A Star") and Best Score, this movie deserves every award in the book. There has never been more object lessons taught so easily. Don't lie. Be brave. Stay on the path to your goal. And not preachy, either. And the THX restoration of the video and sound makes this a real viewing experience - just as clear and clean as it might have been in the theaters in 1940. The only disappointment I had is with the "extra" material on the DVD. Almost no extra material at all. It just includes the original theatrical trailer, and a French language track. Come on, Disney, give us more about Pinocchio! After seeing what was possible with the recent release of the "platinum" edition of "Snow White", I can only hope that they will eventually turn their energies towards this film as well. Highly recommended for families, espicially families with young children. The "Gold Edition" of the DVD is now officially on moratorium - maybe after that we'll see the version we want!

Summary: 5 Star Movie -- 3 Star DVD
Review: A timeless classic which can be apreciated over and over again by people of all ages. "Pinocchio", Disney's second full-length animated feature, is one of the best ever. "Pinocchio" is the tale of a wooden puppet who comes to life only to be tempted by good and evil. The moral dilemnas which tempt young Pinocchio seem relevant even by today's standards. The characters -- Jiminy Cricket, Geppetto, the evil Honest John and of course, Pinocchio -- are amongst Disney's most memorable. The title song "When You Wish Upon a Star" is one of the all-time classics. Although "Pinocchio" is geared toward a younger audience, some children may be frightened by Monstro the Whale and/or the the terrifying Pleasure Island Sequence. The only downside to "Pinocchio" is the DVD presentation itself. While the film transfer is great -- crisp, clear, vibrant colors -- my main gripe is the lack of extras. Apparently, Disney will be loading up the extras for its upcoming "Snow White" release. I just wish they'd do the same for not only "Pinocchio", but all of their animated classics. For the high price that Disney asks, you'd think we'd get a little more. However, this is just a minor gripe and overall, I'm pleased to own this animated classic. Highly recommended to anyone and everyone!

Summary: Essentially essential. Period.
Review: Disney's charming animated film called Pinnochio is a beautifully animated and entertainingly told piece of movie history. This is definitely a classic, in all scopes of the imagination.
