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.

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.

A misguided redo.

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.

I liked it. I don't understand what all the negative reviews are about but I can agree on this: Yes, Pinocchio (2022) may have misunderstood the point of the original animated film by having Pinocchio not turn into a real boy at the end. I'll admit, that does undermine the core message of the original. However, other than that, what else is there to enjoy? The CGI and visuals are pretty impressive and I would say Tom Hanks made a compelling Geppetto. I personally felt the despair he felt after losing his son. That scene at the beginning of the movie really made up for the weak message at the end. I also greatly enjoyed Alan Silvestri's score in this too. So, overall, is it great? No. I would say stick to the original. But, in a sense, I personally think that there is enough in this to make it a somewhat enjoyable time. Rating: 6/10

This movie is bad the story is different and he didn’t turn into a real boy at the end of the scene.

Pinocchio never turns into a Real Boy in this movie, just like how this movie will never be Real, and never taken seriously.

I liked the CGI and atmosphere and settings of the movie it was beautiful. The cgi of Pinocchio’s movements were very impressive. However I think it would have been better if they had kept some of the original soundtrack from the animated film. Also, the part with the ballerina girl and her doll was so random and I think they should not have added that.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom, e poucas cenas interessantes.
