Pinocchio Adults in 2022’s most breathtaking, extremely emotional, deeply immersive stop motion movies will certainly love it. Perhaps even more than the younger audience. Fans can take an unforgettable journey with their favorite dolls and experience this beloved story in a slightly different way.
The story is almost the same character, and has the same story beat as the original story of this version, but Pinocchio is energized in a much more eerie and more dangerous world. However, this story is not without the bright, engaging, and exciting moments that have transformed this new classic into one of the most atmospheric Tia Jerker films.
The main story of this fascinating animated film is set during World War II in Italy. During his adventures, Pinocchio not only needs to learn important lessons about love, loss, death and disobedience, but also find a way to avoid fascist Italian soldiers who want to use him as one of his child soldiers.
Pinocchio from Guillermo Del Toro explores darker and more painful themes than the original story, but does it in an arrogant style. At the heart of it is a wonderfully hopeful tale of individualism, the importance of unconditional love, and the imperfect but loving father-son relationships rarely portrayed in film-like, moving and profound ways.
