    Showed the themes of grief, war, and defying expectations.
    Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio movie is a stop-motion masterpiece is a visually stunning and darkly reimagined Pinocchio story. Del Toro crafts a world both whimsical and haunting, breathing new life into the classic tale. Gregory Mann is a charming Pinocchio, and Ewan McGregor provides delightful narration. The film tackles mature themes of grief, war, and defying expectations. While some darkness might surprise younger viewers, it adds depth and emotional resonance. The animation is breathtaking, with meticulously crafted puppets that feel tangible. Pinocchio is a dark gem, offering a fresh perspective on a beloved character. It's a must-see for fans of animation, dark fantasy, and stories that go beyond the ordinary.

    A movie that becomes more meaningful as you get older.
    In my opinion, it is a very impressive film with the messages it has like the reality of life and the cruelty of war.

    In addition, the film also touches on historical events, which makes the film really interesting.

    The Pinocchio tale turns into a whole diffrent and interesting movie with Gulliermo del Toro's stop motion technique. Also the music in the film also impressed me greatly.

    But i have to say that this film may not be suitable for all the childs. I think an adult would love the film more than a child. The messages it contains, emotional and historical scenes would impress an adult more than a child. I think that as the person who watches the movie gets older, they will realize that it is a much more meaningful movie.

    A good movie worth 2 hours of your time, I highly recommend it.
