Hi Movie Nerd fans. A few days ago it was Disney Plus day and over the weekend I watched the newest live action Disney remake that everybody is talking about .
This is my review of the live action Pinocchio.
Pinocchio is based of a classic 1940 version of the Pinocchio story. It is about Gepetto played by the one and only Tom Hanks. He made a little wooden boy named Pinocchio amd became his father.
This live action version is really not that good even with Tom Hanks as the star. Lets talk about the bad stuff first. I can't take Tom Hanks too seriously after his amazing performance in Elvis .
The acting is too silly and without any spoilers I hated the ending. Aside from the bad things in the movie, there are also good things that I do like. Just like the TV movie Gepptto, updating the Pinocchio story , this movie set looks amazing and directed by Robert Zemeckis one of my favorite movie directors of all time. He did a great job trying to remake the movie but the acting was not believable.
I really loved the new original songs that will never leave my head any time soon. I give it a 4 out of 10 stars, my lowest rating ever for a Disney movie. If you want to see a good Pinocchio movie, I recommend the TV movie version of Gepetto staring Drew Carey and Julia Louis Dreyfus from Seinfeld.
