Review about the Script and Story
What’s Good: Tom Hanks is unrecognisable and so good that he tick marks another ‘oh he can do this too’ role. Of course, the visuals.

Loo Break: Pause and take at any point.

Pinocchio Movie Review: Star Performance.
Tom Hanks can make even the most lazily written character look good, and Geppetto is an exciting one. A man who has spent years alone but still has hope left that one day he will have someone to call his family. There is a lot to explore in him and Hanks as an actor does that. The makers though use him to take the plot ahead.
The only two people who enjoy the maximum spotlight and make it worth are Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Jiminy), Benjamin Evan Ainsworth (Pinocchio). The humour is always on point and crisp, which makes this film watchable.
Pinocchio Movie Review: The Last Word.
Pinocchio is a misfire and an unexpected one. I hope the studio comes back on track and creates what they are known for. Fingers crossed.
