Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio Is Morbid and Off-Putting
jacobin.com
Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio is handsome and well-crafted. But the film’s intertwining of traditional Catholicism, Fascism, and dysfunctional families with gooey sentimentality makes a stew of ingredients that don’t go well together.

The Jacobin is on one.

      It's good, another movie by Del Toro in which the enemy is the malignant cultural fascism of Europe

      It was a banger. My wife wouldn't have approved for how dark it was but I liked it and I think my oldest was a little shocked

      i liked it, even if it meandered. probably in the middle of the del toro movies. not the worst, but not even close to the best.
