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.
Mfer has this reviewer not watched his other fucking films!? Like all his most acclaimed ones such as Pan's Labyrinth, The Shape of Water, The Devil's Backbone are all about the crossing between fantasy/freedom/love and the hell that is fascism (with Pan being set during the fucking Franco regime). Like holy shit I knew Jacobin was demsoc at best but are they just handing out stuff for lib interns to right now before they head off to work for a gov thinktank?
