- TriviaThe longest stop-motion animated film.
- GoofsSharks do not have blowholes, so Pinocchio, Geppetto, and the cricket escaping through one after being swallowed by the giant shark would be impossible.
- Crazy creditsThe Cricket finally gets to sing his song (that he spent the whole movie getting cut off) over the end credits. His dancing knocks the fonts around.

Featured review
It's a proverbial mature children's film.
This film is NOT meant to have the light-hearted happy-go-lucky vibes of Disney's 1940 Pinocchio movie, but rather a modernised take praising the wonders of childhood, faith and friendship; up against the all-consuming tyranny of fascism (its take on Mussolini is hilarious), deceptive show-business tactics; and the double-edged sword of Time (and Life) itself.
Pinocchio is a conceptually HEAVY film that doesn't condescend on its younger audiences nor it's older ones: it respects all the age groups equally and without compromising the story and fairytale-qualities of the Pinocchio story at its core. It's like a hard-boiled folktale that knows when to be optimistic and when to be cautionary in equal measures; and that's the magic Guillermo Del Toro does so goddamn well in SPADES.
This is 2022's best animated feature film, and one of Netflix's best film offerings in years. And it was worth the wait on Del Toro's part too.
All in all, Pinocchio was WORTH IT; big time! And hella better than Disney's 2022 live-action turd too.
It's a 5/5 star experience.
