A slower-paced Disney adventure, though 'Pinocchio' is arguably the more heartwarming tale of the studio's first two animated films.
I enjoy the plot here, it's filled with feeling and teaches a positive lesson or two. Dick Jones voices the title character, to good effect. Charles Judels gives a fair performance as Stromboli, but my pick of the lot is Cliff Edwards who is excellent as Jiminy Cricket.
The animation is still pretty amazing given the time period, the water scenes involving Monstro (Thurl Ravenscroft) still look tremendous. Some of the pacing is a little off, things drag slightly before the final act. I do appreciate how dark this is at times, though.
Still entertaining enough, it's one that is more than worth your time.
