My favourite version of the story


I've now seen FOUR versions of Pinocchio in the movies, the two Disney versions, namely the original and the live-action remake, the live-action version from Italy where Pinocchio hangs by a rope at some point, and now this version by Guillermo Del Toro, and to be honest, I found Del Toro's version the most entertaining in every way:

* The story was imaginative and let Geppeto spend time with both his sons
* I love the voice cast, easily the best I've heard in ages in an animated movie
* The characters are interesting, I particularly like the Cricket
* The creature designs are interesting and slightly creepy, typical Del Toro work
* The songs are quite catchy, the first musical I've liked in ages
