In this remake, it's Gepetto who can't be revived back on land. After Gepetto returns home with the marionette, The Blue Fairy revives Pinocchio as a real boy and makes those kids taken by the Coachmaster and turned into donkeys human again. In the 1940 classic, Gepetto and Pinocchio manage to escape from Monstro, only for the wooden boy to die when they wash up on shore. That feels more like corner cutting than anything else, but it's the final few minutes which see this reimaging fall straight off a cliff. At the same time, the Blue Fairy only appears right at the movie's start when she brings Gepetto's latest creation to life. The critical response to Pinocchio has not been kind, and much of that appears to boil down to some bizarre changes made to the story during its transition from animation to live-action.įor example, Honest John never returns to leave Pinocchio in the clutches of the evil Coachmaster.
