Disney's best animated achievment shines on Blu-Ray!
In a small swiss village there lived a woodcarving toymaker named Gheppeto who just made his latest masterpiece of a puppet named Pinocchio (Later voiced by Dick Jones) and a homeless talking Cricket named Jimminy (Voiced by Cliff Edwards)moves in. Gheppeto asks a blue fairy for a special wish to be granted for his puppet to be a real boy yet it comes true as Pinocchio comes to life yet he's not a real boy yet. His task in order to become a real flesh-and-blood boy is that he must be brave, truthful and unselfish and that the fairy assigns Jimminy as his conscience to help him along the straight and arrow path but the next day as Pinocchio skips school as he goes into many adventures into so much temptations such as trying to be a star no thanks to a sleazy puppeteer named Stromboli to Pleasure Island where naughty boys have nothing but fun and of course trying to find his missing father in the stomach of a whale named Monstro.Brilliantly animated classic that has stood the test of time for many generation's since it's release, it's Walt Disney's second animated movie after his stunning first animated movie "Snow White" but i think this one surpassed that one in terms of animation, art and storytelling. Here this movie offers dark edges that might be scary for young children just like the earlier Snow White but it's got something for everyone like the memorable "When you Wish Upon a Star" song to "High Diddly-Dee" with unforgettable characters that i believe made it Walt Disney's masterpiece and a childhood favorite of mine for many years.This Blu-Ray offers amazing picture and sound quality that is restored to wondeful quality and offers terrific extras like trivia track, deleted scenes, a 56 minute documentary, audio commentary, music video, disney song selection karakoe singalongs, two featurettes, still galleries, trailers and a bonus DVD disc of the movie.
