On the way back to his father, Pinocchio has a few adventures with the cricket that has become his guardian. Finally, father and son are reunited in the belly of a giant whale. The pan and scan transfer crops away far too much of the image to be truly pleasing, but the colors are quite good and the image is relatively sharp. The framing looks correct most of the time, with only an occasional instance where the edges of the frame appear compromised. The transfer is sharp and well defined.
Colors are rich and vivid.
Compression artifacts didn't pose any problems on the Letterboxed or pan and scan transfers. The Dolby Digital 5.1 channel soundtrack had a pleasing mix, with a good deal of atmosphere and some nice directional effects. Other soundtrack options include a matrixed Dolby Surround track. Subtitles are available in English and Spanish.
