On A Look On the Plus Side, we pull a different movie or TV show from Disney+ each week, tell you the history and details, give our review, and tell you if it’s worth your time.

Disney's 1940 Classic Through Modern Eyes

Join us as we dive deep into Disney's second animated feature film, the timeless classic "Pinocchio" (1940). In this review, we explore the groundbreaking animation techniques that were revolutionary for their time, the surprisingly dark themes that continue to resonate with audiences today, and the cultural impact this wooden puppet has had over eight decades.

We'll analyze the film's stunning visual accomplishments, standout musical numbers, including the Academy Award-winning "When You Wish Upon a Star," and how the morality tale at its core remains relevant in our modern world. Whether you're revisiting this masterpiece or discovering it for the first time, this review will give you a new appreciation for one of Disney's most beloved creations.

From Pleasure Island's cautionary tale to the terrifying Monstro sequence, discover why Pinocchio's journey from puppet to real boy continues to captivate generation after generation. Like, subscribe, and share your favorite Pinocchio memories in the comments below!
