Editorial Reviews

Tricked by a mean fox and dim-witted cat, Pinocchio loses the money he planned to use to buy Pappa Gepetto a Christmas present (which he obtained by selling the arithmetic book Gepetto bought him). This begins a series of very amusing adventures.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another stop-motion holiday treat from Rankin/Bass, December 5, 2001

This review is from: Pinocchio's Christmas [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Filmed in Rankin/Bass's uncomparable stop-motion animation technique, "Animagic", this lesser-known special ranks right up there with "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town". Tricked by a mean fox and dim-witted cat, Pinocchio loses the money he planned to use to buy Pappa Gepetto a Christmas present (which he obtained by selling the arithmetic book Gepetto bought him). This begins a series of very amusing adventures. The Pinocchio character is so cute in this show....he's very mischievous but very lovable. Another colorful and warm special from R/B.

This review is from: Pinocchio's Christmas [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This version of "Pinocchio" was created by Rankin/Bass, the same people, who produced "Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer," which originally aired in the 60's. This classic should be released on DVD by itself. Great Christmas classic with a great moral! Buy it today!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally a claymated version of Pinocchio, December 10, 2001

This review is from: Pinocchio's Christmas [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is the story of everyone's favorite wooden boy who's having his first Christmas. Things go very well, until Pinocchio goes to a puppet show to try and earn money for presents, and when he doesn't, he meets some girl the apple of his eye whose name is Julietta. Pinocchio steals Julietta from the puppet master and brings her to the forest of enchantment in hopes that someday she will come to life. While he and Julietta are having fun in the forest, a white glow comes and makes Pinocchio unconscious. Then the blue fairy brings him and Julietta to her throne room and Pinocchio tells her how he began to meet Julietta. Later on in the movie Pinocchio's wish about Julietta being alive comes true.

This movie, and Princess Mononoke are two state of perfection and promote good values, such as honor and love.
