Featured reviews
I thought Pinocchio 3000 was an excellent movie, Based on the Disney Movie Pinocchio, as this time this one is set in the future, for Pinocchio to be a robot instead of a wooden doll, i liked what was put into the movie as it was just like what the future would be like, cars, vans, etc: floating in the sky, everything that is set well into the future. In the year 3000, the 31st Century. Whoopi Goldburg is an excellent actress in my opinion, she has been for many decades. I never thought she would star in a movie that is animated and based on the same thing that's been made before. Overall i give this movie 10 out of 10 because i think it is fantastic. If i were you, go ahead and see this movie. You will be surprised with the difference.
I love this movie. It has flying hovercars in the city Scamboville in the sky. There are Hoverboards Mayor Scamboli, Cabby and Rodo, and Marline ride on. This movie has flying car chase scenes and flying car crashes. Best of all it has 3D hologram projectors and advanced robots.
I enjoyed the music to Pinocchio 3000. Songs like "What's the difference?" and "Welcome to Scamboland" dance. I enjoyed the instrumental music to the movie. I also liked how funny the 2 sidekick robots were and the plot to the futuristic movie of Pinocchio. It even has a message for environment people about how we shouldn't tear down, trees, plants and grass. (similar to "The Lorax" movie remake or Wall-e) It's the year 2013 and we don't have hover technology or 3D hologram technology yet curse it. I want those hoverboards, flying hovercars and 3D hologram projectors they have in "Pinocchio 3000" and become a reality. Because I'm ready for it now. Meantime this movie "Pinocchio 3000" will inspire me to build a real hoverboard.

Pinocchio 3000 is real, and beyond that, a spectacular ride through a beloved fairy tale, so on-point and crisp in retelling that it ascends both narrative and visual form. To say that the film is enlightening is foolish - it IS enlightenment. Watching this film, I understood the perils of the Buddha, the trials of Heracles, and the mighty blow that Zeus dealt against the titans. I saw through the robot penguin eyes of Uncle Spencer (Howie Mandel) and saw myself, my dreams and all I would be. Atonement is here, in the smug smile of Scamboli and the singing voice of Pinocchio. What's the difference between a robot and a man, indeed.
I'm not saying we should all watch this film - it is not for the weak of will, as looking into the holy void can lead to an endless madness should you delve too deep into Cyberina's grin. Pinocchio 3000 is a dangerous magic, but holy deliverance nonetheless.

This movie has many cool and intesing consepts but it dosent. Know how to use them. Some scenes felt. Unnecessary the environmentalist mesage whas pointles and was in this movie just becuse. The aimation is very good from a 2004 non american move (exept the trees and grass lossing texture when bicoming metal). Characters the are pretty genric and dull and the character disaning is GOD AFUL some thnigs could have been fixed Here and there so the story makes more sense. In the end pinochio 3000 felt like a missed oportunty but its not bad its a move for kids and it does its job at as a si fi pinocho farly well but if you want to wach a true si fi pinochio story jut go wach astro boy (any verson)
Pinocchio 3000 is not a bad movie as such, in fact I found the concept quite interesting. It does look beautiful for instance, the colours are plentiful and not too flat, the character designs are not too blocky and the backgrounds are quite detailed. The music is also pleasant, and the voice acting from Whoopi Goldberg and particularly Malcolm MacDowell is excellent. The rest of the film though is rather dull, the story is too thin and very predictable sometimes, and the writing doesn't fare much better sadly either. The physical humour gets tired fairly quickly and the dialogue is rather banal and simplistic. The moral is played in a rather heavy-handed way and while the characters are well designed and voiced the writing disallows them to have any depth to them. All in all, not bad but in a sense a missed opportunity. 5/10 Bethany Cox

- TriviaMichael Jackson participated in the production in the film. He gave some story suggestions to the film's producers, was set to perform an original song, and possibly help release the movie. However, Jackson's arrest in November 2003 due to sexual assault allegations would prevent him from doing so.
- GoofsThe traffic light for flying cars and walkway retractable pedestrians is useless and pointless as the flying cars can just as easily fly under or over the walkways, also why does the walkway bridges need to retract and why do hover cars need to stop for pedestrians on bridges, it would be better to just have permanent walkway bridges.
