| | Customer Reviews: great classic Disney (03 September 2010)Not one of my favorite Disney movies but still enjoyable. I collect Disney movies so I bought this as part of that. I watched it after years of never watching it. It is a decent Disney but not a favorite. Nice that is was brought of the vault! Disney's Pinocchio never looked better (03 August 2010)I always enjoyed Disney's version of Pinocchio, especially the music. It never looked or sounded better than in this blu-ray version. Amazing! A must-see on Blu-Ray! (02 August 2010)I just finished seeing Pinocchio on Blu-Ray, and I am amazed. This movie is older than Citizen Kane, but it looks like a dream. I understand some people have claimed the colors have been tampered with. It is true that there was a sepia tone to the VHS and previous DVD, that is now gone. Whether that sepia tone was truly the original look of the film, I am not old enough or knowledgeable enough to say. What I do know is that the movie looks fantastic on Blu-Ray, as if it was made yesterday (though hand-drawn animation of this quality is rare these days), and I commend Disney on that. Of course, I would not be giving a Blu-Ray five stars simply for the image quality. Many claim that Pinocchio is one of Disney's best feature films, if not the best. Unfortunately, I haven't seen many Disney feature films since the '90s when I was a kid, so I can't really compare Pinocchio to anything but fuzzy memories. But I did greatly enjoy Pinocchio. The animation is unbelievable, and the hand-painted backgrounds look wonderful. The characters are hilarious and charming. The story is of course the classic Pinocchio story based on the 1883 novel, a kind of dark morality tale, really, what with the child slavery element. This is a perfect movie for kids, but adults should definitely watch it as well. The animation is both technically and artistically exquisite, and the movie as a whole has a charm to it that is truly special. Blu-Ray Technical Specs (21 July 2010)Pinocchio (Two-Disc 70th Anniversary Platinum Edition + Standard DVD+ BD Live) [Blu-ray] Feature film Blu-Ray technical specifications: Video: 1080p, 1.33:1 Audio: * English dts-HD Master Audio 7.1 (48 kHz/24-bit) * "Restored Original Theatrical Soundtrack" (possibly English mono?) I'm hopeful that Amazon's technical specifications listings will become more useful. Pinocchio (20 July 2010)This sure brought back memories of my childhood...we would gather around TV and have waffle sundaes when Walt Disney shows comes on Sunday. It sure is to watch these as the morals and lessons are good for kids and adults as well. It is also a clean story. |
