Review of Pinocchio

Pinocchio (1971)
waste of time
18 September 2009
As other reviewers have noted, this movie had the potential to be good, but the direction is so mind-numbing bad that it is not worth watching. In fact, the viewer ought to feel insulted at the way the director insults their intelligence. Every cliché is overplayed, as if it is assumed that the viewer is too stupid to get the joke unless they are hit over the head with it.

I think the filmmakers couldn't decide whether they wanted to do a soft-core porn flick or an adult-themed comedy, so they tried to do a little of both, and ended up doing neither. In fact, it represents the worst of both genres: a soft-core porn that is not erotic and comedy that is not funny.

Monica Gayle is beautiful to look at (as always), but other than that, the film has no redeeming value.
