Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Inconsistent, far from Disney, but pleasantly surprising at times.
A year after Pinocchio's fairy godmother made him a real boy, he requests the task of delivering a special music box made by his father, Geppetto (Tom Bosley), for the mayor of their village. Of course, Pinocchio (Scott Grimes) gets sidetracked by a carnival and two greedy con artists, a raccoon named Scalawag (Ed Asner) and a monkey named Igor (Frank Welker). As you might expect from Pinocchio, he ends up trading the music box to the pair for a fake gem, and when he is scolded for his foolish mistake, ... Read More
Rating: - Average stuff on its own, but no match for the now famous Disney classic.
Produced at a time when animation was in a serious slump, this rather curious feature, produced by Filmation Studios, attempts to make a sequel out of a now famous fairy tale, Carlo Collidi's PINOCCHIO. Walt Disney had made the story popular in his lavishly animated and emotionally powerful motion picture, and to this day it remains a masterpiece. Based on that, there is no way that this 1987 continuation could ever compare. Regrettably, the artistry in this movie doesn't live up to the original either. ... Read More
Rating:  - bizarre but faulty
When I first saw this when I was six, it really creeped me out. The scene with Pinocchio being transformed into a puppet again was chilling to me. However, I recently got the idea to watch it again. So I ordered it used off of Amazon. This time I noticed its faults. The songs are mediocre and the plot unmemorable. However, it does have its creepiness to keep it from being absolutely terrible, but that's not enough of a reason for me to recommend it.
Rating:  - Melodious!
I wasn't around at the time Pinocchio and the Emperor of the Night was released into theaters, but now I have the tape my dad gave me. I watched it the very night I got it, and it is simply wonderful!
The story begins when a carnival mysteriously pulls up to shore from a ship, and Lt. Grumblebee (Jonathan Harris), seeing this, buzzes away since he doesn't want to go near it. Meanwhile, as daybreak comes, Geppetto (Tom Bosley; Happy Days, Murder She Wrote) bakes a birthday cake for his newly human ... Read More
Rating:  - Still like it!
I watched this around the same time as I first saw Unco and it still has stayed with me. I never was much for Pinocchio side kicks in it, but the Emperor himself is a truly fearsome sight and I love the fact that at the very end after the evils defeat, the puppet Pinocchio loved so much was turned alive. I am 20 myself and I have to say, age doesn't matter when it comes to classics, and this is truly one of them. For those looking for movies of the same type Little Nemo would be another great film to pick up:)
