No crickets, no nose-growing when he tells a lie and even no turning naughty boys into donkeys on Pleasure Island. Pinocchio's true story indeed.

“I don’t know if I should apologize-“ Are you KIDDING? You gave us a most treasured and special meme

How fitting that this is coming out on April Fools Day. ‘Cause the movie itself is an April Fools joke.

The movie that became a meme...

This won't get the seal of garbage, this will get the walrus of dumpster fire....

One of the biggest sins in this movie was casting Tom Kenny as Gepetto. My man deserves better roles

People don't realize that it was Animat who posted the tweet about Pinocchio's voice which caused it to go viral

7:38 mat reaction was priceless.

“FaThEr WhEn CaN i LeAvE tO bE oN mY oWn I gOt ThE wHoLe WoRlD tO sEe.”

This movie easily has the “best” voice acting in a animated film no doubt about it :/

*this is the most accurate of the history of Pinocchio ever it's a MASTERPIECE*

9:16 Matt's dawning look of comprehension over what's about to happen had me doubled over laughing!

27:25 “Their names are actually just Cat and Fox, that’s it?” Yep, that’s the book for you. Also the book contained many other talking animals, including a fish, a dog, a crab and a parrot. No horses named Tybalt though.

Ah yes. The meme movie of the year!

If there’s a category for best worst film of the year, this would definitely win!!! This will definitely go down as the room of animated films. But I’m still interested to see guillermo del toro version in December.

Honestly all the human characters looked so wooden that I didn’t notice much of a difference when Pinocchio became a real boy.

I love how in the intro you're trying not to laugh while doing your true story rant

Let me say something about that film. As a Russian by blood, this is not the country's best nor groundbreaking achievement. It made me confounded and dumbstruck that they usually make their films and series with optimism, care, time and dedication. In fact, Yuri Norshtein, one of Russia's prolific and influential animators and storytellers, has dedicated his whole life, alongside his wife and artist whom works for him, to make an animated film that is still in production for 40 years and they were still working on it! Russia's films and series has a lot of words to describe them individually. They are philosophical, satirical, witty, funny, heartwarming, tense, optimistic, bitter, sweet, tragic, charming, haunting, educative, loveable, beautiful, cute, down to earth, imaginative, fantastical, wonderful, deep, thought provoking and memorable. They DO NOT make films and series that they preach about communism. They most CERTAINLY do not. They tell personal stories and also adapt stories from everywhere else, even US. Rather it be folk tales, short stories, fairy tales, children's novels etc. Talking of which here are two recommendations that is about them. One is a 15 part documentary series called "Кто нарисовал нас?" or "Who drew us?" which it tells the history of Russian, Ukrainian, Belorussian and Estonian animation. You can find it on KZfaq. The other recommendation is a website, "Animation Obsessive", in which it has a lot of stories, both biographical and behind-the-scenes, of animated films and series of the Russian animation industry. You can simply type, Animation Obsessive, to find it. Before I can finish this comment, I wanted to say something. Russian animation, alongside US, Canada, UK, France, Italy (both recently), a hint of Czech, Poland and China and also Japan were all apart of my life. I cannot imagine how I came about without them. That's all there is, there isn't anymore.

Father! When can I go to the movies on my own, I got this Pinocchio movie to see! 😩😒💅

"FATher, WHeN cAn I LeaVe to be on my OOOWN...? XD XD XD

Pauly Shore did great as Bobby from the Goofy movies, he's not that bad an actor, so clearly, his performance as Pinocchio has to be terrible on purpose, LOL. He probably saw that the movie was garbage so he made it even worse in an effort to at least make the movie so bad it's good and I guess it worked cuz the movie is memeable and funny for the worst reasons. XD

I know the question we're all asking. How will Guillermo del toro's Pinocchio ever measure up to this masterpiece?

It's a good thing everything Animat says is true or his nose would be growing XD

7:39 that right there is the purest look of absolute joy I've ever seen

The fact that Pauley Shore is in this is enough for me to say NOPE!

Marvel: We make hilarious after credits scenes AniMat: 38:24 - 38:37

This Pinocchio movie is really giving me: The Room vibes, No,..I did not hit her.....oh hi mark.

Finally, the moment we’ve been waiting for…

Can we all agree A Goofy Movie is the only really good thing Pauly Shore has ever done? As for this, I say you should stick to the Phoenix Games version. At least it's funny.

All we need is a top 5 times Pinocchio: A True Story broke you. Like with The Treasure Planet.

The irony this was published on April 1st… what a true story

"Did he start out drunk?" Yes! I'll bet you Pauly Shore had to be drunk for this!!!

This feels like those Krampus movies that released at the same.

And to think that this would've been just another terrible animated film dubbed by the Dove Foundation that people wouldn’t have even given a second glance at had you not put Pauly Shore's terrible acting on blast. One person really can make a difference.

0:40 I know this is a joke for the intro, but I have to say it: that's where you're wrong: you have two versions with the ACTUAL book story followed PERFECTLY (although the live action one has a technical liberty which helps the adaptation to feel more realistic, tho): 1971's animated movie "The adventures of Pinocchio" by Giuliano Cenci and a 1972's live-action Italian miniseries by the same name directed by Luigi Comencini

This feels surprisingly appropriate to release on April 1st to me

I'm Glad that this version of Pinocchio has to be popular on the memes

Kinda sad he's not doing an "Animat Reviews" on this movie. But then I realized it wouldn't be fair. *No other movie would be able to surpass it.*

Here's to hoping the one with Del Toro is great

If I had a VERY bad day, I just watch this so bad it's hilarious movie! The voice acting is more wooden than Pinocchio himself!😂

I like Pinocchio’s reaction to being revived “yeah I guess so”.

Instead of watching this, watch the Disney version. Or read the original, dark story by Carlo Collodi

Pinocchio: A True Story: *exists* Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio: "Finally, a worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary."

We were the fools on this day to watch the True Story of Pinocchio.

Father, when can I leave to be on my own?

Classic Pauly Shore: *CHEDDA WHIZZY!!!* Here: Father, when can he leave to be on his oOooWWwNn? 😩💅 He's got the whole wOrlDuSsy!

Can't believe you ACTUALLY watched it, You definitely have a soul of steel only to be melted by the absolute cringe out of Pinocchio's voice, My boy Bobby Zimuruski (The guy who once questioned why everyone wears gloves) not sounding good anymore. Pinocchio having a love interest is not my Pinokes, The Disney one, Best nostalgic character ever, The DreamWorks one (Shrek) Actual representation of an actual wooden boy, The Lionsgate one looks like Link with two of Spider-Man's colours with a wood texture and is a teen, not a boy. And if we though Norm of the North was bad, OOOOOH boy, This is more crazily weird for Mat to handle.

7:38 And here is where he starts acting like Peter Griffin when a person says the title of the movie in the movie.

The Voiceactor of Pinocchio Sounds like a homeless alcoholic on slow motion. 😆👍

At least this is "So bad its good" territory, i'm doubtful the 2022 Disney Live Action remake version will be anything other than just plain terrible.

7:38 Here's the ironically iconic line.

Here are some ideas for your next reaction video The Reef-Finding Nemo Rip Off Home on the range Howard the duck A cars life The Drawn Together Movie Delgo The Cat In The Hat 2003 Any of the Happy Madison films

Pauly Shore ain't Pinocchio. DICKIE JONES ALL THE WAY!

7:38 Say the line bart! bart:

The look of excitement on his face whenever pinnocio said the meme quote was hilarious

Father, when can I leave to be on my owwwwwwwwwn?

0:50 You take it back what you said about Collodi and his original novel! XD Also I much rather read Collodi’s Novel, and watch the 1940 Disney Classic and the 2019 Film.

You know, without looking at the country that created this, I had a suspicion that it was ours who animated it (Russians). And yes, I was right. It is this kind of shit that Russian film studios have been producing in recent years. Alas ... And I would be glad to say that there are good cartoons, but being an animator myself, I can’t say this. I mean what has been produced for the last 10-15 years. And it's very sad :(

Even with the distracting animation issues, like the girl's 'gravity defying' hair, the poor acting really makes up for it. That and Tom Kenny's genuine performance is a nice touch. Also gotta give Pauly Shore credit for embracing the meme you created. It just needs a Leaning Tower of Cheesa and it'll be perfect! And yeah, you're right about this 'true story' lacking some iconic moments! I guess this movie was too cheap to add the growing nose or Pleasure Island. Maybe the talking horse was a victim of the latter that escaped to Geppetto's workshop and decided to stay there.

"mama Mia a wooden boy" *BANG*

This is my favorite AniMat video. I just love his energy while reacting and especially when he cheered at the meme quote.

His opening commentary about how no films tell the true story is HILARIOUS

Wait did she just Rapunzel heal him

This Pinokio's voice would be great for a D&D player character!

Fatherwhencanileavetobeonmyown

7:39 the pure happiness when Pinocchio said the line has cleared my skin

Maybe make top 10 worst musical numbers in animation movies

That won't be last upcoming Pauly Shore and Jon Heder animated movie you'll have to sit through. Seen the trailer to My Sweet Monster?

38:24; (Comic Book Guy impression) best...lip-sync...ever.

I personally love the Disney version and sci-fi remake

This movie oh man. This was something bro, the skdskdskdskd, the infamous meme line and Pinocchio getting shot were highlights for the movie.

I can see a future review of this!

Omg! I can't believe I didn't know about this being so bad yet it's so good! That voice for the title character is the topping of the April fool's day cake. Happy April Fool's day everyone! 😆 🎥 🎨

So this exists. Why.

Obviously, this doesn't hold a candle to the 1940 Disney classic, but I would even argue that it doesn't hold a candle to Pinocchio and the Emperor of the Night. While far from perfect, Pinocchio and the Emperor of the Night still had some interesting ideas and a heaping helping of the weird darkness that '80s family films were known for.

15:20 Live Animat Reaction.

As a Italian Pinocchio fan I have two thing to say First: I've just seen the trailer, and, a part from the jokes, I would like to see a original take on Pinocchio's story difrrent from the usual stuff Second: "Just the jokes? What about the voice?" I'm Italian, I can give all the crap I want if the English dub sucks. Let's just hope we don't make a Dark Knight thing in which we did preserve Bale's silly deep voice in the dubbing (yet, we made Bane sound more normally).

Why Pauly Shore? Why are you in this movie???

is Pinocchio voiced by Tommy Wiseau in this film??🤣

He should also check out Suur Tõll (1980), a short film made in Estonia. It's quite a trip oh boy!

Please mat make a review on this movie

Happy April Fools Day

Oh Yeah! I was excited for this

Let me ask animat this, do you know about cellspex, another film reviewer you tube channel

"I HAVE EVERYTHING UNDER CONTROL MUAHAHAHAHAH" that line killed me

“Father, when can I go from thirties era, depression era child 🧒 star ⭐️ Dickie Jones to laid back comic Pauly Shore!” 🤣

One thing I had to learn the hard way while watching this is that there were never any explanations for anything.

(Pinocchio 2022 appears) The Simpsons: “Aww..” (Pinocchio 1987 appears) The Simpsons: “Aww!” (Pinocchio 1940 appears) The Simpsons: “AWW!!!!” (Pinocchio 2022 steps in front of Pinocchio 1940. Homer shoves Pinocchio 2022 aside.) Homer Simpson: “Outta the way, you!”

25:16 that moment where you have heard this before

Tom Kenny as Albus Dumbledore

A disney bootleg

Can't wait for him to review this.

I would say tom kenny also deserves better. That guy has mad talent

Say what you will about this movie, but it’s hilarious in all the wrong ways

This isn't the true version of the story. Everybody knows the true version starred Drew Carey.

Pinocchio sounds like tower of cheese guy from goof movie

I almost thought he was going to watch the upcoming Live-Action version, but nope

“What a timing to watch a movie from Russia” are you serious -_-

hi i used to be obsessed w ur channel in 2016-2018 and i havent watched a single video of urs in like. 4-5 years but this alone. the guy who accidentally created the gay pinnochio meme watching that very movie. that was enough to bring me, a now grown adult, back here. so thank u

The 1996 one used to scare the shit out of me as a kid
