Geppetto

Geppetto is a 2000 Disney live-action, musical retelling of the Pinocchio legend, through the eyes of his father, Geppetto(Drew Carey, Who's Line Is It Anyway?, The Price Is Right). The film is about Geppetto(Carey) being friendly to the children of an Italian village is wishing for a boy, and one night, his wish came true all thanks to the Blue Fairy(Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Seinfeld, The New Adventures of Old Christine) and Pinocchio comes to life. and soon Geppetto learns about being a father. Also, when a evil puppet master(Brent Spiner, Star Trek: Nemesis)hears about Pinocchio, he would do anything go take him from Geppetto. R&B superstar Usher, Rene Auberjonois(Star Trek: Deep Space Nine)and Wayne Brady(Crossover, Let's Make A Deal) also stars in this amazingly delightful family comedy. Although this DVD has no chapter index, or special features, it did little to diminish the quality of this movie. Geppetto is one of the best Disney live-action films to enjoy. :)

very nice thanks

When this aired on the Wonderful World of Disney back when I was a kid, I loved it!!! My dad recorded it on a VCR tapr and I watched it over and over again. As time past, I couldn't find the tape and don't remember how I lost it. To find it here after all these years, it brought back so many memories. I still remembered the lyrics to all the songs :)

So Drew Carey is not going to win any awards for his singing talent but this is a cute musical version of the pinocchio movie. I loved this movie as a child so it was fun to share it with my husband.

As three stars above say "it's ok". If you haven't seen it, don't spend the money. Try to see it for free first. I only bought it for curiosity sake and to add to my collection of Disney DVD's. Drew Carey does his best and can sing and dance, but Julia Louis Dreyfus does a bad imitation of Billie Burke and the songs are not up to standard.

This came very quickly. I have not opened it. I bought it as part of a Pinocchio- themed basket to raise money for a non-profit. This version of Pinocchio is based on the play, "My Son Pinocchio."

I guess you can save your money and rent it. It is a theatrical loose re-make of animated Pinocchio, sanitized for political correctness. There are very few dances or songs worth mentioning. The scenes of the town with perfect made-to-order children and Pleasure Island are unbearably long. I am not sure what ages this film is targeting: it is hard to develop any affection for the characters, any teachings dilute in the multiple dances and characters.

I'm not generally a Drew Carey fan, but he did a fantastic job as Geppetto. I didn't know he could sing! I purchased the movie years ago on video, but it took me several years to find it on DVD. Glad I was persistent!

Great. Thank you.
