The movie had a good overall plot, but I was disappointed in the fight scenes and gore. Spoilers Ahead: Wanda becomes the main villain, but then doctor strange is also a villain? A lot of gore for a marvel movie, like usually yes there is some but this movie should definitely have been R-rated, the most disturbing scene being Dr Strange getting impaled by a pole. i feel morally a lot of the protagonists of previous movies (Wanda, Strange) got morally downgraded severely. It's also never addressed why Wanda and Strange are so attached to specifically those boys and Christine, respectively. Why are they incapable of finding anyone else?? Also please, please, please do not watch this movie high, every doctor strange movie has those scenes that make you feel like your doing drugs. To end on a positive note, I liked the post credit scene and thought it was some good closure.

This movie was deeply inspiring, for now I question whether I, and humanity as a species, are worthy of this life changing masterpiece. Immaculate, extravagant, and unequivocally brilliant are nowhere near enough to describe this film. This movie was truly encompassing of all emotions, along with profoundly polished animation, near flawless lip-syncing, and subtle and powerful moments of comedy. It is truly devastating to see Pinocchio long to "see the world", perhaps a sly reference to how the movie is released in our world (a clever nod for the viewers). In addition, the heartwarming moments where he gets shot by Lee "the cat" Harvey Oswald is truly a climatic moment. My first time watching the film, I ended up shaking, crying, and falling over. But when I woke up I ascended to the astral plane and witnessed millions of human lives being saved because of this masterpiece of a film. Thousands of people fell to their knees at various grocery outlets and fast food chains as I fell back into my own body. "Pinnochio: A True Story" defines the expansiveness of what we as a civilization can achieve if we dedicate ourselves wholeheartedly to our craft.
