Not a bad movie, 10 October 2000
Author: william c. uchtman (<aesgaard41@hotmail.com) from hendersonville, tennessee

I don't care what anyone says,I like this movie.It shows a side to the Pinocchio story I never once considered. Drew Carey is funny,Julia Louis-Dreyfuss is radiant [this role has to be a little embarrassing to her,but I love the glimpses through her dress ] and the cameos are intriguing.Rene Auberjonais,Brent Spiner and Drew's buddy Wayne Brady from "Whose Line Is It, Anyway" fill out the wonderfully magically cast.The film is worth a see just for the inside of the whale. It just goes to prove that movie critics don't know anything.
