Benigni - who played Pinocchio in a terrible 2002 live-action version - is brilliant as Geppetto.

Even though it remains accessible to all the family, the sheer oddity of it may well lead to a restless night, even for adults. The look is somewhat unsettling though, and what transpires is quite a scary film. Garrone doesn't shy away from being strange, and this movie wears it's bizarre tone and aesthetic like a badge of honor. This live-action version of Pinocchio - in Italian with English subtitles - is very much a retelling of the original Carlo Collodi story as opposed to the 1940 Disney animation, and it thrives in the absurd world that's spawned from the writer's mind. This movie comes from the creative mind of director Matteo Garrone who brings his distinctive surrealist and dark cinematic style to a much known and loved tale.

Though this is a free game, there are nearly tons of characters to buy, and though you'll get some as gifts, you usually have to buy them using real money or in-game currency. Characters can be squished by cars, drowned, or attacked by enemies, but it’s all done in a very cartoony way, without blood. Parents need to know that Disney Crossy Road is a clone of the popular game Crossy Road, a simple arcade game in which you help a pixelated character cross the road, much like Frogger from days past - only this time, the characters all come from Disney's movies and shows, instead of the iconic chicken from the original.
