Watch 964 Pinocchio For Free

Brilliant and touching

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Pinocchio 964 is about a woman puking and a guy screaming. And just like modern art, it is garbage no one wants to see unless your IQ is below ignoramus level. The metamorphosis stuff is the only thing that stands out but all the screaming was annoying as hell and endless puking was meaningless and stupid.

When speaking of importance or legend, Tetsuo: The Iron Man will always be the film in which all cyberpunk films are measured against. Good thing that it is an absolutely brilliant piece of work -- but, honestly, I believe this film (and Death Powder, but good luck finding that one) is slightly better overall and is amongst my favorite films of all time.Starting out very slow, this film eventually ramps up into a speed that has yet to be toppled by any other film. You will find a great atmosphere, amazing music, some unbelievable effects, and a stunning sequence in which Pinnochio runs through a crowd of tens of thousands of Japanese people. The acting is top-notch, the pacing is unconventional, and there are scenes that are absolutely mindblowing.It's hard to describe exactly what this film is. Though the plot is deceptively simple, to summarize it would make this film sound boring. Really, it's not about the plot so much as it's about pouring on weird effects, images of steam and metal, and squirting paint and blood everywhere. This review won't do it justice, but if you're interested in the least in cyberpunk or "weird" movies, this should be at the top of your list. For me, it's an unbelievable and undeniable classic. Looking forward to the day Criterion re-releases this.

This movie isn't made by Disney. If you enjoy watching films that surprise you... this will do the trick. Not in the sense of "The Usual Suspects," but more like "Saw." When I say that I really, really liked this flic, it's more because I never saw anything like it before. Sure, since it's come out, others may have gone more over the top with shock value. But seeing all of "Pinnochio 964" visual effects, and its character behavior that can't be predicted... blew me away!When I'm asked to describe the movie... I tell someone "it's a mix between 'Clockwork Orange','Natural-Born Killers,' and 'Blue Velvet.' But then I say, "But with less dialogue and more Flashes!"Put it this way... I discovered this film hanging out in a club. The DJ was playing this as a backdrop on the TV monitors. It has the strength to make people grooving on the dance floor, stop and stare! Powerful stuff! Now, on DVD, I'll be able to pause and use Slow-Mo.

I can understand why Renee would dislike this film, since is it a very strange, artsy, and disturbing film. It isn't for everyone. If you liked Tetsuo the Iron Man, you would like this too, because they are both in the same genre, now called "Asia Extreme" or something. I gave this movie 10 stars because it is totally unique and visually diverse. Some of the things you are exposed to in the movie will shock you or disturb you. It is very colorful and extreme. There is another movie by the same director called "Rubbers Lover" which is also incredibly interesting, but isn't in color and is even more "out there" than this, so I prefer Pinocchio 964. It's actually one of my most favorite films
