And his collaborations with Tom Hanks – ‘Gump’, for which Hanks was amongst the Oscar winners – and survival drama ‘ Cast Away’ are still considered classics. While he’s had a few misses in his time (‘ Welcome to Marwen’ and his remake of ‘ The Witches’ didn’t feel the critics’ love and didn’t do much for audiences either), he’s a proven talent. Robert Zemeckis is no slouch when it comes to movies, having made the likes of the ‘ Back to the Future’ trilogy, ‘ Forrest Gump’ (which won, let’s not forget, six Oscars), ‘ Contact’, ‘ Death Becomes Her’, ‘ Flight’ and more. And that’s even more surprising given the pedigree of people behind and in front of the camera. Unfortunately, in the case of ‘ Pinocchio’, the result is one of the much lesser examples of that effort. Premiering on Disney+ on September 8th, Disney+ Day, the studio’s new version of ‘ Pinocchio’ continues its drive to make newer, live-action versions of its animated output.
