I've ALWAYS hated the story of Pinocchio.
Yes, the story is about a puppet not understanding right from wrong - and so does the wrong thing and earns consequences from those actions.
But it always resulted in such an unlikable character.
Then Del Torro comes around and makes the best version literally ever. Everything is perfect.
He didn't join the circus because he was a little twat. He joined because, in the town where people resented him, he found a place where he was 'loved' and 'accepted.'
And for once! Geppetto is written to be an actual human being! Not some pure-hearted old man incapable of any other emotion than love. Del Torro's Geppetto is flawed. He's human. He's in pain. His love for Pinocchio is genuine. He doesn't love the puppet because tHaT's ThE RiGhT thInG tO dO - but because he actually loves him.

Things I expected in Del Toro's Pinocchio:
A cute little puppet boy
Characters dancing and having fun
A talking cricket
Some sad bits that add to the depth of the film and make the happy parts more meaningful
Things I did not expect in Del Toro's Pinocchio:
Pinocchio pointing out hypocrisy in Christian beliefs and morals
Geppetto becoming an alcoholic due to his depression following the death of his son
Geppetto's son dying from a bombing during world war 1
Pinocchio telling Mussolini to eat shit and immediately getting shot
Pinocchio being kidnapped and sent to a facist child soldier camp

Exclusive: Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio Movie is a bit gothic, a touch monstrous, and more philosophical than you might imagine. “It tackles very deep ideas about what makes us human,” he tells V.F. in this first look: http://vntyfr.com/m3o9fxv
