I kinda hated the movie. Character motivation is one of the most important aspects for me to enjoy a story and it was horrendous in the movie. Geppetto HATED Pinocchio and wanted nothing to do with him. He was forced onto him and he didn't care. Then after 2 days of not giving a shit, he uproots his life to search for him after he WILLINGLY left to join a circus, earn money and become famous. That makes no sense from his character point of view and runied the entire movie in mine.

Did you sleep through parts of it or something?

Watch the beginning again before Pinocchio leaves. They barely interact with each other and Geppetto definitely doesn't care about him at that point.

Is a person allowed to be emotional and change their mind? Have you ever gotten mad and yelled at a friend or family member, Been mad at them for a few days and then made up? This is life my friend.

It was 2 days with no meaningful interaction.

If you enjoyed the movie, great! I just couldn't.

I can understand you don’t like it. I just can’t see you not understanding that he had a change of heart.
