Review: ‘Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio’ is beautiful but comes with too many strings attached

The mere title "Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio" announces that this stop-motion animated movie reflects the keen eye and visual style of the directing auteur, with a healthy dose of revisionism and reimagining baked into that. Yet despite its beauty, several of those narrative touches don't fully work, leaving behind a movie that's aesthetically lovely but narratively uneven.
