I recall seeing Pinocchio as a kid and not fully understanding everything I saw, but that I still liked it. Seeing it again as an adult, I now fully understand all of the film and still find it a special film. It's not necessarily for the youngest of children but most kids and adults will be able to find some bits of magic in Pinocchio. The animation and quite good and the world the story inhabits is visually rich and interesting. The handful of tunes are bright and effective and facilitate the story well. As for the little boy/puppet Pinocchio, he's not dislikable but yet the way he's written and played he's also not a character that you develop strong feelings for either, although he is on some level a very relatable character. Nevertheless, this early Disney animated film is definitely worth checking out.
