Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio

During the rise of fascism in Italy, a magically living wooden boy struggles to meet his father's expectations while discovering what it means to be human. His curiosity and rebellious spirit lead him into a dangerous world of family, performance, war, and dark fantasy.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you appreciate emotionally rich fantasy, striking stop-motion, and darker fairy tales like Kubo and the Two Strings; Not for you if you want a light, fast, purely traditional family adventure.
