I liked it
My wife and I got a chance to go see it. I really liked it. The Pinnochio theme is there, but there is much more to it than that.
As we walked out, some people around us were saying stuff like "that really sucked"... but oh, well... it's not for everyone.
Of course, I liked it because of the robotics, and I'm a nut for movies that make you think, especially the sci-fi type. Also, this movie depicts the unconditional love of a child very well. As a parent, that hit me very hard.
As for the history of this movie, Kubrick worked on this for 15 years, but could never get past a few tricky parts... he was a perfectionist. If you saw the movie, there are some parts that have loopholes, but Spielberg made it work. It's 2001-ish (the movie), and drags a bit toward the end... but it's worth it.
Of course, the special effects are awesome.
Two thumbs up for me.
