If you can get it chipped up, it's great mulch. I doens't have any magical weed suppression properties any more than any other mulch - 3" thick of any wood mulch, and you are pretty much ok.
If you get much rain, pine mulch can increase the acidity in your soil (not bad for a bed of azaleas or rhododendrons). If you are worried, throw a couple handfulls of lime powder on top once you've spread it.
