Astro Boy's Review

Astro boy is a great movie, if you're under the age of 12. It's basically a Pinocchio-meets-Iron Giant tale about Dr Tenma (a robotics professor) who lost his son, Tobey, in an experiment. He decided to make his own Iron Man version to replace Tobey but then later realized that the robot has a characteristic of its own. The animation of the movie is slick; from the battle scenes to the hovering-around-the-sky scenes. The dialogue however, was kept G-Rated throughout the movie. Jokes like "there's a machine gun in my butt" makes anyone above the age of 16 look stupid watching the movie. The movie succeeds only to charm kids, that is why it is so difficult to review this movie. For what it's worth, we get the moral of the story; positive energy conquers negative energy. At least they made that part clear.

Overall: 3.9 / 10
