great great enjoyable film

Rating: 10/10 (10 August 1999)

I loved this movie. Emotionally powerful, elegantly written, many genuine laughs, charming but not sugary or formulaic like certain mouse-driven productions. (and no songs or dances or cutesy marketable sidekicks, thankfully).
i not only cried several times, but my boyfriend did, too. I wish even a tenth of the movies out this summer had the care and skill in them that Iron Giant does.
Please see Iron Giant and send a good message to Hollywood about making good movies.
