Didn't Get It

Rating: 3/10 (4 September 2002)

I was flipping through the dial and saw that the "Iron Giant" was coming up next. At first I got excited from all of the positive word of mouth I had heard about the film.
After 30 minutes of this movie, I was completely baffled. I would have to say this was okay at best. The little kid was so happy and enthusiastic that it made me nauseous. I sat there dumbfounded that adults would be so swept away with this. There was the obvious symbolism that can I am sure is mentioned by other users. Making a cartoon artsy doesn't make it good. It should first have an entertaining, non-nauseating plot.

See it if you want but don't have high expectations.
