Intelligent and well-written.

Rating: Null/10 (8 August 1999)

Finally, an animated feature that understands the premise that story counts for more than animation wizardry. This film assumes you have a heart and a mind. My five-year-old loved it and I loved it. It's funny and appropriately weighty (great Cold War context) without being preachy or stupid. Skip _Tarzan_ and see _Iron Giant_.
