A young boy finds friendship and more with a huge hunk of metal.

Rating: 9/10 (19 March 2000)

I would have given this 10 stars, except for the underlying topic of war and the use of army power. I think the message of friendship, understanding and acceptance came through, even for children. Adults will enjoy it for the nostalgia (TVs with antennas instead of cable, etc.), and children will like it for Hogarth's (the main character) exciting adventure.
