That's One Small Step for Animation... One Giant Leap For WB

Rating: Null/10 (17 August 1999)

I can't say enough good about this film. No songs and no stupid sidekick, just an old fashioned story with great animation, humor, sadness and joy. The retro 50's look was a big hit and the voices seemed to fit perfectly. Was the animation as good as Tarzan... maybe not as a whole (but the giant was super!); was the story as good as Tarzan... better imho.
I can't believe I actually had a tear in my eye (my girlfriend was sniffling of course) and at the end the whole theatre was applauding. I've read WB is taking a bath on this feature and it just doesn't seem right... this is so much better than Tarzan. I'll have to see it a few more times to help WB out, and I don't even have kids! This was truely a magical animated feature.
