At the center of the film lies a spiritual error. But the movie itself is a lot of fun.
Stray animals are one thing.
Warner Brothers has certainly improved their animated track record with this delightfully scripted and imaginatively drawn tale of a boy and his giant friend. There is something to please every age group in this film. In most instances, the laughter of the parents drowned out the higher pitched squeals of the younger set. After hearing a noise coming from his backyard, and seeing a path of destruction leading into the woods, he goes out to investigate. He soon finds the source of the inadvertent destruction.
