Synopsis:
A little boy befriends a giant robot from outer space. But a nosey government
fuck tries to uncover the secret.
Review:
Now before anyone calls me a fag, let me explain. I bought this movie
on a total whim. I love the 50's and that's when this movie takes place.
It's also drawn in a real 50's manner too. Wait a minute; I think I sound
more gay now then before the explanation. I knew this was going to happen.
The movie was pretty
cool. I liked it. Although there are times when I felt it was a bit too
kiddy. One cool point about the film is that the giant is totally computer
generated. But it's really hard to tell because they used cartoon textures
on him.
I also wanna give out
some props to Harry Connick Jr. and Christopher McDonald who both played
great roles. They added a lot to the film and made it very fun to watch.
Stand up guys I tell ya.
Special Features :
The trailer was just that. The music video was just bouncy music with
images ripped from the movie. Nothing too special. The best thing was
the "making-of" documentary which very informative. It wasn't one of those
5-minute jobs either, it was 20 minutes and you can tell it was taken
directly for WBKids TV. The website was cool and the web events had chats
with the makers of the movie. Which again was very informative.
Video:
The quality of the video is hard to determine because it was a cartoon.
But the images were very sharp. You can see every defining line. The computer-generated
robot was seamlessly blended into the animated surroundings. The only
time the quality of the video wasn't top notch was in the special features,
but hey dat's all right.
Audio:
It was fucking great. I love the super bass you get when the giant stomps
around the joint. All around a bang up job.
"Wow, my own giant robot.
I am now the luckiest kid in America! This is unbelievable. This is the
greatest discovery since, I don't know, television of something." -Hogarth
