One of my top favorite movies of all time, You can watch it again and again.. Yet, the ending is great as is the entire film. Easy to follow and enjoy, this animated film is a classic. It is not a Disney film, and it is unknown to many people, you cannot go wrong watching this. I remember seeing this in the theaters when it was released, and I went back 3 times to watch it again. Well written and fascinating in viewing, this film is about an Iron Giant Robot that comes to earth and eventually helps the earth to survive. During this holiday season, this is a family event. Hit the link below and read the other reviews. I am not the only one who thinks this is a great film.
.. If you hit the link, also look for "see more awards".....
"The Iron Giant" is lots of fun, and is impossible to forget..

(1,264 posts)The iron giant is animated at twice the frames per second that the hand-drawn characters are animated. The resultant fluidity of the giant's movements may create a subliminal distinction between humans and "the other" in the mind of the viewer.
