The Iron Giant—If you saw it in childhood and loved it, you will love it still. The adult re-watch most probably will generate a “Nothing’s changed. I love it!” For
the kid in you, this is it—a terrific animated feature for all ages.
Storyline
The Iron Giant (voice
of Vin Diesel) falls to earth and an adventuresome boy named Hogarth Hughes (voice
of Eli Marienthal) stumbles upon him, educates him, and then tries to save him
from the world.
Additional Thanks

Jr.), Foreman Marv Loach/Floyd Turbeaux (voice of James Gammon), Mrs. Tensedge

General Rogard (voice of John Mahoney), Earl Stutz (voice of M. Emmet Walsh), and

Buy a ticket? Yes?
No? Maybe?
Yes. It’s a childhood classic
worth another viewing as an adult. It’s the perfect addition to home movie
collections.
