Iron Giant

Pros: Changes something that is meant to harm into something that chooses to help.
Cons: The ending could've been different.

When my 3 year old daughter asked me to purchase this video I must say I was skeptical because of the lack of box office enthusiasm that this movie generated. After watching the video the first time, I fell in love with it. I especially love how the...

Pros: Funny, easy to watch
Cons: None

While looking for a movie on the DSS that both myself and my kids would actually agree on, I happened across Iron Giant. Well, my 10 year-old son thought it would be to childish, but we watched it anyway. I was pleasantly surprised! The humor was...

Pros: teaches good values, gives kids a hero figure
Cons: none

When my husband suggested this movie because he remembered it when he was a kid, I thought "oh no, another science fiction movie". Boy was I wrong. My 4 year old son and 8 year old daughter have watched this movie over and over and over, and...

Pros: animated, bright colors, a lot of action
Cons: kinda sad in parts, kinda scary(but not too scary)in parts, some political and historical references may need to be explained

The Iron Giant is a good movie. The animation is wonderful as is the story line. nice bright colors for the younger crowd and enough inside jokes for the older folks. mostly i wanted to see this movie because i liked the preveiws. the movie is stet in...

Pros: Positive Outlooks
Cons: none

When you first sit down to this, you think "oh are the kids going to be scared?" But in a very short time, they are rooting for the good guys, laughing with them and just overall enjoying this giant of a childrens movie. It is fun on the...

Pros: Good story, action, no "adult" humor
Cons: A few bad words

I took the kids, ages 6 and 10 to see The Iron Giant, cringing as I went. I expected another "kid" movie full of sexual innuendo and violence. I was pleasantly surprised to find a genuine children's movie with a gentle message, a lot of...

Pros: Great, fresh looking animation, Good story
Cons: none of note

This movie is great for the young of heart at every age. I know that is very cliche but that is truly how to best describe The Iron Giant. With underlying messages against violence and war, this movie also teaches of compassion, tolerance, and...

Pros: Great Animation, Wonderful story, great characters
Cons: Couldn't tell you one........

Where should i start? The Iron Giant is a phenomenal film, for both children and adults. You will be gripping your sides in laughter throughout the movie. The film follows the exploits of Hogarth, a young boy in the Sputnik era fifties, who befriends...

Pros: Great animation, good plot, no cursing, a good clean kids movie
Cons: A little animated violence

While watching this movie, with my ten-year old son, I became a kid again. This movie proves that innocence still exists and that, to a child at least, the outside doesn't count but that it's what's on the inside that really matters. In this film a...

Pros: Good triumphs over evil
Cons: Lord's name taken in vain once, I believe

Not only did my children (ages 2 and 5) enjoy it, but my husband and I did as well. It is a fascinating tale of good vs. evil, and making right choices. Another theme of the movie that we discussed was being who YOU want to be, not what other people...

Pros: Story and production are first rate.
Cons: None, except that not enough people watched this movie in its theatrical run.

I think I love this film more than any kid in America, and I'm 21. It's always wonderful to find a movie that adults will enjoy just as much kids will, and The Iron Giant hits it on the nail. You're thinking, big giant robot, so what? It's not like...

Pros: Mature theme, quality 50's style animation
Cons: Too cutesy for adults, too scary and sad for kids

I so wanted to love this film - after everything I'd heard about it, it sounded like it was right up my alley. Finally, an American animated film without a lot of fluffy songs, without a bunch of cutesy Disney characters, and with a mature story adapted...

Pros: none
Cons: offensive

I thought I was going to like it, I really did but not this one. My husband rented this movie for my girls to watch this weekend. The animation was good the voices were cute but I was really disappointed in the content of this movie. Maybe it was meant...

Pros: cute story, good animation
Cons: bad language and one sided content

I admit that I happened into this movie halfway through. I had just came home and my husband and two sons were watching it. He told me it was really a cute movie and I should sit down with them and finish it out.

So I sat back and listened...

Pros: feel good
Cons: swearing, some adult content

We watched this tonight and my 2 year old son loved it! Even more surprising is my 8 year old daughter did too! I think the whole family was crying! It is about a boy who becomes friends with this giant robot that the Army is searching for. There is...
