The Iron Giant 10/10
using the strict IMDB rating system (1-10, integers only), I give this 10/10. On my own scoring system, I'd say it's 96/100
Probably the best animated movie I've ever seen.
A really terrific movie. The animation style is clean and simple, like a cross between Miyazagi (eg Ponyo, Princess Mononoke) and late 60s/early 70s Disney (Jungle Book/Aristocats), and it has great characterisation, detail, framing, dialogue, storytelling, and it is charming and funny. Every character save maybe the villain is authentic, and even Vin Diesel give a good performance in conveying the humanity and feeling within this big Iron man.
The battle scenes at the end made me chuckle as it obviously been copied by Pacific Rim, but the film has more heart, emotion, character development and talent than any new movie I've seen this year. This movie says something, and it moves me.
Always worth watching.
