    I don't know what to say about this one. it was ok of a kid robot cartoon. It could be called sad but to me it wasn't realy sad cause it just didn't get to me. I gues for me I would have to be in a depressed mood to feel sad about thie story? I don't know how to describe this one...( read more) it was just OK

    Astro boy, an adaptation of the classic Japanese manga, In comics and Tv for the last 58 years finally comes to the big screen. Its full of complex emotional and humorous adventure that kids and adults are sure to enjoy.

    Animation will always get a good rating from me as long as film makers make a good storyline.

  • December 28, 2009
    Yeah its alright, but we need to pushing the computer animation now not just re using it. oh and a good story helps aswell LOL
  • December 27, 2009
    It's actually a good movie if you're not in the mood for something complicated. The movie manages to be both funny and heartwarming/breaking (depending on the scene). The CG is interesting and the characters seem rather well though.

    not so many people know who astroboy is. Only reason I know is back in the 80's and early 90's ZCanadian tv showed it on saturdays and we'd watch it.

  • December 22, 2009
    Truth is I'm not 100% that children will get the story line exactly, with its political undertones and such, but luckily the action sequences and pretty awesome visual effects are all that's needed to keep them glued to their seat.
  • December 20, 2009
    Pretty good for the kids
  • December 20, 2009
    The first superhero that I like (and the only one). Perhaps because he's miniature or perhaps because he is good at math. I cannot say for sure.

    Combinaison des genres tant sur le plan visuel que culturel, Astro Boy se révèle une très bonne surprise même si le propos est bien évidemment trop gentillet.
  • December 16, 2009
    Very enjoyable CG animation movie of the famous Japanese manga Astro Boy. Dr Tenma's young son is killed in an accident so he builds a robot replica of him. But the military have their own agenda for Astro Boy. 2009 has been a fantastic year for CG animated features so far and th...( read more)is one continues that fine run. A great exciting storyline with some thrills and spills, the voice actors did well and there's some cool sequences on show. An excellent movie for all the family.

    This film is quite boring and I think it's more suitable for kids instead.
  • December 13, 2009
    Un autre bon bonhomme a voir..avec plusieurs passes très comique :) et j'ai même versée une larme a la fin!

    one of my favorite cartoons growing up

    Three Laws of Robotics:

    1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
    2. A robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
    3. A robot must protect it...( read more)s own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

    great movie I actually liked it a lot almost all the voice actors where good except Nic Cage but I don't know if this was his fault or the writers because he didn't have too much to work with!! but still what he had wasn't good either!!

    When a scientist's young son dies, he se...( read more)cretly creates a powerful robot child to replace him, however the robot uses it's incredible powers to become a world famous super-hero, and faces his biggest challenge when an alien race threatens Earth.

    Astro Boy follows the adventures of a young-yet-powerful robot who, in the hopes of winning his inventor-father?s heart, sets off on a quest to rid the world of evil. However, he soon discovers that his home, Metro City, stands on the brink of destruction, and it is up to him to save the day as well as his friends and family.



    Set in futuristic Metro City, Astro Boy is about a young robot with incredible powers created by a brilliant scientist in the image of the son he has lost. Unable to fulfill the grieving man's expectations, our hero embarks on a journey in search of acceptance, experiencing betrayal and a netherworld of robot gladiators, before he returns to save Metro City and reconcile with the father who had rejected him.

    I think it was cool. It's sad that he died but i was realived that he turn out ot be a robot ! I watch it twice wit my bff! It was a good movie.
  • November 27, 2009
    I like the character and the movie very much.

    I'm not surprised if it finally get nod for Oscar, but I think the Academy will favor either Up or Hayao Miyazaki's 2009 anime.

    Rated 3 stars by Roger Ebert.

    I never saw the original series, but this new movie was AWESOME!!!!!! the beginning was sad, though, but it was full of action, comedy and a little touch of romance. That dvd is MINE!!!!!!(when it comes out, of course)
  • November 22, 2009
    A fun, colorful action movie. It is sad to me when a movie like this, that doesn't have the same budget as Monsters Vs. Aliens and Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs, goes unnoticed, despite the fact that it is much more interesting and fun than those crap films. Here, like the ot...( read more)her two, it is mostly just action, but whereas the other two think that the action is the joke, which causes everything to be boring and dumb, in this case, the action is taken seriously, and the jokes work fit in nicely. It's bright and fun, and while it's not Pixar, what is, it's better than any Dreamworks.
  • November 22, 2009
    I was never an Astro Boy fan, but this movie made me want to see more...just a smart little movie.
  • November 22, 2009
    i love father-son-robot-uncle connection here,..and the energy.. and the rise from dead, it's good.. but it could've been better if they add more comedy.
  • November 21, 2009
    simply put...a robot with a heart.
  • November 20, 2009
    I remember our childhood days with my elder brother...this is one of his favorite anime...It kind of differ from the anime series but the essence is still there...
  • November 19, 2009
    Visually, its Pixar-lite. But in the fun stakes, it surprisingly delivers. The evils of technology message is a little forced, but its bright and colourful and has enough smarts to say engaging for its short running time. Definatly a pleasant treat.
  • November 17, 2009
    Its a good movie with the great value of life....even it doesnot happen in reality
  • November 16, 2009
    Ok so I am biased because I am obsessed by the image of Astro Boy! lol. I enjoyed this for the most part and Iit was a very "young" movie for sure. Kids should love it and I thought it looked great and Astro Boy himself was really cute and his voice was great (Freddie Highmore...( read more) with a decent American accent). It did lack the interesting Japanese storylines but I enjoyed the charachters for the most part especially the kids on earth that because Astro's friend. A cute movie I could watch over again. Nicely done. :)
