Astro Boy is not just derivative, but its main problem is that is still has a typical Japanese outdated outlook on themes that Hollywood productions do better in exploring. Coupled with a Pinocchio character that later becomes a Rambo that Astro Boy is not just derivative, but its main problem is that is still has a typical Japanese outdated outlook on themes that Hollywood productions do better in exploring. Coupled with a Pinocchio character that later becomes a Rambo that shoots missiles from his behind and feet, it is more ridiculous than any Hollywood animated films. The movie is also boring, overplays it sentiments and a complete turn-off to kids. My three kids were bored and could not relate to the character at all. Expand

Do Not Go with kids. Spoiler warning. Son dies in violent way in beginning. Then dad says, I will create new son as robot. The father then tells the robot son, I don't want you. This movie also attempts to be like many other cartoon Do Not Go with kids. Spoiler warning. Son dies in violent way in beginning. Then dad says, I will create new son as robot. The father then tells the robot son, I don't want you. This movie also attempts to be like many other cartoon pictures with adult humor. The problem is, it is not funny, at all. Not to mention, the voice over acting is just bad. Nicholas Cage, is not, not, not a voice over actor. Lets just say, do not go. Don't waste your money renting or buying. Expand

Here's the deal, if you are a die-hard fan of the original work by Osamu Tezuka, I would strongly advise you NOT to watch this movie. Although I can understand the appeal to young children and adults who have never seen the original works,Here's the deal, if you are a die-hard fan of the original work by Osamu Tezuka, I would strongly advise you NOT to watch this movie. Although I can understand the appeal to young children and adults who have never seen the original works, this is simply using the original characters, loosely basing it upon the original story, completely changing the behavior and characteristics of Astroboy and turning it into a new movie. If you are simply looking for a movie to share with your children, then go fro it. If you are a fan of Osamu Tezuka, and you want to watch this movie because of that, then don't watch it. Expand
