DVD Reviews of The Iron Giant (Special Edition)
DVD Review: The perfect family movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of those movies that I initially watched with a sceptical eye...but that didin't last long. This is one of the coolest movies ever made. My kids have watched it since they were really little and still love it. I've watched it since the kids were really little, and still love it! This movie is very funny and has just enough moral message to make it worthwhile....I know I should critique the flick and give all the reasons you should watch this DVD...but nothing I could say would tell you nearly as much as just watching it. It's just really, really good. We wore out our video and have just replaced it with the DVD...it's a classic and you should just take the plunge and buy it. You won't regret it.DVD Review: The Iron Giant (Special Edition)
Summary: 5 Stars
Wonderful kids movie with enough of a story line or plot to make an adult not mind watching it 100 times. This has been a staple in my household since around 2000. Both of my sons began watching it at around 3 years of age and enjoy it immensely. I recommend it.DVD Review: Fun movie, but not memorable.
Summary: 3 Stars
I enjoyed this movie a lot when I first saw it, but there wasn't anything spectacular in it, and it was very generic. I don't remember a single thing about it, really. There are better animated movies, but this one isn't horrible. I still say you should watch it.DVD Review: Iron giant

Summary: 5 Stars
Both my 15 year old step daughter and my 3 year old son love this movie. Good message and beautifully done.
Description of The Iron Giant (Special Edition)
A young boy rescues a huge robot which has rocketed to earth from space - and tries to protect the genial giant from a nosey government agent and the military. A captivating animated feature that's part metal, part magic and all heart.This gentle reworking of Ted Hughes's 1968 novella was the unseen gem of 1999. Hogarth, a young boy who lives in the Maine woods during the cold war, befriends a giant robot. As with E.T., the iron giant is a misunderstood outsider who becomes a child's best friend, and Hogarth does his best to hide the massive figure from his mom (voiced by Jennifer Aniston) and the local scrap-yard beatnik (Harry Connick Jr.). Soon the suspicions of neighbors and a government agent (Christopher McDonald) spell trouble.
With no songs, no sidekicks, and no cheap ending, The Iron Giant is a refreshing change-- like an off-Broadway production compared to the glitz of Disney's annual animated extravaganzas. Director Brad Bird may have Family Dog and The Simpsons to his credit, but this film doesn't have that brand of scatological humor. As with the best family entertainments, there are gags that adults will howl at while the kids are watching something else (see Bird's interpretation of cold war propaganda). And the star is one cool piece of animated magic. Voiced by Vin Diesel (Saving Private Ryan's hulking Private Caparzo) and filled with more gadgets than a Swiss army knife, the giant is a grand thing to behold. And like another famous cinema tin man, our hero--and the movie--has heart. Superb entertainment for ages 5 and up. --Doug Thomas
