Astro Boy - Now Playing - NO SPOILERS PLEASE!!
« on: October 28, 2009, 06:50:06 pm »
OK all,  who has seen Astro Boy?  What did you think?  I went and saw it today and I really enjoyed it!  I am not going to post any spoilers,  :-X  but I will say that it had a bit of an Americanized feel to it.  It was also a little hard to get used to the definite English accent that Toby/Astro (Freddie Highmore) had.  I also felt that Donald Sutherland was a little soft spoken for the evil villain General Stone.  I loved the one liners and visual gags that littered the script, and I enjoyed watching the show.  The pacing was pretty good.  Maybe a bit slow at first, but most movies are.  All in all I enjoyed it a lot more than Transformers.  ::)  I haven't seen DragonBall or SpeedRacer,  :-\  so I can't compare to either one.  It is worth the price of admission.  Go see it!   ;D

I wonder if David Warner had a chance at Sutherland's role. He has a wonderful evil voice. Even when he is playing a good guy.
Have Fun
