Review of Astro Boy (2009) by Tophe R — 18 May 2010
Astro Boy is a very classic anime and I used to watch it back in the day, does this one compare? The answer is no. I mean I used to watch this anime series like crazy but I mean they could have done some references from the older anime. And I did not like the story that much and it just wasn't as good as the anime series forsay.
Characters: I can't believe Nicolas Cage is in this movie and how werid I imagined him as the scientist I mean really, in my opioion they could have gotten someone else. Bur what ever the voice actors other than that were pretty good. The character design was awesome they got him in the original suit sortof, I mean sure it wasn't like the older days but I guess they wanted to mix it up. Other than that the characters had some unique looks.
Animation: the animation was very nice. From the seneic views of the grass to metro city, it all just came along nicely. But I still don't appricate the look of astro boy from the original.
Overall: This movie is good but maybe they should have done some metioning of the original series. Astroboy looks nothing like the original which is very dumb. And the story is ok and typical.
