Movie Reviews:

• John Chard: You are who you choose to be.

  It’s the 1950s and young Hogarth Hughes happens upon a visitor from space ….. in the form of a giant iron man.

  Delightful animation adaptation of Ted Hughes’ much beloved 1968 novel “The Iron Man”. Set during the period of time when Cold War and sci-fi paranoia was prevalent, The Iron Giant embraces these themes and stokes them with lessons of friendship, hatred, death and pertinent reminders of pacifism. Directed by Brad Bird and scripted by Tim McCanilies and Andy Brent Forrester, The Iron Giant is one of those rare animation animals that delights the kids as much as it does the watching adults. Though the actual giant himself, with all his dazzling weaponry, is the star attraction on show, it’s the iron colossus’ inner conflict that gives the film its heart. Aided by his friend, young Hogarth, good old iron decides he doesn’t want to be a big weapon, but the authorities, as is nearly always the way, just can’t let it be. The unflinching attitude that ran through many of the 50s sci-fi schlockers was one of being “because we don’t understand it, lets destroy it” is something that Ted Hughes and the film makers here capture perfectly. Sophisticated and intelligent in its approach and delivery, this is definitely one of the better animated film’s from the modern age. 9/10

  Voice work comes from Jennifer Anniston, Harry Connick Jr, Vin Diesel, James Gammon, Christopher McDonald, M. Emmet Walsh and Eli Marienthal.
