  Robot Boy
  
  This film reminded us of Artifical Intelligence, also towards films classics as pinnnochio. The boy just wants to be loved. Tugged at the heart strings.

  Astro Boy
  
  If you like the Astro Boy T.V. you will like this. Its a bit different and a bit of imagination has been used.

  Both my boys 5 and 3 liked this film but perhaps not as much as some of the classics like Ice Age and Madagascar.

  Boys loved it, as adore robots. They watched it several times. More for kids rather than a family film. They say 10/10
