"The Iron Giant" Review

    Childhood can be a strong influence. If something was a major part of our childhood, it's hard to say anything bad about it. The more we like it, the hard it is to remember it's flaws. Nostalgia is a powerful thing. Many of us love our childhood and reminisce about it by watching the films that we loved growing up. Sometimes we learn what we like back then, are just as good if not better now. Unfortunately, sometime we learn the movie's we loved were better left as they were: childhood memories. Among the movies I watched growing up The Iron Giant was one of my favorites. So, how does it hold up today? Pretty well, actually.
