Bringing to life the much-loved story by British poet Ted Hughes, The Iron Giant takes place in a quiet American town in the 1960s. The tale begins when a young boy named Hogarth follows a trail of huge footprints leading from his house into the woods - and finds an iron giant from space! Instantly the two form a firm friendship, and when the army try and destroy this enormous visitor, Hogarth does everything he can to protect his giant pal. Beautifully animated, this is a film with lots of wit and a huge amount of heart.

    I liked the giant because he was big and he steped over things. He was very nice but if he went mad he would go nasty and turn into something else. He would turn his self to nasty. It is a bit said aswel but his things come back together a red light flashes on the top of his head and his arms and body and the legs and stuff.

    At first I didn't like this film because I did not understand it. But when I saw it in filmclub I thoroughly enjoyed it. But it was sad when you discover the iron giant was really an evil fighting machine. It was a sensational family film,exellant.
