i do not know who say they think this be a rip off of pinnochio but it isn not and never be . i do not know why people insist on take movie and try to find other movie they rip off . for me a a kid it be one of my favorite and every time my 11 year old grandson come over we watch one of the old b and w episode i have on dvd . i take him to the theatre to see this just me and him and we be both like a couple of kid . ( i be 55 ) i be not go to spoil it for anyone that have not see it but i believe it be a great family movie and or at least one you can let your child watch without supervision . i enjoy it a lot . my grandson look forward to our weekly viewing now with his grandpa . a a long time astroboy fan i wish we could figure out if it be one word or two . all my old stuff the astroboy run together . anyway i believe this be a fun entertain movie and not for all and but give it a try for your kid and grandkids . i think they will enjoy it .
