One of the best animated films ever made. I am a 22 year old male, and this will never get old for me. It is an amazing story that takes place in an amazing time.

Set in the 1950's, the Iron Giant has the best of that era packed in with it. The superstition, the naiveness, and the style.

The story is heart warming and heart breaking at the same time. It is a story that every writer wishes to tell, but at a simple form so that it can be told to children as well. It is a story on how a child can get past every difference in another person/object, where adults cannot.

I will watch this movie for years, and will pass it onto my children when the time comes. It is a movie that hopefully will stand throughout time, and still bring tears and joy onto the next generation.

If only they would still make movies like this..

I found this movie leaving a bad taste in my mouth... It started out as a typical 'Zach stoned out of his mind funny' type of thing, and turned into it trying to teach me something about mental illness, but doing it in the poorest way possible.

Also, just a side note, I think it is the first time I have ever seen Owen Wilson pick up a stoner role. That's just me. I found it weird watching him smoke up on the couch watching cartoons.

It was amusing for the first while, but it ended with a 'what the hell did I just watch' feeling.

They introduced mental illness into the story line, a reason for Zach being nuts, and they solved it basically by getting him to shave his beard off. Now, I understand that that shows a drastic change, but they didn't follow it with anything.. Just watch it, it'll make you mad as well.

Overall, not really worth the two hours unless you have nothing better to watch. Or if you absolutely love Zach (however you spell his last name) or Owen Wilson, and are dedicated to watching everything they put out.

I mean, don't get me wrong, it wasn't unwatchable, but it was so corny that I couldn't really help myself but laugh. The fight scenes were pretty pitiful, they replayed the same kick maybe about 10 times throughout, and the characters didn't build at all from where we met them. But what do you expect from a movie called Evil Feed? The jokes in it were very simple, but mixed with the bad acting and the obvious story line I did end up laughing a few times, but not at the jokes. It is a movie that you will just shake your head to, and be mildly amused if there is absolutely nothing else to watch. Being a Canadian, I do like to give Canadian films a fair try (filmed in Vancouver), so that was pretty much what lured me in. Don't watch this if you are looking for a thriller, horror movie or a fight movie. This is neither, but I don't think it really tried to be. Again, only watch if you have a lot of free time, or if you are high.
