Astro Boy

Yay, yay, yay!
I watched Astro Boy tonight.
And it's me, having 6 years old all over again.
Or more, or less, but definitely NOT 25.


Even if the 25 years old part of me apreciate the fact that Freddie Highmore, Kristen Bell and the cute Madeline Caroll - whom I did not know until today - are all embodying characters.

Wish I could see it in original version and not in French.

But hey, when you live in a small city in the middle of France, you don't choose, do you?

Timothy Harris & David Bowers are NO Osamu Tezuka.

And they are no Hayayo Miyazaki either even though they did create beautiful scenery..

 

Nevermind, I had a good time.
Who cares if I get the giggles at this childish line:  "What? I got machine guns... in my butt?"
And who cares if the whole thing is a bit too Americanized and a bit too manichaean?
Who cares, really?
I'm 6 years old, dammit!
