We saw this weeks ago and I just forgot to write about it. I went in only because Crystal wanted to, I thought it would just be a stupid waste of time with maybe a couple good action sequences. Boy was I wrong. It was a solid movie, with LOTS of AWESOME action sequences. My fave would be the one toward the beginning with the Japanese looking robot (I forget his name), but every single one was great. The father/son story was one we’ve seen many times before but it worked anyway. The relationship between the boy and Atom was good too, it has a very Speilbergian feel to it, this could have been called “A Boy and His Robot”. The boxing story is straight up Rocky, and it works juuuuust fine. This was one of the biggest surprises of the year for me.
