Astro Boy (Review)

What I knew going in:
Nick Cage stars in a kids film based on the Japanese star of comic books and movies in an American take on the old classic.

Hype:
Meh.  Like all kids films, could be good, could be bad, could scare my niece.

Opening Thoughts:
I really like the attention to detail all of the characters and objects have in this flick.  They've done a great job in setting a new graphical standard for 3D animated kids films.

Bottom Line:
Its fun, its kid friendly, and um...  yeah.  Its exactly what you expect from a kids movie, and there's nothing there to entertain the adults.  Its good background noise in a sea of Meh.
