Film: Tetsujin-28 aka Gigantor

Here is the trailer for the classic Japanese story about a boy and his robot - Gigantor. Looks like the same company that did Casshern... which was... as I suspected visually superb (though somewhat heavy handed in parts) but with a WEAK story and charecters. I had the same problem with the french film Immortel: Ad Vitam. Hell, even Ghost in the Shell 2 suffered from the same problems.

2004 has turned into a rather lackluster year in cinema. Most of the films I had been really excited about have been disapointments. With House of Flying Daggers and Kung FU Hustle on the way... there is still hope.

Anyway check 'em out for yourself. Here is the trailer.
