The Iron Giant :: rogerebert.com :: Reviews

That makes the giant his friend forever, and now all Hogarth has to do is keep the robot a secret from his mom and the federal government."The Iron Giant" is still another example of the freedom that filmmakers find in animation: This would have been a $100 million live-action special-effects movie, but it was made for a fraction of that cost because the metal man is drawn, not constructed.
. . .
She says they make too much of a mess around the house, little dreaming what a 100-foot robot can get up to.
. . .
His voice is by Vin Diesel and sounds like it has been electronically lowered.

Disney has the traditional animation market locked up, but other studios seem willing to throw money at Disney musical look-alikes (like "The King and I") even though they might have a better chance moving in the opposite direction--toward real stories told straight.

Drinking, drugs, & smoking: Set in the late 1950s, a secretary smokes a cigarette at her desk; a government official smokes a pipe throughout.  A laxative is used to obstruct the progress of the movie’s villain, with predictably humorous results as he continually needs to find a bathroom (as subtly depicted, this plot line will probably go over the heads of younger children).
