I have read some of Tezuka's manga and I've seen some of the various Astro Boy anime, and even with those in mind, I thought this movie was excellent. I think Imagi Studios did a great job of adapting a character from the 1950's-1960's for the 21st century. The film's animation was stunning, the voice actors turned in great performances, and the story was touching, funny and really exciting in spots. "Soulless"? Man, if you didn't tear up in some parts of this film, then you're more of a robot than Astro! I cared a LOT. You must have checked your heart at the door, dude. This movie gets a 10/10 from me.
