Movie Review: Steamboy (2004)

Man, I wanted to like this. On the plus side, the animation is jaw-dropping, really stunning. On the negative side, is pretty much everything else. The plot is made up of a lot of ideas, most of them stale, but that doesn’t stop the fairly badly conceived characters from talking and talking and talking and talking about them as if they are profound. Hey everyone, did you hear that governments can be corrupt and that war is bad? Who knew?
