muito bom
My Movie Rating:I SO love this movie! :) I've always seen it as a unique telling of the Pinnochio story! and A rose by any other name is still a rose! A boy by any other design is STILL a boy! the ending theme song is wonderful, "Somewhere I Belong" by Teddy Pendergrass. I think the editing could've been better, other than that it's a great family movie! this movie is difficult to find on DVD, it was made before DVD's were main stream, but it can be found on VHS, Library's and Thrift stores have them from time to time.
A typical all-American movie in which Barret Oliver is very good in his part as the boy robot, Daryl. Not only his acting but the fact Barret has the looks of an intelligent boy adds much to the part. The plot is far fetched to say the least but, overlooking that, the film has much of interest in it.
One might wonder why Daryl, who is a robot after all, has to be dressed when he's on the slab in the science laboratory. Also, thank heavens they didn't cast Danny Corkill in the lead who had a tendency to mumble his lines sometimes.
