Rating 4

If you're after a feelgood boost for February, then this is the ticket to buy.

The robot with a heart

Astro Boy

Rating 3

It won't stick in the memory like, say, a 'Monsters, Inc' or 'Lilo and Stitch', but 'Astro Boy' is a fairly quick 90 minutes.

Misadventures galore

Youth in Revolt

Rating 3
