ASTRO BOY: Tobio (Freddie Highmore) tests his newly discovered flying abilities in David Bowers' Astro Boy.
GENRE: CGI sci-fi adventure
THE PITCH: When Dr. Tenma’s (Nicolas Cage) son Tobio (Freddie Highmore) meets an unfortunate end, the grief-stricken scientist creates a robotic boy in his son’s image powered by an experimental power source — blue-core energy.

This will be good for 7, 8 years old children not for adults. I am not interest about Astro Boy (2009) at all. Actually my friend told me like this. But I really like this movie and waiting to watch it.
