A beautifully animated sci-fi adventure with heart, humor, and a timeless message, this modern classic tells the story of an unlikely friendship between a young boy and a mysterious giant robot. Directed by Brad Bird, it blends 1950s Cold War paranoia with deep emotional storytelling, culminating in one of the most moving endings in animation history. Though under-appreciated at its release, it has since become a beloved favorite for all ages.
