This movie makes me want to hit people. I find it incredibly condescending.

Then I guess I have no soul, again, I found it condescending and calculated.

... it's a movie about a father and his son in a concentration camp. How can you NOT find that sad?

I mean.. EVERY movie's job is to manipulate the viewer in some form..

Thought it was mediocre.

Animation wise, My Neighbor Tortoro still does it for me.

Wall-E made me sad, and I actually felt my tear-ducts slowly filling at the end of the Simpson's Movie. Animation gets me...

I didn't cry, but my eyes did get watery at the end of Return of the King when the Hobbits bowed to Aragorn and he replied. "You bow to no man" and then everyone bowed to them. Boy that got me the first time.

This and Tortoro ran together on a double-bill when first released in Japan.
