He discovers that a mysterious robot from outer space has landed on earth and they became friends. The government became aware of the giant, and their agents wanted to destroy it... 86 minutes, All ages. Family movie, Kiddie movie.

The Moviesite Fan Club comments

Ian Douglas: Basically a kiddies version of King Kong. The animation is more comic-book than what we are used to from the likes of Disney. The kiddies should enjoy it. John Harrison (22): This is a truly brilliant animated feature. Ian, to say that your point of view is misguided would be an understatement.
