...imaginary world. The gravity of grief carries Tenma's character through the story; the robot Toby's need to prove himself to his dad and himself turns him into a superior being, the best of both species. Ham Egg, the exploiter of children down on earth, is a little bit Fagin, a little bit Stromboli from the Disney Pinocchio, and a whole lot rotten; but, thanks to Lane's vocalizing, he has enough vaudeville swank and showmanship to make him an irresistible cartoon villain.

All this against...
...acting skills are not as up to par, though they do go well with any awkward young character to play. In Adventureland, his most recent movie, which he headlined, he blinks and stares at the girl he likes (and who likes him) as he haltingly confesses to getting a bit serious on a date with someone else last week...
