| − | |A movie based on the children's book of the same name by William Joyce, the film has a promotion of family values, as the very beginning of the film features the main character's father celebrating that he is to become a father, and doing everything he can to bring his son into the world alongside his wife, and his family was encouraging of their son to be the best he can be. It also promotes the concept of the American Dream as well as capitalism, as the main protagonist dreams of becoming an inventor like Bigweld (who is depicted in a similar manner to Walt Disney) and also left to try and get his family to have a greater opportunity. It also manages to condemn corporate corruption without advocating for more government control or demonizing Capitalism, as while the new management of Bigweld industries was shown to be extensively corrupt and cynical, Bigweld himself, as well as the company that it originally stood for, was painted in a very positive light. | + | |A movie based on the children's book of the same name by William Joyce, the film has a promotion of family values, as the very beginning of the film features the main character's father celebrating that he is to become a father, and doing everything he can to bring his son into the world alongside his wife, and his family was encouraging of their son to be the best he can be.
