Danny Bobcat's 'Gizmos and Gadgets: Heroes of Rivet Town' constructs an ornate tapestry of family and loyalty within its cog-filled steampunk canvas. Ed O'Grille's earnest portrayal of Leo Copperwheel imbues the narrative with a palpable zest for innovation, while Sushi Spacek lends her voice to bring the charming GearGuardian to audible life. Despite its mechanized heart, the film often grinds gears narratively, juggling a surplus of themes that occasionally slip through the cracks of its ambitious storytelling. Nevertheless, it is Robin Heron's performance as Marla Kogsteem that perhaps offers the most cogent reminder of the tale's moral compass – that unity prevails in the face of deception. In 'Gizmos and Gadgets: Heroes of Rivet Town,' the filmmakers aim to solder whimsy with wisdom, and while not entirely seamless, the endeavor offers an admirable, if not entirely polished, family-friendly film experience.
