  • Summary: What if mankind had to leave Earth, and somebody forgot to turn the last robot off? After hundreds of lonely years of doing what he was built for, Wall-E discovers a new purpose in life when he meets a sleek search robot named EVE. EVE comes to realize that Wall-E has inadvertently stumbled upon the key to the planet’s future, and races back to space to report her findings to the humans. Meanwhile, WALL-E chases eve across the galaxy and sets into motion one of the most exciting and imaginative comedy adventures ever brought to the big screen.

    While I may argue with the little guy's taste in musicals, it's remarkable to see any film, in any genre, blend honest sentiment with genuine wit and a visual landscape unlike any other.

    You leave WALL-E with a feeling of the rarest kind: that you've just enjoyed a close encounter with an enduring classic.

    The visual design of Wall-E is arguably Pixar's best. Stanton, who wrote the script with Jim Reardon from a story he concocted with Peter Docter, creates two fantastically imaginative, breathtakingly lit worlds.

    A lot of people seem to share my opinion about how incredible this film was. I personally feel that this may be the best film I've ever seen. I don't see this as bashing any one group of people based on their weight (...and I love that one person commented on how this movie would offend "fat people". Don't you think that some people might find that label offensive?). It does raise some important questions about the amount of time that we spend in front of our computer/screens these days, the lack of time that we spend playing outdoors and interacting with others face to face, and the nature of the "corporate beasts" that rule the retail market. More importantly, it's got great music, amazing graphics, and is truly endearing and hilarious. Watch this movie. And then go for a walk with family or friends.… Expand

    Wall-E...meh. Its cute, its fun, its nifty to look at, but it is not a good movie. The story is dull, the dialog non-existent and at the end you feel bad for what has happened and where the people have ended up. The opening cartoon is GREAT!!! Magician and Rabbit!!! Amazing! But Wall-E, just not clever. Rent it on DVD, but as for a Pixar film, not even close to their best. Sorry.… Expand

    Nowhere near deserving of the high praise that it seems to be receiving. This movie has WAAAaaaayyy too much preaching - love the environment, say no to laziness, get exercise, say no to bigbox stores, etc.. the list goes on... and on... and on... I wouldn't want my kids watching this movie and learning that obsession = love. If you ask me, Wall-E is a little desperate.… Expand
