The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - Liam Lacey

Mixing Chaplinesque delicacy with the architectural grandeur of a Stanley Kubrick film, director Andrew Stanton recycles film history and makes something fresh and accessible from it without pandering to a young audience. Read full review

New York Magazine (Vulture) - David Edelstein

The new Pixar picture Wall-E is one for the ages, a masterpiece to be savored before or after the end of the world. Read full review

Wall Street Journal - Joe Morgenstern

The first half hour of WALL-E is essentially wordless, and left me speechless. This magnificent animated feature from Pixar starts on such a high plane of aspiration, and achievement, that you wonder whether the wonder can be sustained. But yes, it can. Read full review

Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan

Daring and traditional, groundbreaking and familiar, apocalyptic and sentimental, Wall-E gains strength from embracing contradictions that would destroy other films. Read full review

NPR - Bob Mondello

The first hour of Wall-E is a crazily inventive, deliriously engaging and almost wordless silent comedy of the sort that Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton used to make. Read full review

ReelViews - James Berardinelli

Put simply, WALL-E is about as charming as movies get. Read full review

Salon - Stephanie Zacharek

The picture feels weirdly, and disappointingly, disjointed, something that starts out as poetry and ends as product. Read full review

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

I went to the cinema not knowing anything about this film, it seemed to me that WALL-E was not advertised as heavily as some of Pixar's previous films such as Ratatouille, which I thoroughly enjoyed. But I must say, I personally think this is Pixar's best. WALL-E was engaging and entertaining from start to finish. Comedy is mostly subtle and well-thought out, which I think is an huge improvement on Finding Nemo. WALL-E might not be as children friendly as some of Pixar's previous, but I actually prefer it that way and I think a much broader audience can enjoy the film. WALL-E is easily one of my favourite animated films of all time. If you haven't seen it yet, don't be put off by supposedly "kiddy" visuals or storyline: WALL-E is a masterpiece for everyone to enjoy. Go see it now! 10/10… Expand

Another amazing film from PIxar. Although it has already been said, the first 30-40 minutes of the film are simply amazing. The film is far more touching than any other love story I've seen in recent times.

Wall-E is a near masterpiece for the animation genre with a great plot and special effects while having that rare emotional depth for the icing on the cake.

This movie was good but not all that great. It definately deserved to be recognized. But what I really really don't get is why does pixar always get the highest ratings when there only kids movie. Probably because there just plain entertaining and there's no controversie to them. This movie was good but not all that great. It definately deserved to be recognized.

The fart noises and the sexually suggested messages wasn't my thing. Who are you catering to: little kids or socially retarded adults?
