WALL-E is an undeniably cute Pixar movie with a surprising message. It brings a new twist to the computer animated genre by bringing film back years ago, all the way back to the silent age. It is easily one of the best of the year so far (but we'll see after Australia, Doubt, Frost/Nixon, and Revolutionary Road).
WALL-E is the very sweet story of a robot named WALL-E. He lives all by himself on Earth crushing trash into cubes. He also watches Hello Dolly! and finds new uses for laptops. One day, a robot named EVE lands on Earth looking for the last living plant there and WALL-E falls in love. The two (and the viewer) are whisked away into a world stretching across space where the only humans surviving are lazy people who no longer walk.
WALL-E includes barely any dialogue. Most of the dialogue is uttered by the two robots and the only words are "WALL-E" and "EVE". It's great, but not something that many people will enjoy. Many people can't take a silent film because they say it's boring. Hopefully, this will change that.
This movie is surprisingly an environmental message movie. It continues to amaze me that Pixar decided to make a message movie. A great idea! They should continue to do this because hopefully it will raise awareness.
WALL-E is a journey that is perfect for families. It, like all other Pixar movies, will take you into a new, beautiful world you've never seen before. This may will take quite a few awards in award season, no doubt, yet, of course, it should but won't win best picture. Too bad.
