A new Classic. Pixar are going to have a hard time topping this; it is an absolute masterpiece, daring and endearing at the same time. Again, a new classic.

Utterly charming and fabulous. The best complete character introduction (in less than 10 minutes) and the best rendering of "love at first sight" I've ever seen in a movie. Totally won my heart.

It was a cute film but I felt it was trying to shove the environmental crap down our throats. I get it that we are fat pigs that pollute the planet. Alright already I'll- reuse,reduce and recycle. Although I admit it is on par for a pixar film.

I just finally got to see Wall-E tonight after hearing so much about it. I was not disappointed at all--not only did it live up to its rare reviews, but it exceeded them. A joy from start to finish. I plan to watch it again immediately.

I love the choice of music used it was really emotional. I managed to fall in love with the character of Wall-E and thought he was very cute! The film subtly has a lot more themes in it than realised at first and this is proof of it being a masterpiece. A great example for the show of love, loneliness, environmental issues and loyalty.

People are obsessed with the story, or what they call the irritating voices, or the fact that there isn't an enormous plot. All I can say is, anyone who was bored by this film or thought it was some leftist rant on pollution entirely missed the point. This film is all about feeling and emotion. It flows at parts like an opera, at others like one of the old Roadrunner/Coyote Chuck Jones shorts. In fairness, those who obsess over the film's social commentary are similarly short-sighted. Sociopolitical overtones aside, everything, from top to bottom, works in this film. Anyone who thinks "Finding Nemo" was great but can't stomach this movie should just go back and watch the second "Matrix" film; movies of actual substance just aren't for you. Expand

What Pixar, Stanton and his team have created is a heart-warming throwback to the core values of what we as humans should be embracing, purity and at the centre of that, love. Stanton has achieved that through a most unlikely but completely enchanting and loveable character in Wall-E. To watch him potter around a once rich and teeming landscape now reduced to a desolate wasteland by the greed and inaction of the human race, casually collecting up trinkets of a lost civilisation along the way and enjoying the 9 to 5 job for which he was created was nothing short of a delight. To watch him develop a sense of his duty to the human race was profound. No mention needs to be made of the films visual qualities - it is as expected. Stanton delivers also on the speed and pace of the movie. You are never left wanting. The movie opens with the unsettling imagery of the earth's landscape in complete disarray. It is familiar and yet disturbing all at once. Earth is a complete mess and has been so for 700 years previous, save for the extraordinary efforts of the little leading robot. You literally love Wall-E at first site and for the more jaded among us, grow to love him as the movie progresses. Wall-E is to modern cinema what Chaplin was to pantomime. This cannot be understated and the significance of Wall-E's onscreen presence, by and large, should have every audience member captivated. By and Large? Possibly an acronym for the films corporate villain, BnL? The addition of EVE served to provide the audience with the perfect foil for Wall-E's doting eccentrics and the perfect partner it seemed for Wall-E himself. A classic example of the lady and the tramp, a loveable charming lout, rough around the edges, trying to and succeeding in, gaining the affections of the upper class lady. The two fit perfectly despite coming from obviously different environmental backgrounds. The scenes involving EVE and Wall-E are pure cinematic genius. You find yourself asking if its possible to actually "love" a robot but in Wall-E it is actually possible. It is initially an alien notion but you find yourself warming to him when you gradually discover you indeed share many of the same affections and traits. His dance routine with the hubcap, the way he tried on the bra, keeping the box and throwing the diamond ring away and the way he grasped at his metallic appendages while watching the old VHS being notable examples. Scenes involving Wall-E's complete selflessness are tear jerking and you cant help but feel for the little guy when, having been rescued from deep space ejection, he crawls, mangled and critically damaged, to retrieve the plant that the future of the human race depends on. Handing it to EVE, he says "Dirrr...ect..ive" and at that moment the only "directive" in your subconscious is to burst out crying. Even more upsetting was the sad realisation that having been repaired and rebooted by EVE upon return to earth, Wall-E seemed never to be himself again, his memory apparently having been erased. An electronic kiss from EVE restores his memory and finally we, onscreen cast included, all breathe a sigh of relief. Without drawbacks as such to comment on, the only "drawback" I can see is that there are actually people out there who didnt love this film to bits. Those in this category need to ask themselves some very hard questions indeed! A+ Expand

I had the highest of expectations for this film, since Stanton had done Nemo.

All of the prior Pixar blockbusters have been structured around one or more main characters dealing with personal challenges and overcoming adversity with the help or resistance of other complex characters. The locations and details were the variations on the theme. The plots were complex, highly textured and detailed, and always had an abundance of the 'wow' factor. Ratatouille is the most spectacular example of Pixar's perfecting of paying attention to every detail. Now comes Wall-E which deviates from all these prior standards except for some of the starting animation, and regresses back to an earlier era of animation such as 2-dimensional when the Barcalounger scenes kick in. It also drops its successful formula of the brilliant ensemble pieces with compelling characters, to constructing a left-leaning political manifesto overlaid with a bland romance between a couple of droids who can do slapstick and vaudeville. Those raters giving this film a 10 have clearly not paid much attention to the detail of its predecessors, but are jumping on the political bandwagon which is admirable if you're attending An Inconvenient Truth. But it is completely out of Pixar character and a betrayal of the public's expectations to sneak an unamusing, pompous, boring political message into what should have been a true-to-form Pixar film. Those that rated Wall-E a 10 not only seem to agree in general with its political message, but they actually think this tripe belongs and FITS within a Pixar film. Rather, it destroyed the pacing and the film. These ratings and commentaries are reminiscent of positions taken during the recent election. Expand

Then he finds a pet cockroach and a pet plant and takes care of them as well, and finally, he meets the first other "real" character - EVE. The people at Pixar did a wonderful job making the robots look great and convey emotion, and the movie is a pretty good romance set in a pretty depressing future. I have to give it a perfect score because it is the pinnacle of movie-making and the best film of 2008. Its wonderful, touching, funny, heartwarming, and depressing, all in a rated G movie. Expand

It I only gave this a 10 because thats the highest grade this site would allow. a 10 score does not do this wonderful film justice. I had everything, it attempted something that you're not supposed to do with american animated films. It did not kneel down to the level of it's intended audiece, and actually challenged the audience, young and old, to think with the movie. It conveyed emotions superbly, by overcoming obstacles that would've made that task near impossible. No dialogue between the main protagonists, and they lack complete faces save for eyes. The film was a rollercoaster of emotions, seeing Wall-E going through life in his lonesome was sad and borderline depressing, the film was hilarious, the courtship was innocent and touching, and in the end, it was happy and hopeful. It's a simple love story told in the most complex way. Yes, there was a subplot which is a biting commentary on excessive consumerism-which I admit am guilty of myself-and I was not offended by it at all, I didn't find it preachy and heavy handed. It was the love story that carried the film and it did so magnificently. An excellent film top to bottom, a film that will truly withstand the test of time. Expand

Prior to watching this film, i was told by a number of people the level of expertise this film had, so i went into this film seeing it as a masterpiece and i wasn't wrong.. The level of detail is quite amazing, and most probably the best looking animated film to date. The movie itself started off very interesting leading you through the daily life of the character "wall e", his daily routines and slowly begins to unfold to a story about humanity returning to earth. The opening of the movie got me hooked right into the movie and i was enjoy every second of it. As the movie progresses, the level of style is dramatically changed as we are taken on a journey with wall e to an aircraft that holds current humanity. the style humanity was conveyed was very interesting as are over weight and fly around all day living an un-natural world. As film progressed, i couldn't help to feel a different approach towards the film as a whole, the beginning was amazing... but then it began to stretch into the old routine of posting the story to the viewers, and ended up turning into a tory about the relation ship between EVE and WALL E as well as to relocate humanity on earth. As a whole i did enjoy this movie, especially the into scenes but as the movie progressed, it began to die down. Thank god the produces didnt make the film any longer than it already is as it might of gotten boring at some parts. If you havnt seen this movie, i highly recommend you go rent it or buy it on dvd, or blue ray for the ultimate experience!!! Expand

Don't know what age group this was aimed at. Too grim and long for children; too simplistic and boring for adults. Cute visual effects, but essentially propagandistic poppycock!

You'd think robot voice-overs would get annoying, but they are actually done wonderfully in a cute sort of way. I didn't think this movie was the greatest animation ever made, but I score it highly for its uniqueness, the development of the relationship between two unconventional stars [Wall-E & Eva], and the anticipation of which way the storyline was headed [built up a little suspense/curiosity]. I was kind of surprised that it felt like more of an adult oriented animation in that the beginning of the film was shot with little-to-no dialogue [hold a young kids attention span?], but rather watching Wall-E go about doing his thing and introducing himself to the audience. Kind of gutsy, but I suppose the kids love it nonetheless. Expand

This is a film that has wide I loved Wall-E for its social commentary, technical genius, and offer of hope. I'm usually resistant to animated films but had to give this one a chance because it was SO well received by critics I trust. This is a film that has wide appeal for audiences of all ages and cultures because it is so filled with humanity. Adults in Western society will be the most disturbed by its chilling portrayal of a trashed Earth that is uninhabitable by living organisms. Reminiscent of the apocalyptic foreboding in films depicting the aftermath of nuclear war, Wall-E is a cautionary tale for our time. Humans have degenerated into non-ambulatory appendages of a virtual world in which they have no connection with each other or with their immediate physical surroundings. Wall-E is lonely and the arrival of Eve on Earth to scout for life forms transforms him and his desolate existance. This film offers hope at the same time it reminds us of what we stand to lose should we continue to self-destruct. The film is marvelously executed with captivating and beautiful imagry. I absolutely loved it - Go Pixar! Expand

This movie had neither. Previous Pixar films had three-dimensional, well-rounded characters like Woody and Buzz, but I just didn't get that from these robots. Of course the writers made their job more difficult by not using any dialog. As for chemistry, for WALL-E they gave absolutely no reason for falling in love other than "love-at-first-sight," despite the fact that his love interest was an emotionless (and in the beginning sex-neutral) probe interested only in carrying out its mission, and blowing everything else up. The writers also gave EVE very little reason to come around to WALL-E. Finally, we have the whole problem of accepting a love affair between two machines. If this movie was presented solely as a fantasy (like most of Pixar's movies) than we can accept human emotions from anything. In a fantasy its fine if a toaster falls in love with a rock (or a toy befriends a toy). But I felt this movie presented itself more as science fiction. In that context, you want your robots to make sense. If EVE and WALL-E were suppose to be highly complex robots with brains approaching those of humans (e.g. in I, Robot) than maybe we can accept some emotion from them. But one was a trash compactor, and the other a probe. Why is a trash compactor scared? lonely? happy? It doesn't make sense. Sure the animation was brilliant, but if I couldn't buy into the love story aspect of this film, everything else falls flat. Expand

Heatwarming and touching than most recent live action movies in recent memory. As a matter of fact, it's as touching a love story in the history of cinema, and that's saying something since its ANIMATED ROBOTS. Those who say it didn't touch them are in all likelihood just a bunch of Disney haters that went in with the sole purpose of nitpicking the movie to death (Newsflash to these people: you can pretty much nitpick any movie in film history and find flaws if you're that kind of moviegoer). I for one am not the biggest Disney Fan, but I manage to set that aside and evaluate films as it is, and this film is simply magnificent! If you open up as you watch this movie, it will captivate you. If you sit there and be a hard ass and stuff, then you'll leave cold and that is more of a testament to YOU rather than the film. This film is a classic that will be remembered and cherished forever. Expand

Like soooo many Hollywood movies, the characters' charm gets lost in multiple, frenetic chase scenes. Two-thirds of the way through, I forget who is chasing whom to find what where and get away to what.....and more, I don't care because no one has engaged each other as characters for quite a while. And while it sounds strange to say this about an animated film, the chemistry between the leads was missing. What did sweet WALL-e see in HER? The first 40 minutes would make a brilliant, strangely touching and surreal short. The rest was mostly a yawn. Toy Story 2 and Finding Nemo are much more humane and worth keeping. Expand

This gave us lots of time to prepare him and get him excited at the prospect, hoping he wouldn't wail the moment the lights went down. He loved this movie so much; he didn't make a single noise throughout other than asking for more popcorn, and he cried for a good 10 minutes after the last credit rolled as he simply didn't want to leave. The same happened the day after when we took him to see it again! I can see why some people say it's not really aimed at kids, but I think it's ALSO aimed at kids. There are some harsh warnings on our treatment of the planet but that's a by-product of an excellent story and script. I don't see it as being the center piece of the movie, it just allows the other story to be told. The visuals of the movie were incredible, more so when the characters were on earth due to the excellent rolling backgrounds. I've never known so much emotion could be portrayed from a pair of eyes, or different pronunciations of each character's name. My son loved it, my wife and I loved it and I'll be pre-ordering the DVD. Expand
