Wall-E Review

We promised a review for Wall-E, so here it is!

It was amazing!

We've never been so intrigued by a movie with such little dialogue. The title character himself really only said two words: "whoa" and "Eva".

The film takes place hundreds of years from now. As a result of human activity, a trash-covered Earth is no longer a hospitable environment for humans. A series of robots are designed to recover Earth as the humans take a 5-year space cruise. However, several hundreds of years later, only one robot remains and the humans have not returned. That robot is Wall-E and he has developed a personality.

So, when a spaceship lands and sends out another high-tech robot, EVE, Wall-E falls in love.

The rest of the film follows Wall-E and EVE's adventures on the space cruise ship and their attempts to bring humans back to Earth.

Wall-E is Pixar's ninth film, and like its eight predecessors, it amazes the audiences both in its sophisticated animation and ability to tell a story. The audience finds themselves captivated by the heart of a non-living robot, just like they had done with toys, bugs, monsters, fish, and cars in Pixar's previous films. But Wall-E is different. The character is truly innocent. He is timid, yet outgoing. He knows what he wants, but he also knows what is right. That is what separates Wall-E from Woody and Nemo.

The movie is virtually too good for words to describe. (Could that be why there were hardly any words in the movie itself?). For those of you who haven't seen it, we strongly advice you to do so!

And, although the film did not come packaged with a High School Musical 3: Senior Year trailer like we had hoped, there was a comical and cute Pixar animated short before the film began. "Presto" is about a magician, a hungry rabbit, and a carrot. That's all we'll say about that!
