Product Description
Studio: Buena Vista Home Video Release Date: 11/18/2008 Rating: G
Pixar genius reigns in this funny romantic comedy, which stars a robot who says absolutely nothing for a full 25 minutes yet somehow completely transfixes and endears himself to the audience within the first few minutes of the film. As the last robot left on earth, Wall-E (voiced by Ben Burtt) is one small robot--with a big, big heart--who holds the future of earth and mankind squarely in the palm of his metal hand. He's outlasted all the "Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class" robots that were assigned some 700 years ago to clean up the environmental mess that man made of earth while man vacationed aboard the luxury spaceship Axiom. Wall-E has dutifully gone about his job compacting trash, the extreme solitude broken only by his pet cockroach, but he's developed some oddly human habits and ideas. When the Axiom sends its regularly scheduled robotic EVE probe (Elissa Knight) to earth, Wall-E is instantly smitten and proceeds to try to impress EVE with his collection of human memorabilia. EVE's directive compels her to bring Wall-E's newly collected plant sprout to the captain of the Axiom and Wall-E follows in hot pursuit. Suddenly, the human world is turned upside down and the Captain (Jeff Garlin) joins forces with Wall-E and a cast of other misfit robots to lead the now lethargic people back home to earth. Wall-E is a great family film with the most impressive aspect being the depth of emotion conveyed by a simple robot--a machine typically considered devoid of emotion, but made so absolutely touching by the magic of Pixar animation. Also well-worth admiring are the sweeping views from space, the creative yet disturbing vision of what strange luxuries a future space vacation might offer, and the innovative use of trash in a future cityscape. Underneath the slapstick comedy and touching love story is a poignant message about the folly of human greed and its potential effects on earth and the entire human race. Wall-E is preceded in theaters by the comical short Presto in which a magician's rabbit, unfed one too many times takes his revenge against the egotistical magician.

Plot Deja Vu November 22, 2008

I loved the movie, but I've seen the story before in Idiocracy with Luke Wilson.
In Wall-E, in the future, the earth is covered with trash, all living plants are gone, BUY N' LARGE is the big-box store that contributed to the problem, humans reverted to obese blobs on a huge space ship with every craving served by robots. Wall-E was the last remaining trash compactor.
In Idiocracy. in the future, the earth is covered with trash, all living plants are gone, COSTCO is the big-box store that contributed to the problem, humans reverted to urban slang drinking man-made energy drinks. Luke Wilson is the victim of a military time-machine experiment gone wrong.
Maybe there is a limit to Science Fiction plots.
 BEST PIXAR MOVIE EVER!!! November 22, 2008

I never thought the day would come that another Pixar movie would come along and surpass Toy Story...but Wall-E does it! This is a total masterpiece of film making. From the breathtaking CGI to the amazing story, this movie is by far and away the BEST Pixar has to offer. The story is just so moving that I get chills every time I watch it!
The message is clearly one of warning to humans about wasting our precious natural resources, recycling and global warming but that message is SO important for our children to hear. I for one will make sure my daughter understands the true meaning of this film yet also just enjoys it for the pure innocence and love that spills from it.
This is the BEST FILM OF 2008...if you don't add this to your collection then you are not human or truly "alive". THANK YOU PIXAR!!!!!!
Great Story and a Whole Lotta' Fun! November 22, 2008

Wall-E lives up to the hype I heard about it. The storyline is excellent. This little, yet extremely durable, robot really has some character about him. When a new robot lands on the earth, Wall-E finds someone to share his lonely world...Lucky for Wall-E it was a female robot. Lucky for the viewers too, I guess. The two end up on a wild adventure out in space with some out of shape humans and robots in need of repair.
The comedy in Wall-E is great fun and a joy to watch unfold on the screen. Pixar almost always seems to deliver a great product. Wall-E is no exception. Buy this movie, pop some popcorn, and sit back and enjoy a work of art!
May God bless!
See ya next review!
