Product Description:
The highly acclaimed director of Finding Nemo and the creative storytellers behind Cars and Ratatouille transport you to a galaxy not so far away for a new cosmic comedy adventure about a determined robot named Wall-E. After hundreds of lonely years of doing what he was built for, the curious and lovable Wall-E discovers a new purpose in life when he meets a sleek search robot named Eve. Join them and a hilarious cast of characters on a fantastic journey across the universe. Transport yourself to a fascinating new world with Disney-Pixar's latest adventure, now even more astonishing on DVD and loaded with bonus features, including the exclusive animated short film Burn-E. Wall-E is a film your family will want to enjoy over and over again.

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.

I like Pixar. I think they consistently make good movies -- good in terms of narration, character building, and animation. The Incredibles is one of my favorite movies, and I thoroughly enjoyed Finding Nemo and Toy Story 2. I wanted to like Wall-E and I waited to be blown away.
Now even I think that the Pixar hype has gone to a silly level. With Wall-E, I can see that the hype appears to be going to Pixar's head -- which any creative mind can tell you is a death warrant. It's not a death ... Read More

This is a true Disney love story; particulary during those first 40 minutes without the dialouge.
Just look at WALL-E's eyes, watch his every move; who could be more in love than a little robot who continually gets struck by lightening in order to protect the love of his life, a little guy who ties Christmas lights around her and takes her off to see a sunset?
I think this is why so many adults enjoyed this film (I am 50 years old, I immediatly recognized the music from "Hello Dolly") ... Read More

This freaktastically over-rated film had middle aged movie critics tripping all over themselves adding it to their "best of 2008" lists. It's well done; and the first largely silent half-hour is animation art at its best. But maybe viewers who don't like sugar highs will wonder what all the fuss is about.
I wonder.
The sentimental "robots in love" story and the sappy conclusion made me want to evoke the spirit of Dorothy Parker, who supposedly once declared that "Winnie the ... Read More

Deservingly a classic, for its vision, its artfulness and its clever storytelling. Embrace this movie and let it take you into a dreamlike world where a mystery unravels, a love story blossoms, and just like the pudgy people are starting to notice - there's a whole bunch of stuff happening if you just stop and take a look. Enjoy the movie.

I first loaned this movie to my brother who loved it; when I finally started watching it, I knew it was about love and the robot who found it. Watching deeper in the movie one realizes why and how obesity has become such a major problem. The lazier people get in their own lives (witness how all of the "supplemental" foods that they are now catering to children is to drink everything, rather that eat. This is very much as message on the throwaway society -- if you don't care about yourself, why would ... Read More
