Amazon.com 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 Didn't Know We Had A Pool! November 20, 2009 C. Tolley (hampton, tn United States) What a wonderful movie. I really didn't know quite what to make of the previews, I mean, very little dialogue to be heard, and the main leads were robots. After seeing the film, I love it. The lack of dialogue is actually a bonus, as you focus on the mannerisms and actions, however small, of the main characters, Wall-e and Eve. Visually the movie is stunning. The vistas of a barren Earth are amazing and desolate. Space is an incredible sight as well, with the best space travel scenes since Star Wars. The story has a superb point to it as well, as the eco-friendly message is very timely and to the point without being preachy. Wall-e's yearning for companionship is palpable, expressed in his repeated attempts to simply hold Eve's hand. Pixar continues to do the near-impossible, hold your attention and make you feel empathy and affection for robots and machinery. There hasn't been this sympathetic and lovable a robot character in a film since R2-D2 in Star Wars. The attention to detail is amazing. Everything is extremely well-thought out and designed. The growth and development of Pixar's art is incredible. They tell the best stories, with the absolute best in animation, on the most consistant basis. No-one can do it better, as their track record will attest. The ending is superb, with enough emotional sentimentality to catch you, without being too overdone. All in all, this is a fine film, one of the best films of the year. It certainly deserved the best animated feature oscar it received, and I think it deserved a best picture nomination as well, as it presented a timely message with enough humour and emotion to get the point across. Get this fine film and be carried away to another point in space with Wall-e.
Movie for the Whole Family November 19, 2009 Mari Anna Wahr (Gaylord, MI USA) I was rather dreading taking my kids to the movies, although I had heard that the movie was "cute". I also heard that there was little to no dialog, so that made my dread even worse. As I watched the movie, I couldn't believe it...Pixar has done it again, and even better than Toy Story. I laughed and cried along with my kids, and we all found something to love about this movie. It might sound corny, but this is a fantastic family movie that everyone will enjoy - and it covered science fiction to romance. I worry about adult themes or suggestive topics, even in children's movies, but I found nothing objectionable here. Even the littlest child will be entertained, and the adults will be as well. Good job, Pixar. We're getting the 3-disk edition for Christmas this year!
spanish audio November 15, 2009 Rene Alex (Caracas, Venezuela) weird thing the only thing this disc lacks is a 4 pages long spanish audio tack...
Romantic and Funny November 14, 2009 Roath Kanel (Phnom Penh, Cambodia) Sometime I like any film that is not talking and just view their performance. The first part (around 30 minute) of this film just show the daily life of WAll-E and the story begin when he meet Eve. He get through alot of obstacle to meet Eve.
LOVE IT November 3, 2009 Jojo (Canada) I just love the WALLE storyline and was very excited to be able to purchase the dvd at a fair price on Amazon. My family absolutely loves to watch it. It was delivered very quickly and very well packaged. I definitely recommend seeing this movie if you like those pixar animated movies.
