Amazon.co.uk Review
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. --Tami Horiuchi, Amazon.com

Synopsis
What if mankind had to leave Earth, and somebody forgot to turn off the last robot? This is the premise behind Wall-E, the latest comedy adventure from the inventive storytellers and technical geniuses at Pixar Animation Studios (The Incredibles, Cars, Ratatouille). The story, told by Academy Award®-winning writer-director Andrew Stanton (Finding Nemo), concerns a determined robot named WALL-E, left behind to clean up the planet after the last humans have left.

After hundreds of lonely years of doing what he was built for, WALL-E (short for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) has developed his very own personality. He discovers a new purpose in life (besides collecting knick-knacks) when he encounters--and becomes enamoured with--a sleek search robot named EVE. WALL-E and EVE travel across the galaxy and set into motion one of the most exciting and imaginative comedy adventures ever brought to the big screen. Joining WALL-E on his fantastic journey across a universe of never-before-imagined visions of the future is a hilarious cast of characters, including a pet cockroach and a heroic team of malfunctioning misfit robots.

Filled with surprises, action, humour and heart, WALL-E also features original and innovative sound design by Academy Award®-winner Ben Burtt, the man responsible for the voice of R2D2 in Star Wars (as well as work on E.T. and Indiana Jones).

5.0 out of 5 stars WALL-E, 16 Feb 2009
By R. Collier (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A beautifully envisioned, beautifully made film, I can honestly say WALL-E is one of those films that warms your heart everytime you watch it. I remember sitting in the cinema the night I first saw it and smiling, non-stop, for the entire performance.

The details within the story are subtle and brilliant, and the way in which the essentially technological objects are transformed into fascinating characters with a phenomenal amount of depth and emotion is astounding. The use of music is also very clever, and complements the impressive sound design perfectly helping create a film that is both visually and aurally stunning.

The extras are also well worth your time, if purely for the fantastic brand-new short BURN-E that fills in an interesting plot-point from the feature film, and gives a lovely bit of back-story that helps establish the beginnings of an entire WALL-E mythology. A truely lovely touch. The second disc also has plenty of fascinating features in which to endulge.

It's safe to say that WALL-E had a lot to live up to, not just in terms of how it would stand within the Pixar cohort, but also in my mind. The trailer made me fall in love, and the film was truly one of those films that managed to excel on all accounts. I really couldn't recommend this innovative, resonant, emotional film any more highly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quite simply, it's perfect!, 23 Aug 2008
By D. Jackson "DJ" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   

WALL.E, while being loved by all the critics, probably won't be as popular with 'everyone', because it's so different from anything Pixar have done before: i.e. for a good 40 minutes of the film, there is almost absolutely no dialogue: therefore some of the younger viewers are likely to loose some interest. It plays out kind of like an extended version of one of Pixar's short films.

WALL.E is basically an adorable little rusty cube. He's been sent down to Earth to clear up all the mess that the humans made- before they left the planet and started a perfect life up with the stars, in a gigantic spaceship. Eventually he meets Eve- a smooth, white, hovering probe with a short temper. An amazing outer-space adventure kicks in after WALL.E discovers life on Earth.

It could be said that WALL.E is totally unpredictable, because sometimes you're never really sure what direction in which the plot is headed. There's not really a voice cast I can comment on, but all the characters -and the few lines of dialogue- are brilliantly believable. In my opinion, it's genius how Pixar have created such emotion between characters through simple eye movements and how fast the characters move.

I'd say that this is probably Pixar's best film; Ratatouille I thought could not be bettered- but clearly I was wrong. WALL.E is able to make even the most stone-hearted audience members laugh and cry in equal measure. It's a classic, obviously. Everything about it touches on greatness: the characters, the landscapes, the quality of animation, the ideas, the imagination... the list is endless.

It's a little film with a big message.

There's a feeling you get at the end of this film, a buzz, a tingling sensation from head to toe: it's called joy.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Out of This World Famil-E Adventure, 18 Nov 2008
By Mark Baker (Santa Clarita, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
The opening shot is of downtown New York City. Only these aren't normal buildings but towers of blocks of trash. WALL-E (voiced by beeps and Ben Burtt), our hero, is a glorified trash compactor who has made the mountains. As we follow him across the vast landscape, we learn that he is the last of his kind and that he is indeed on earth. Humans fled years ago because they bought into the commercialism of the Buy-n-Large stores that ruled the earth. The resulting garbage overran the planet.

But WALL-E is not a mindless robot. He is curious and collects bits and pieces of things that are still intact. At night, he takes these to his bunker where they are on display a la Ariel. His only companions are a cockroach and a video tape of Hello Dolly.

Into this world comes Eve (voiced by beeps and Elissa Knight). Eve is another robot but much more high tech. She is on a classified mission. WALL-E immediately falls for her. So much so, in fact, that when the spaceship returns to collect Eve, WALL-E tags along. Suddenly, the two find themselves caught up in an adventure with the future of mankind at stake. Can they save humanity?

This isn't quite Pixar's best, but it is very good. I mean, we've got robots who hardly speak as our main characters, yet we are completely rooting for them. And even though the dialogue is limited, these robots have personality. But it was the limited dialogue that got to me. I got tire of long stretches where the only words we heard were Wall-E and EVE calling each others' names, especially during the climax.

There are few characters here. Frankly, that makes sense due to the extra effort it takes to develop character and story without dialogue. And the story was a tad slow in spots, but it usually picked up about the time I was ready to move on.

There are some many cute and funny moments in the film. While most of these will appeal to the whole family, even those that kids wouldn't get are appropriate for all ages.

The animation is spectacular throughout, but this is especially true once we leave earth. There are some space shots that took my breath away.

There are several morals lurking just below the surface of the film. And you know what I appreciated abut them? They lurked just below the surface. Oh, they're hard to miss, but the story never stopped to lecture us.

While slow at times, I had a smile on my face by the time the film was over. And really, that's what it is all about.
