First off, I will get this out of the way. I am a Pixar fanatic. Anything Pixar makes, I watch. There are a lot of movie studios out there releasing 3D animated motion pictures but, no offense, nothing comes close to how fantastic Pixar movies are. The graphics and 3D animation is spectacular, the style of putting in short films before the start of the movie is refreshing, and the storyline is just simply fantabulous. Woohoo!! There. Now on with the review.
Disney and Pixar’s (Toy Story, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles) latest release WALL-E is a story about a robot who travels to the deepest reaches of outer space in search of a newfound friend. The year is 2700 and the earth is no longer habitable. It was a normal day for WALL-E (Waste Allocation Load Lifter – Earth Class) when another robot from outer space arrives – EVE (Extra-terrestrial Vegetation Evaluator). And there starts the adventure…and the romance! I will not reveal any more details. If you haven’t seen it yet, what are you waiting for? Go!
This movie was directed by Andrew Stanton, the same director who brought Finding Nemo, so my expectation on this movie is already sky high. After watching the movie, it did not meet my expectation. It exceeded it. Given that the main characters are robots that do not speak human language at all; they were able to convey a wide range of emotions that can connect to humans watching it. I must admit, the movie’s beginning part is a bit dull. Maybe to reflect the equally dull “life” that WALL-E lives but as soon as that was established the movie immediately accelerates to excitement, then to thrill then to a perfectly executed “aawwwwww” moment. The scene where EVE discovered the thing that WALL-E did while she was “unconscious” is super cute and very endearing. Another plus factor is the movie’s undertone on human responsibility to its environment and the spring of hope that lies eternal. All of these are developed in a storyline that is classic Pixar – entertaining!
Maybe I should stop writing and watch the movie one more time...

Hi there!
Pixar is the new Walt Disney. They do what they wish in animation: With Toy Story, they where the firsts doing something like that. Whit The Incredibles, they create a new myth: the actuation of the 3D actors are better than most of the "real image movies" over there...
With Wall-E they reach a new record: The expresion, situation,poses etc makes unnecesary to Wall-E (or EVE) to speack. We alwais know what's happening with no words. It's not easy.
I love Pixar Too
