Wall E Review

Writing a review for Wall E is like breathing in fresh air, its something so great and absolutely wonderful that you don't need to be told how good it is.

Wall E is probably the best film ever released under the Disney banner, nothing they do will ever match up to how wonderfully awesome this movie is, least til Pixars next movie that is.

You follow the adventures of a robot left behind on earth to clean up humanities garbage, and over the course of 700 yrs, the little guy has develop a sense of being, has become self aware. And the one day another robot lands on Earth looking for something and then slowly over time, Wall E starts to fall in love with this robot.

It's an incredibly heartfelt story. I teared up a few times, but I also laughed a whole bunch too. It also helps that Wall E looks alot like 80's robot hero Johnny 5 from Short Circuit and I loved that guy, I cried like a little baby when he "died" at the end.

Anyways, the CGI in this is something to behold. Pixar has completely outdone themselves here. If I didn't know it was a CGI cartoon, I would have thought it was shot on some grungy backlot in Hollywood. Awesome job.

My only real complaint about the movie is that is too short. It is 98 mins long, ample time for a cartoon, but I could have easily sat there for 2 or more hours watching this movie. Thats how much I loved it.

Definitely add Wall E to your X-Mas list if you haven't bought it already. Its a great family film, that I am 100% sure everyone will love.! 5 outta 5 stars!
