Pros: -Great Animation
-Great Story
-Cute little robot
Cons: -A bit slow in the beginning
Summary: The Story: (***Minor Spoliers***) Wall-E a (Waste Allocation Load Lifer Earth Class) robot is doing a job he’s been doing for years…compacting trash. He is the last mobile thing on the planet since it was abandoned due to so much pollution that it ... read more

Pros: It has a few cute parts and discusses humankind trashing the earth.
Cons: A boxlike robot that rolls falls in love with a bulletlike robot that flies.
Summary: Wall-E is a box type robot that is left to clean up Earth after people have trashed it and left. Wall-E is probably a male (though how a robot box would know what sex s/he is is beyond me). A robot female, Eve, (we now realize they are male and female ... read more

Pros: Excellent story
Cons: Some scenes get a bit loud
Summary: A G-rated film that it’s best not to bring the whole family too? Yep, that’s my recommendation for WALL-E. It may be Pixar and Disney but it’s not for everyone. The Film Get to the movie on time. There is a short about a ... read more

Pros: Good message...we should want the best for those we love.
Cons: I am sick of the "geedy American" offal offered up here.
Summary: As a citizen of the most generous nation on earth (USA) I am super-duper-sized sick of the notion that we are greedy ner-do-wells. We enjoy our creature comforts, but this makes us all look like Jolly Green Giant consumers run amok. I don't buy it. Pun ... read more

Pros: Pixar great storytelling and visuals.
Cons: Wish they'd given us more characterizations on some of the other robots.
Summary: In the rankings of my top Pixar movies I would place Toy Story 1 & 2, Nemo and then WALL-E in order of liking, but they are all fantastic. WALL-E, the little trash compactor that could, presents perhaps the most enduring Pixar character since Buzz ... read more

Pros: WALL-E offers excellent animation and rendering of movement and texture of mechanical objects.
Cons: Prepare to be brainwashed
Summary: I suspect that the outpouring of critical acclaim for this film is directly related to the overwhelming political correctness of the various explicit and subliminal messages it force-feeds the viewer: We are destroying our planet, capitalism ... read more

Pros: Wall-E and the message of protecting the earth.
Cons: The second half of the movie went astray by introducing humans and spoken words.
Summary: I am in love with Wall-E the robot and not so much the Wall-E movie. Sure, this is another knock-out animated feature from the Pixar guys and they have an adorable lead character. But when Wall-E (Waste Allocation) robot leaves earth for the newly ... read more

Pros: Absolutely beautiful to look at, wonderful love story too.
Cons: May be too sophisticated for some.
Summary: Pixar Animation Studios has brought us movies that rival those that were made during the golden age of Disney Animated Classics. And Wall-E continues that tradition by making a computer animated film with sophistication and style. It's a terrific ... read more

Pros: Pixar animation, WALL-E is a CUTE-E
Cons: Too much reality, not enough fun
Summary: So, I enjoy a good Pixar film. Who doesn't? They set the bar for excellence in storyline and raise the bar in animation. I'll admit that I have seen Toy Story more than my fair share of times. But I was disappointed by WALL-E. I loved the first ... read more

Pros: For all ages, made us try to be less wasteful in garbage.
Cons: Ending was kind of a disappointment. Left you wanting a lot more
Summary: Took my 17 year old daughter, and 11 year old son to see it on the day it came out. All three of us laughed through out the entire movie, and spent the ride home 'acting out' different parts of the movie, still laughing our heads off. The movie's ... read more

Pros: Sweet love story, nice sci-fi story, brilliant animation
Cons: Movie drags in places
Summary: On a recent trip to New Jersey to visit my in-laws, my husband and I found ourselves with a free afternoon. So we left our daughter with my mother-in-law and headed off to the Cineplex. We could have taken her with us- she and I often go to the movies, ... read more

Pros: Cute love story
Cons: Not many laughs for the adults or kids! Some bad human animation.
Summary: Now that my oldest son is 13, I feel pretty comfortable having him take his little 10-year-old brother to some of the animated movies so that I don't have to go along. However, since big brother has been at band camp these past two weeks, I reluctantly ... read more

Pros: Unique, cute, funny, great for young kids
Cons: Not great for adults and teens. Not much dialogue, although points are understood
Summary: I took my entire family to watch this. The adults and teens thought it was cute, but not great; however, my 2 little girls ages 3 and 6 loved it. Wall-E is a very cute, lonely robot who has been left behind on a trashed Earth, while all other life has ... read more

Pros: deeply moving, gently humorous, ambitious in scale and scope
Cons: some inherent irony for the more cynical among us; minor plot points
Summary: It is hundreds of years into the future and Earth has been abandoned by the humans who, through their massive and uncontrolled consumerism, made it uninhabitable. When they fled in a cushy cruise spaceship (there’s more space in Space, after all), ... read more

Pros: The loveable character of WALL-E
Exquisite animation
Less-is-more lack of dialogue
Cons: None for me
Summary: My common reaction after watching even the most well made animated films is “that was cute.” But coming out of the theater after watching Pixar’s WALL-E, left me with a wistful smile on my face and thinking, “that was lovely.” ... read more

Pros: Beautiful CG, cute story, rated G.
Cons: Half of it is boring and unnecessary, animated humans are done poorly, love story_is_not_very_deep.
Summary: Coming into the movie I was expecting a lot more than what I got. It was an interesting and unique concept, and I applaud them for that. But the overall result was just an average movie. This is a love story between 2 robots. The main character is ... read more

Pros: dazzling animation, great little details in the plot
Cons: no real villain, just conflicting points of view, Kubrick meets Mr. Rogers
Summary: There's a scene in 1999's The Matrix, when the Oracle apologizes. "I'm sorry," she says, "I really am. You have a good soul and I hate giving good people bad news." Well, I'm no oracle and I have no cookies to share. Still, after seeing this film, I ... read more

Cons: All animated movies aren't this good

Cons: everything that came after. (when they boarded the Axiom)
