WALL-E


Film Opinion

Directed by Andrew Stanton
Written by Andrew Stanton and Pete Docter
Vocal Talent: Ben Burtt, Elissa Knight, Jeff Garlin, Fred Willard, John Ratzenberger, Kathy Najimy, Sigourney Weaver

This is Pixar's best so far. The first forty-minutes are truly sublime despite (or maybe because of) almost zero dialogue. Scathing satire and beautiful imagery are both in service to a central love story that reminded me of Charlie Chaplin films. I will see this again soon.

GRADE: A

Wall-E totally looks like the robot from "Short Circuit"... minus the cheesy 80's style of course
