Wall-E (Three-Disc Special Edition + Digital Copy and BD Live) [Blu-ray] Specifications


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. Wall-E is preceded in theaters by the comical short Presto in which a magician's rabbit, unfed one too many times takes his revenge against the egotistical magician.

Customer Reviews


This film is really two films. The first half of the movie has ruined our beloved Wall And on a planet trying desperately to clean up the planet. Then a spaceship and Wall E falls in love with a female robot. He becomes a stowaway aboard the ship, and ends in a world with many (very much) when a lazy, overweight people.

The first half of the film is amazing. It is told mainly by pictures, and dialogue is a small robot to talk. " As usual with Pixar, isamazing to look at. And you feel the vast and empty wasteland that Wall E is having to deal with. The addition of the female robot is sweet and touching. I was totally mesmerized during the first half. Unfortunately, the 2nd half of the film is preachy with its usual "humans are stupid and killing the planet" theme that's been done a lot and it's really done here in an obvious, ponderous, heavy handed way. We see a ship with humans who are indulging in overeating, no exercise, watching bad TV shows, etc., etc.. It 's a pretty obvious metaphor for people on the course. Is not completely ruin the film, but the 2nd half would be better. His "message" is so difficult to overcome the feeling, sometimes like you as a teacher. The animation is still great, but, but we expect from Pixar.

Wall E is yet to be seen for his phenomenal first half, and the astonishing visual througout the film.
