Thumbs up Wall-E

Simply: Brilliant.

I'd personally say it eclipses "Nemo". Beautiful, at times hilarious, touching, poignant, and surprisingly, it's an almost scathing critique of present day society in relation to the treatment of the earth (and the government's role in it), the use of earth's resources, and the treatment of our own bodies

(in a not-so-subtle jab at America's rising obesity rate).


I'd be willing to say one of the best movies of this year, easily, and has likely cinched the Oscar for best animated film (again, easily).

It's surprisingly fresh, and unbelievably touching. I highly recommend it, not just for kids, but for anyone, really. The subtle commentary is engaging enough to provoke serious thought about ourselves and our society, and its humor is broad enough to entertain everyone. Go forth and watch.
