Re: Wall-E (MiceChat Reviews) I just got back from the midnight showing and it was wonderful. My favorite PIXAR movies are Ratatouille and Toy Story 1 and 2. Wall-E is right up there with the best of them. It is an intelligent and thought provoking satire on corporate culture and how we treat the environment and ourselves. The two main characters (Wall-E and Eve) have very, very few words at their disposal, but they are some of the most likable and enthralling characters in film history. Stanton largely uses the magic of "Pure Cinema," which refers to films as a purely visual art to get the story across. The dialogue is very minimal and that is one of the reasons I love the film. It makes the film something unique, something you don't see every summer. Wall-E is one of those rare movies that is one of a kind. It has elements of the satire of sci-fi films like Robocop and Blade Runner. The score is also great, it helps increase the sense of wonder at certain points.
My rating= 5 out of 5. It's really something special, even by PIXAR's high standards.
