I was thinking, how is it possible to make an animated film where there's almost no dialogue, and turn it into something truly great, both in terms of storytelling and entertainment that makes the audience laugh? It indeed entertains. Both children and adults. It’s one of the most original cartoons of recent times. A film that children will love, and that also holds meaning for adults. There are interesting and memorable characters and ideas here, which are important for an excellent animated film. Moreover, it's an absolutely excellent science fiction film.

Great science fiction, excellent comedy, and probably the best animated family movie you’ll see this year. As is usual with most Pixar movies, WALL-E will grab you at the beginning and hold you until the end and, in the meantime, it will guide you through an incredibly sophisticated universe where each component has its place. Children will be thrilled, adults will be astonished by the incredible scenery (abandoned New York from I Am Legend gets nowhere near this) and those in between, maybe both.

WALL-E is one of those animated films that managed to make me laugh, move me and amaze me, which is a pretty strong combination even for a feature film and there are few representatives of all these qualities today. It's the kind of sweet, almost endearing diversion that both children and adults can settle down to, and there's definitely something for everyone. Even though the script is so ... concise ... it still amused me. The film is accompanied by a great musical score, and putting the classic music from Hello Dolly! into the plot was also a great move. Technically, I have nothing to complain about, I enjoyed it as much as I could and still had something to look at: truly amazing and breathtaking animation. In short, an animated film that succeeded for me in every way, and that's the most important thing for me.

Cute, visually breathtaking, quite shallow in terms of content and cheaply moralistic, but if you take it as an eco-fairy tale created by playful Pixar children, it cannot disappoint. There are plenty of spikes in the humor, beautiful places and nice music, so it's easy to forgive that it's blinded by a very permeable and shallow story. It is a film for children... maybe overgrown children, but still children. WALL-E works.

Perceiving WALL-E as just a pleasant fairy tale about robots in love is a bit misguided. Pixar has its stuff down to a science. The initial retro atmosphere, the work with film references, Newman's music, the fantastic visuals, and the admittedly primitive, yet incredibly energetic story, which doesn't sell its ecological message and criticism of consumerism as cheaply as it might seem, are proof of clever creative minds that are simply good at what they do, no matter what some of the stodgy scrooges around them think. Pixar films have a heart as big as the world economic crisis and I’m happy to be entertained and moved by them again and again.
