My Movie Review on Wall E

Wall E: Movie Review

. . . In a world kept silent, one heart beeps . . .

Walt Disney Pixar's Wall E by Andrew Stanton is not just like any ordinary movie - not just a digitally animated feature. In fact, you will forget that your are actually watching an animated film. The unhurried mystery of the introductory part which lasted thirty (30) minutes or so with barely no dialogue spoken and almost no human beings can be seen on screen creates a dramatic effect to the movie as a whole that is quietly enticing for the moviegoer to really finish watching till the end. The cinematic effect was perfect just like those of Pixar's previous movie, the famous of which is "Finding Nemo". However, if one lacks the interest and essence of intellectual perception, the movie may appear so dark and gloomy - lifeless and wasted as one can be deceived in that early silent part of the movie. Yet, with those willing to watch the movie upto the end will find out that Wall E is not just really a very simple and sweet love story of two robots, but it is also a story about staying true to your own heart in the blandly evil face of authority. It is a tale about saving the small things and cherishing the world you live in, no matter how imperfect its surface might seem. The film is full of teachings and values one moviegoer will never forget.
The movie sets us down in a rusty, urban desert, all glaring sun and junk - heap skyscrapers, where the only living thing, or at least the only thing that moves is Wall E, a cute, squat robot with drooping binocular eyes whose name stands for Waste Allocation Load - Lifter Earth - Class, the last of his kind created by Buy-N-Large Corporation.
Humans have literally trashed the earth to the point it's uninhabitable, the plants have all died, buried under miles of garbage. With no means to sustain themeselves, humans fled into the luxurious spaceships created by the same, Buy-N-Large Corporation, who all became later as fat couch potato globs and vaguely resembled the Pillsbury Doughboy. This scene shows what happened to people who loves to eat, eat, and eat,.and use almost everything what corporates produced in the market.
Hundred of years after humans fled the earth, Wall E is still doing what he's been built to do, molding scrap metal into bricks and piling them into neat towers. With his friend, the cockroach, on watch, Wall E, sorted and collected stuffs which later turned out to be useful, interesting and may even be precious. He ends his day watching an old video tape of "Hello Dolly". Then a beautiful twist happens, one day, Eve (Extra-terrestrial Vegetation Evaluator), a female robot came. She was sent by the same corporation to search for vegetation. Wall E fell in love. It's love at first mechanized heartbeep. What is so exciting is to see robots enter into the realm of courtship - through the conversation of chirps and beeps. Well, you will love them both . . . you might cry . . . you will laugh am sure...why? Wall E wants nothing but to connect to this state-of-the-art metallic cutie, Eve. He is but a persistent suitor. However, Eve is not of the same wavelength. She's only interested of finding some vegetations and returning fast to the spaceship. And so, she returned to the spaceship to report to Buy-N-Large Corp., and Wall E goes along. Nothing will stop to this starry-eyed Wall E, not even hundreds of thousands of miles of space travel, evil robots, or even weird jelly-ish people.
Wall E is really a joyous film. Its great to watch...very worthwhile. It's one of the best animated movies ever created... Watch it yourself.
