Disgustingly Cute

Let's face it, Pixar knows what they're about- virtually everyone of their films being a success. And while WALL E is not the strongest addition to their expanding CG film library, it won't disappoint. I mean how can anyone not like a story about a kind, child-like, garbage robot (one who bears a striking resemblance to Johnny-5 from the Short Circuit films) falling in love with a sleek, futuristic, space droid (was it weird that I found EVE kinda hot?). In WALL E Pixar does what they do best, delivering gorgeous animation with a creatively original plot, and lots of laughs and even some tears (I DID NOT CRY! - even though I wanted to). In spite of the film's environmentalist agenda (Al Gore would be proud), WALL E is a harmless, heartfelt adventure the entire family can enjoy. Two and a half stars for WALL E.
