WALL-E is an Oscar nominated film, with the movie nominated as best animated feature.
This Pixar film is pretty darn good, and deserves its nomination for animated feature. WALL-E (2008) does a nice job of making a feature that kids will enjoy, but adults will take a lot from too, and it does it with most of the movie showing a little tin can robotic creature that does not talk, and another robot that does not either. A animated film with no humans and no dialogue. I bet that pitch to the studio went well!
But, they pull it off. WALL-E has such a personality that somehow, it works. Set in earth's future, as humans abandoned it for space luxury space cruises, the environmental message is not subtle. WALL-E is about the only thing left moving on the planet, going about his job trying to clean up all the trash we left behind. When a probe comes down in the form a sleek and stylish robot, WALL-E is infatuated.
The movie follows his adventure, and it is fun, and a little scary to see what the movie-maker envisions humans to be in that future.
I really enjoyed WALL-E. It was fanciful, amusing and with great Pixar animation. It told a very good story, and somehow made you care about a little run-down robot.
