WALL-E (2008)

WALL-E is an animated film directed by Andrew Stanton. It is an excellently delivered and moving film that makes to look at our modern world differently. The characters mainly communicate with robotic sounds. The film has little human voice featuring towards the ending.

WALL-E is a robot designed to clean Earth from garbage. Earth is abandoned by humans and is covered with trash. There is just this sweet and adorable creature or metal piece WALL-E who is only surviving unit of his type. He everyday leaves his robotic house for compacting garbage. He then orderly arranges cubes of garbage.

All humans are out in space in a big space ship. Buy-n-Large Corporation evacuated Earth’s population some seven hundred years ago in Axiom, cosmic ship. After five years in space, Earth was deemed too toxic for living and humans remained in space.

WALL-E collects objects that he finds useful or nice and brings home. I loved the way he threw away the ring and kept its box. One day he finds a little plant. Later, a space ship arrives and leaves behind EVE, another robot, designed to find a life on Earth. WALL-E cannot pronounce her name correctly and calls her EVA. Their relationship is very touching. Wall-e falls in love with her and gives her his plant.

EVE automatically stores it and sends back a signal. The space ship returns for her. Wall-e clings to the ship and arrives in Axiom. Humans in this ship are obese and suffered bone loss because of relying on automated systems. Axiom’s Captain does not do much, and leaves control of the ship to the robotic autopilot, Auto. As part of the directive to keep humanity away from Earth, Auto resists return to Earth. Its assistant tries to destroy the plant, but WALL-E saves it. Auto tries to isolate captain and stop the hyper-jump of Axiom, instead captain deactivates Auto. Humans are finally able to return home.

During these encounters, WALL-E is seriously damaged. EVE brings him back to his home for repair, but WALL-E might not be his cute self again.

It is a lovely, exciting, emotional, and different from others animation that you will enjoy a lot. It is great and outstanding both for children and adults.
