A Review Of The Disney Film Wall-E

By Alexander Willis

Arriving to theaters on June 27 of '08, Disney Pixar's "Wall-E" was a huge hit. Having millions of hits, critics ranked this film highly. Between the laughs, and the tears, this movie is over-all a heart warming animated film. Wall-E has gained many friends since the release date, and has quickly raised his popularity level!

WALL-E has been nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars. This is such a milestone! No animated movie has ever won Best Picture. This film not only represents friendship and the extend that some go to keep it alive, but it also symbolizes love. Some of you might laugh at that remark, but when you can feel a connection between two animated characters, you know it has been put together very precisely.

Small in size but big at heart, Wall-E embarks on a journey that could change destiny forever. This trip could could change the fate of robots and mankind. This small robot has no idea that what he will find in outer space could take over the entire world. The reason Wall-E left his normal lifestyle is because he met another robot, Eve. Eve stole his heart immediately, and when she left for the distant future, Wall-E followed along like a little puppy.

Wall-E's purpose is to clean up the waste that covers the earth. He picks up, piles up, and compresses trash. While at the job site, he encounters something very strange. Something that has never happened before. Me meets Eve, which came from a rocket ship that landed in the junkyard spontaneously. Wall-E feels attraction towards Eve, which is why he takes the long journey back to the future with her. Eve does not know the small robot came along.

When he arrives in outer space, he does not have anything on his mind aside from Eve. He has no idea where he is, or what is going on their. Things start to uncover about Wall-E realizes that humanity is in harm due to lack of proportion with corresponding things. I'm not going to explain the entire movie here. You will have to watch the movie yourself!

In a short duration, I will discuss a couple o the cast members that play a role in this movie. Successful Ben Burtt voices two characters in the movie, Wall-E and MO. Ben is very productive in american sound designing. He was involved in many world phenomenon movies including Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, E. T. The Extra-Terrestrial, and Star Wars.

The costar of Wall-E is Elissa Knight, who is the voice of Eve. She is an actress in many other animated movies. Elissa plays Lil aka "3" in Toy Story 3, Tia in Cars, and a woman in the restaurant in Ratatouille. A couple other character voices consist of Fred Willard who voices Shelby Forthright - BnL CEO, John Ratzenberger who voices John, and Kathy Najimy who voices Mary.

Filled with laughs, and sad moments, this film has a heart warming plot.
