Wall-E

Wall-E is easily one of, if not the best movie I have seen this year. The most endearing fictional character since E.T. and it is easily the best kids movie since Babe: Pig in the City. It's like an animated Charlie Chaplin film. The first half is so good and beautiful that I could have watched little Wall-E clean up garbage for the entire running time. Once Wall-E leaves Earth, though, the real adventure begins and you are caught up in a whole new, different type of story. One with a pretty heavy message for a kids movie that never gets in the way of being entertaining as Hell. Not only a great animated film but a great sci fi one too. It's a masterpiece of its type.

I think Sean and I are the only people on the planet that didn't like Wall-E. I thought it was ultra preachy and it got so annoying that we just left. I did like when he had his collection of things in his garage thing, but that was it for me.
