Honestly I was a little sceptic when I first heard that the first third of the movie of mute like the old Chaplins. Well, that was an overstatement and total exageration. So don't let that scare you! Even though Wall-e doesn't talk there is a lot of dialog in this movie! At least we have this point clear right from the beginning.
Now, Wall-e tells the story of a small " Waste Allocation Load Lifter-Earth-class" meaning a cleaning robot that has been cleaning earth for centuries and gathering weird interesting garbage that he finds with his friend the cockroach! Yes, coackroaches are pretty cool but that was already establish in Joe's Appartment.
One day Wall-e finds a living plant and of course curious with it he keeps it in his collection of weird stuff. The next day a ship arrives on earth with Eve a pimped out Ipod whose mission is to find a life source on the planet. And that is love at first sight for Wall-e and the beginning of our adventure that I'll let you discover for yourselves.
For years Pixar have been the masters of animation and with Wall-E they go a step further creating a world and a mood that is astonishing for the eye and specially for the heart, because not only you will fall in love with this movie but with Wall-E, the Captain, the cockroach and all the small details of it!
Magic would be the actual word to what they managed to create. And it works, you smile with the movie, you laugh with the movie and yes you even cry with the movie.
So I'll advice you all, specially you fans of magic, that if you are in the mood for an amazing epic tale, packed with adventure and love then this movie is definitly for you!
Watch it and cherish it!
I'll definitly buy the dvd when this is out!
