Review of WALL·E

WALL·E (2008)
6/10
OK if you like this sort of thing I guess.

Make no mistake, Wall-E is a well-made movie with a good moral. But I'm afraid that, for me, that's where it ends.

I was reminded a bit of "2000 - A Space Odyssey" when the robot tried to take over the spaceship. But then I suppose, in this instance, practically everyone was a robot! Even the humans reminded me of the 1969 Zager and Evans number 1 hit song, "In the Year 2525" where they were all like vegetables. (You need to listen to the song if you don't remember it and you'll see my point!)

I'm afraid I just can't quite come to terms with two robots falling in love and so the story was pretty much wasted on me. However, the idea of the Earth slowly becoming one huge garbage dump sometime in the distant future isn't so unbelievable! Maybe the time will actually come when the future of the whole human race depends on a cockroach and one little weed growing in an old boot!
