WALL-E
on DVD
(2008)
Starring: Fred Willard, Jeff Garlin, Ben Burtt
Director: Andrew Stanton
Certificate: 
To put it simply, Wall-E rates alongside The Dark Knight, There Will be Blood and No Country For Old Men as one of the finest films of the year. Yet again Pixar have managed to create a beautifully crafted environment populated with unique, colourful and engaging characters that take the viewer on an exciting and emotional roller coaster ride. Wall-E is primarily a love story between two very different robots, but the film is fairly unique in the Pixar canon as it also deals with adult themes such as globalisation, consumerism, the environment and obesity, but these themes are used with subtlety and never alienate or preach to their audience. The beauty of Pixar and why it is consistently successful is because they treat their audience with respect. They craft engaging, entertaining family films that place the emphasis on telling finely crafted stories that are aimed at the WHOLE family.
