Plot: In a distant future, approximately seven hundred years later, the Earth is over-run with millions of garbage and without any plant or animal life.
This is the consequence of years of pollution. The humans planed to live temporarily in a spaceship while the robots Wall-e were cleaning the planet. But something went wrong and only one robot was still working on the planet. And the humans had to live in the Axiom and forgot all the beauties of life, and the Earth! One day, a space probe returned from Earth. It had found life (a plant) in the planet. Finally the people could go back home! And then a great adventure begins! However, they had lots of setbacks. It wasn’t as easier as they thought because just outside of the city, plants had already begun to flourish.

Review: This film is very interesting because calls our attention to the problems of the environment and the effects of the new technologies in people’s lives. It is about a love story between robots (Wall-e and Eve): this shows that everybody has feelings. The special effects were very good too.

Recommendation: It’s a must-see. You will have a good time seeing this film. It also won an Oscar, in this year (2009) “Best Animated Feature Film of the Year”.


Rating: ****
