My five year old asked to leave only 10 minutes into my dissertation so I decided to save it and just enjoy the movie.
Take these three things from my review. (1) Wall-E is visually stunning! Breathtaking. Many movies aren’t worthy of making the trek to the big screen movie house or, better yet, IMAX, but Wall-E is an exception. See it in the theater if you can. (2) Wall-E has a beautiful story of love and responsibility and its message is clear – this future-Earth is a real possibility if nothing changes in our behavior. Also of note, I did not get teary eyed at any point in this movie unlike a certain spunkybean writer who uses only his initials as his name. (3) Leave the 7-and-under crowd at home.
I give it 4 out of 5 beans. Why only 4 out of 5 beans when I claimed to have loved it? Well …because it could’ve been slightly more kid friendly. That’s my only knock against it.
