WHY DIVAS SHOULD WATCH WALL.E

coz we've met them.
=_=!

SYPNOSIS
One of the most anticipated movies of the Summer was worth the wait, to the point of falling into the list of one of the best films of the Summer. That is the case of WALL•E the ninth release by Disney and Pixar Animation Studios, directed and written by Academy Award®-winner Andrew Stanton (“Finding Nemo”). A film that just keeps the tradition, the standards, the quality and the imagination that only Pixar and Disney can provide.

WALL•E (Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) is the story of the last earth survivor, a robot. He has the life of a blue collar worker by leaving his home to a waste yard piling up and compressing garbage and the one that he finds curious he puts it into his lunch bag. His only companion is a pet cockroach and all the gadgets he stores in his home that is until a space ship drops off EVE (Extra-terrestrial Vegetation Evaluator) with the sole purpose of finding life on earth. But she finds more than a plant, WALL•E becomes her faithful admirer and eventually her hero. These two with their creative robotic features are absolutely hilarious and heart warming characters who fall into sticky situations without forgetting that they carry the fate of humanity on earth in their hands.

Amazingly the audience will connect with these characters regardless of their limited verbal participation in the film. Yet it is their feelings which transmit that sense of humanistic traits that helps to bring life to the characters and enhance the story. The lack of dialogue do not take away from the cleverness of this production, as a matter of fact the wit of the producers is highlighted for its futuristic mechanics and features presented throughout the film.

The visual aspect of the movie is golden, as Pixar sets a new standard in animation. Their attempt to put to use new technology into different camera angles is quite innovative. The same goes for the sound, which was beautifully matched to compensate enormously in a film that lacks dialogues. The sound was complemented by the music of the talented Thomas Newman and Peter Gabriel

Andrew Stanton's expectations as described in his own words; “we wanted the audience to believe they were witnessing a machine that has come to life. The more they believe it’s a machine, the more appealing the story becomes.” It is obvious that Stanton has met his purpose when creating this heroic and loving robot .
