WALL-E
WALL-E is one of Disney’s 2008 films that kids all over the planet were waiting to be released – mainly because of the ton of advertising that preceded it. So did it work? Absolutely, WALL-E was a financial success story, as well as being a really solid film, both for kids and adults.
The story takes place in the future, long after humans have polluted the earth and left on a large ship. While the human continue to live a lazy life out in space, thousands of WALL-E robots have been left back on earth to clean up our mess. Only problem is, they have all broken and there is only one left.
After hundreds of years a spaceship shows up on Earth and brings another robot called EVE, she’s looking for any sign of life, besides WALL-E. When she discovers a plant, she shuts down and waits to be picked back up. In the mean time, WALL-E seems to fall in love with her. When the ship picking EVE arrives, WALL-E goes with her.
There’s a ton more to the story, with loads of warnings for the human race always working their way in, in the back drop.
Overall, the attention to detail and the story itself were really good and very entertaining.
