I’ve never met a Pixar movie I didn’t like.  These guys are 9 for 9 at delivering films that are not only visually beautiful, but offer amazing stories with lovable and funny characters.  But even with the bar set incredibly high at the outset,  WALL•E manages to deliver an unbelievably amazing film that makes you marvel at how much emotion can be conveyed between protagonists that are basically mute.

Here’s an excerpt from my “WALL•E” review:

WALL•E and EVE are able to speak their names and a few other words, but the vast majority of the way that they communicate with each other, to the roach, and to the audience, is done non-verbally.  While that might seem like a terribly boring beginning to a movie, I assure you that you’ll hardly notice, as everything that you need to know about WALL•E’s life is perfectly fleshed out, and you don’t end up missing any speeches that would have been overkill had they been included.  WALL•E is painfully lonely, and no expositional dialogue could illustrate that better than watching him power down into a cube, put himself on a shelf along with the rest of his things, and then gently rocking himself to sleep.  That visual is enough to elicit an “Awww, poor guy,” from the most hardened movie viewer.
