Audiences across the globe are finding that WALL-E isn't quite as much "a kid's film" as it is simply "the best American film of the year to date" (Ty Burr, Boston Globe). For hundreds of years, WALL-E (Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) has been taking out the trash, and collecting precious knick-knacks in order to stave off the boredom of his dreary routine. Little does WALL-E realize that he has recently stumbled onto a secret that could save the earth and once again make the ravaged planet safe for all humankind.

“The idea that a company in the business of mainstream entertainment would make something as creative , substantial and cautionary as WALL-E has to raise your hopes for humanity.” - John Anderson, Washington Post

"You leave WALL-E with a feeling of the rarest kind: that you've just enjoyed a close encounter with an enduring classic." - Peter Travers, Rollign Stone

"You'd have to be a machine for your heart not to melt." - David Ansen, Newsweek

Rated G, 97 mins. Animated.
