movie time: Wall-E

Wall-E (Waste Allocation Load Lifter-Earth Class) is a cleaner robot.


The movie started with how the robot piles up all the compacted waste and returns to his home to watch an old film. One day a spaceship lands and leaves behind a white, oval-shaped robot, EVE (Extraterrestrial Vegetation Evaluator). For the first 30 minutes or so, you will not hear any dialogue, other than electronic sounds between two robots calling each other's name - “Eeeeva!” says one, then the other responds, “Wall-eeeee! Until they are in Axiom where they meet some friends and how Wall-E became a hero, leading the people back to earth.

While we were watching, the little girl said, "is that earth? that's so sad". Then she was giggling-reacting to the two robots liking each other. A family movie, kids no doubt will enjoy it. Still having hang over with the movie, we were talking like the voice of Wall-E and Eve and hubby said Wall-E reminded him of the movie "Short Circuit". For us, however, the first half was quite dragging and hubby even fell asleep at several parts. The second half picked up the pace and was funnier.
