I just love the WALLE storyline and was very excited to be able to purchase the dvd at a fair price on Amazon. My family absolutely loves to watch it. It was delivered very quickly and very well packaged. I definitely recommend seeing this movie if you like those pixar animated movies.

Wall-E.... Try blue, it's the new red!
Added 10/27/2009
Wall-E: 8 out of 10: I was never a big fan of the Short Circuit movies. It was not just the thespian outings of Ally Sheedy and Steve Guttenberg I had issues with; I also hated the freakin robot. In addition, while I have admired some Pixar releases in the past (The Incredibles in particular), I am hardly the biggest fan of the studio and often admire some of their competition (such as DreamWorks Shrek) more.
Therefore, I did not go into Wall-E with very high hopes. Had I known it featured the music of Hello Dolly I may never have seen it at all. After the first twenty minutes, I was blown away.
I will let other reviewers explain the Chaplin style magic of the piece. Suffice it to say wow. When the movie settles into somewhat of a plot it does bog down slightly (There are at least one to many scenes of robots we do not care about chasing other robots we do not care about) but in reality it is simply a different magic.
Emotionally satisfying and wonderfully subversive Wall-E is necessary viewing for adults. I am not sure if it necessarily a good film for young people with poor attention spans, but thoughtful kids will get much out of it.
Moreover, kudos to Pixar for making one of the most individualistic anti-commercial films I have ever seen.

GREAT MOVIE
Added 10/22/2009
My experience with Amazon has been phenomenal! Every item purchased came on time or before in excellent condition.
I purchased several items for my grandson's birthday Wall-E was in the package deal. When I saw the beginning of the movie I said he wouldn't like it but to my surprise he loves it askes to watch it over and over.
When all hope seems lost and you find a spark to say it is worth living that's what Wall-E says to me.
Excellent family movie.

This was a wonderful dvd, made you laugh, but know the impact of our trash on the enviroment, for generation to come. Very well done. We need more Wall-e's in this world.

Superb Animation
Added 10/12/2009
My BF and I really enjoyed this film, it's one of our favourites now. While watching for the first time we didn't notice that it was silent for half the movie, the characters were so expressive they didn't need to speak. Not an easy task when the actors aren't human! The animation was fantastic as well, before Wall-e boards the Axiom (and you see the humans) we found it easy to forget it was animated. It was as if we were watching a live action film. This is, in my opinion one of Pixars greatest films to date. I do have a very large HD TV, and I don't know if the quality would be as great without it, but the story is still fantastic!
