I am just back from seeing WALL-E. This is an important film. Made even more so by the fact that it is a child's film.
When I was in college, about 15 years ago, I used to attend animation festivals. They were brilliant 5 minute shorts. This is where pixar bega...with it's lamp cartoon when CG was in it's infancy. This movie is the culmination of all that creativity.
Add to it the seriousness of the topic. I was emotionally enraptured the entire time. It is one of the most socially important movies I have ever seen because of the harsh mirror it shows to an unsuspecting audience.
Kids or no kids: go see it.
It blew my mind.
