Synopsis: What if mankind had to leave Earth, and somebody forgot to turn the last robot off? Academy Award®-winning writer-director Andrew Stanton (“Finding Nemo”) and the inventive storytellers and technical geniuses at Pixar... What if mankind had to leave Earth, and somebody forgot to turn the last robot off?

Academy Award®-winning writer-director Andrew Stanton (“Finding Nemo”) and the inventive storytellers and technical geniuses at Pixar Animation Studios (“The Incredibles,” “Cars,” “Ratatouille”) transport moviegoers to a galaxy not so very far away for a new computer-animated cosmic comedy about a determined robot named WALL•E.

After hundreds of lonely years of doing what he was built for, WALL•E (short for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) discovers a new purpose in life (besides collecting knick-knacks) when he meets a sleek search robot named EVE. EVE comes to realize that WALL•E has inadvertently stumbled upon the key to the planet’s future, and races back to space to report her findings to the humans (who have been eagerly awaiting word that it is safe to return home). Meanwhile, WALL•E chases EVE across the galaxy and sets into motion one of the most exciting and imaginative comedy adventures ever brought to the big screen.

Joining WALL•E on his fantastic journey across a universe of never-before-imagined visions of the future, is a hilarious cast of characters including a pet cockroach, and a heroic team of malfunctioning misfit robots.

Filled with surprises, action, humor and heart, WALL•E was written and directed by Andrew Stanton, produced by Jim Morris, co-produced by Lindsey Collins and features original and innovative sound design by Academy Award®-winner Ben Burtt (“Star Wars,” “Indiana Jones,” “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial”). The film is due for release on June 27, 2008.

    Not about high profile characters or big action, it delights by entertaining and inspiring more subtly. Who expected that from any movie these days, let alone an animated one?

    Simplicity and complexity harmonize together in cinematic zen in the instant-classic WALL%u2022E, a film that uses technical prowess to tell a straight-forward yet far-reaching story.

    Ultimately, the elevation of technology to center stage, and the relegation of humankind to supporting act, left me cold.

    A visual tonic of a film, wise enough to give its audience plenty of space.

    If anyone doubted that Pixar is the most creative outfit in modern motion pictures, this movie should convince them. It is a genuine masterpiece, a word I don't use often.

    It's a credit to the animators that they were able to create believable emotions in these beeping hunks of computer-generated metal.

    What transpires is a delightful and almost heartbreakingly tender love story between these two expressive and adorable characters.

    Despite an intriguing story, the picture falls from Art to the realm of kiddy-film fare. I'd have loved to see Pixar limit the dialogue to two words: Eva and Wall-E.

    In what must be a tongue in cheek nod to his Antipodean origins, writer/director Andrew Stanton has named the CEO of By N Large, Shelby Forthright (the only genuine human seen in the film)

    Wonderfully inventive, this whimsical sci-fi animation from the wizards at Pixar is topical in its environmental message and full of heart when it comes to its robot/ droid romance. Brilliant execution

    Saving the world became secondary to the power of holding hands. There is an amazing amount of life and humanity throughout and a quality message to boot.

    Stanton finds more success with a tender, thoughtful and terrific-looking animated film.
