A good love story has a hopeless romantic and the girl of anyone’s dreams but you also need a little excitement and adventure to make things complete. WALL-Ehas all that and is done in superb CGI fashion with plenty of what makes a movie good for all ages.
WALL-E is of course about a boy and girl robot, is there such a thing, and how WALL-E saves the day from that evil robot out to rule the rest of the human world. Well, in this case the bad robot is just following orders but we see it as the evil bad guy in this story.
WALL-E, Waste Allocation Lift Loader Earth-class, is the last robot left on a ruined Earth where man has left while the robots left behind do his dirty work and clean up the planet. The Buy N Large Corporation which is the only manufacturer, producer and corporation left on Earth has taken over everything, including the cleanup effort on Earth.
Our planet is doomed from all the garbage and BNL has created a plan along with lots of robots to carry it out, robots will clean up earth while the humans will take off for outer space in ships to have fun in the virtual sun. But things do not go as planned when we see WALL-E as the last robot still doing his duty and packing junk into small cubes to stack up into piles.
With lonely desperation we see WALL-E and his buddy cockroach performing a day of routine junk compacting and picking up a few interesting bits of junk here and there. He takes these things back to his garage home made from an old WALL-E transportation vehicle where he enjoys a quick romantic musical before calling it a night.
The mornings of his usual routine are much like ours until we get up and refresh ourselves in our usual manner, WALL-E does his morning pick me up with a brisk morning sunshine to recharge his solar batteries. Then it’s off to another day at work compacting more junk and stacking it up according to his directives.
A red light much like a laser pointer shines on the ground after work one day and WALL-E takes chase when it zooms off but WALL-E doesn’t see the row of lights following the single one. After a furious chase WALL-E is almost landed on by a huge space craft where a lovely i-Pod like robot emerges and starts to scan things around her.
WALL-E follows EVE, Extra-terrestrial Vegetation Evaluator, around and after some interesting poking around her environment discovers WALL-E. They become instant acquaintances and WALL-E takes it upon himself to show her around his small home.
When EVE takes little interest in everything he shows her he remembers a plant he found the other day which she scans and suddenly draws the plant into her internal compartment and shuts down. WALL-E is frantic and tries his best to wake her up, he even drags her outside the next morning in hopes that the sunshine that recharges him will do the same for her.
After days of guarding her from the ravages of our dying planet the space ship returns to scoop her up and take her away. WALL-E follows in a crazy adventure that is so much fun with all his little escapades surrounding the bigger plot of the autopilot of the large space vessel the Axiom having orders a bit different than the people would want.
People have gotten very lazy and taken to sitting in hover chairs and doing nothing but virtual everything while sipping from drinks that replace food. The autopilot has a plot of its own to keep people from returning to earth but the captain of the ship discovers this plot and fights back.
