Adam Nayman

The Ringer

The tale of a trash compactor from the future who's desperate for connection isn't just one of Pixar's unlikeliest successes, but its most arresting and prescient.

The Spectator

Much of the film is wonderfully imagined, and there is something utterly winning about this tin can topped with binoculars... It's just a shame that, at the end, it trips itself up with its own SENTIMENTALITE.

MUBI

Although Wall-E ends with a very apt and moving nod to City Lights, it is in fact Pixar's answer to Modern Times-both a bravura summation of everything the studio is great at and a "You ain't seen nothing yet!" statement of purpose.

The director Andrew Stanton used the cinematic technique long shot in the movie Wall-E (2008) to reveal to us the advancement in technology in very futuristic. When Walle and Eve were traveling on a small, fast, see-through, tram on the spaceship the directors used a long shot to show where they were heading to. Eve got taken in a giant spaceship because she found a plant. Walle was in love with her, so he snuck onto the spaceship. Eve had to go to the captain of the spacecraft's office, so they had to go on the fast see-through tram. When they were on the train the director used a long shot to show where the robots are heading to. Ultimately using a long shot in Walle, it revealed to us the cool advancement in technology.

Even though this movie has a bit of talking, it didn’t need it to be amazing. Pixar listen to me, make a WALL-E 2, not a Toy Story 5.
