(Wife): When I worked in an elementary school, our first-grade students watched this movie as part of our teachings on environmental stewardship. It also imo kinda satirizes consumerism, which I think is needed in our modern society.

At home, my mom and dad; husband and I; and sister / brother-in-law -- three households, each home to at least one electrical engineer -- each has a copy of this. It's one of our favorites.

It's a great message and storyline; we enjoy Pixar's sense of humor; and the sound effects, voice casting and musical score are fantastic. Seriously, I love the musical score! It's beautiful, and I often hear parts of the score playing in my head after watching the movie. This movie also contains the best usage of Apple's Machintosh boot-up "dong" sound I've ever heard -- kinda a joke in the movie, if you watch it. Overall, a job well-done, imo.

In my opinion, Sigourney Weaver's "Caution: Rogue Robots" line as the voice of the Axiom spaceship may end up her best line ever, although my personal favorite exchange is between Auto the autopilot and the Captain:

Auto: "On the Axiom, we will survive."
The Captain: "I don't wanna survive. I WANNA LIVE!"

Words to live by, imo. = )

A note to parents: Does this movie deserve a G rating? Well, there is some violence and pistol usage (and couple explosions from the gun blasts) in the movie. No human characters end up seriously harmed, although one robot character -- a villain -- does "die" resisting the protagonists in the story. (There is a moment of peril in the movie, but the protagonists live.) Other than that, Wall-E does end up putting a bra in his "interesting finds" lunchbox, and Eve does scan a port-o-john. That's about it. But, if you would wish to avoid the movie, due to gun violence, I can certainly respect that.

For what it's worth, our three-year-old likes this movie and watches it fairly often. But, we also watch it with her, and she is not super-sensitive or afraid of much of anything.

Another factor to consider: This movie goes long stretches with no dialog. Personally, I've used that time to describe to my daughter what's been going on, and to voice what some of the robots are thinking. (You can tell by their actions and demeanor.) So, I've used this movie as a tool to help my daughter develop listening skills -- which have over time grown into speaking skills. This is unusual to find in any movie, so I appreciate it.

As an added bonus, the movie also helps introduce our young daughter to the concepts of a round earth, rocketry, robotics and outer space / space exploration.

So, I would say that overall, Wall-E is entertaining and can also function as a great teaching tool if you're just creative with it.

Oh. My. God.
This movie is one of the greatest works of art I’ve been privileged to know EVER.

Without repeating the plot you basically know, here are the outstanding features:

Lack of dialogue. This movie manages to tell a story with barely any dialogue. How? Gotta watch it to believe it. Best of all, the main characters are robots and yet they still manage to develop a relationship - again, without dialogue.

This story is futuristic, and takes place in the larger galaxy, but stays grounded in the world as we know it. It takes a bit into the movie to show the greater context of where humanity is at, but there’s no confusion. That’s Pixar’s talent - to take you slowly thru a beautiful story without letting you question where you’re at but without giving away where you’re going.

So yes, you should watch this movie. Fast.

The DVD comes with two shorts - Presto, an unrelated short film that’s really cute, and Burn-E, a short episode about another robot in the Wall-E world, showing his story in a really humorous way.

What an incredibly touching movie. I find it impossible and incredulous, but I love the premise, and the eventual outcome. Good over evil, and good prevails. I love the characters, and I think "Wall-E" is a charming and wonderful young man. It doesn't matter at this point if he is over 700 years old. He makes us all feel like we can attempt and succeed at anything. The changing of his "treads" and the collection of aesthetics are the most endearing things about him. I know that none of the "lighter fluid" would still be in anything 700 years old, but it serves to connect him to us. A brilliant movie, in my humble opinion.

The difference between the 4K and Bluray is not as striking as you might think. The 4K looks marginally better but I would save my money if you already have the Bluray. Also, the DTS Master Audio is better than the New Dolby Atmos track. Most of the power and impact have been softened to a purr. Stick to the DTS track and enjoy the movie. The Atmos track is a 1/3 softer and Atmos??? What Atmos? I am glad I got this movie as my original Bluray didn't have a digital copy but that is the only thing going for this edition. It is marginally better and was on sale.

We purchased this DVD years ago when my now 9 year old was 2. He loved the movie so much he went through 2 copies of it. Now our fourth child it almost 3 and doesn't talk. He loves this movie. What better for a non verbal 3 year old than a movie that has very little dialog and is really about the body language and panamimes of the characters. I'm so happy that these days I can download digital copies and save myself the pain of scratched DVDs. I surprised the kids with it last night and all five children from 12 to 1 were glued to it. The older kids had forgotten how much they loved this movie and the younger kids found a movie they now love. In less than 24 hours this movie has been played 4 times.

I'll not review the film; I'm sure thousands of others here already have. I only had this on an old DVD, and saw this on the 4k for a great price. I don't yet own a 4k tv, so have only seen the 1080p Blu-ray, but wow, that's already an upgrade! The sound actually struck me first; so dynamic and much more highly resolved than on the DVD. The picture is lovely; as far as I've understood the major difference between the Blu-ray and the 4k is, as usual, the HDR with deeper blacks and some brighter highlights, but I cannot confirm; the source-format was digital, which probably means a resolution of 1080p: the intermediate was 2k, so the uptick in resolution will be very limited from 1080p to 4k. This Blu-ray is lovely, so if you like the film; just get it!

As some of the other viewers have written about the dvd not delivering a full movie, and jumping from scene to scene or just going blank. It has happened to me. I order a lot of movies from Amazon and this is the first one to go bad on me. I will reorder again and hopefully get a good copy. If not Amazon will be getting both of these copies back and a phone call to see if we can figure this out

This movie is one of my all time favorites! As a mom I was forced to watch these kinds of movies and I must say that Wall-E is a movie even parents can enjoy. I actually watch this movie more than my kids do now-a-days....
Wall-E is a movie about a robot that was made to collect trash that we (humans) have caked the earth in. While Wall-E and his many brothers are cleaning the earth the humans take a space cruise and never come back. Fast forward 700 years, Wall-E is the only robot left working, all the other's have broken down, and he is sentient.
One day a spaceship comes and drops off another robot and Wall-E is infatuated with her, which she doesn't seem to let bother her after a while. They become friends and when she suddenly shuts down Wall-E is heart broken. The spaceship returns for her and Wall-E finds himself on a journey that will have consequences far beyond what one little robot could imagine.
