A kids movie that is hardly kid friendly where most of the time is spent without dialog and nary a furry animal in sight, it must be Pixar. In a time where studios realize what cash cows animated kids movie can be and are saturating the market with as much of them as possible regardless of the content as can clearly be witnessed in the trailers leading up to Wall-E. It should come as no surprise that Pixar once again scores big. Despite the marketing leading us to believe that is is standard kids stuff it cannot be further form the truth. The ideas explored regarding pollution, love, our reliance on technology and humanity are well over the head of most kids and some of the best laughs come at the expense of the humans who are clearly to comfortable with themselves and their surroundings to the point of complete ignorance of anything else. The animation is as usual top notch and nothing less can really be expected as Pixar is always looking to raise the bar. With all the so called family movies that theaters are going to be bombarded with this summer, Wall-E will stand alone.
