absolute stunner of the film however is their computer animation. While "Toy Story" was a technical marvel and is still great to look that, the geniuses behind Pixar have taken their game to a new level. They make a garbage-covered planet into something heartbreaking and beautiful. The movements of the characters are life-like in their fluency. The scenery itself is so breathtaking. At times, the film looks and feels real. Storyline wise, "Wall-E" is tough to beat, but Pixar will be hard pressed to outdo the amazing animation here.

Unless a minor miracle happens, "Wall-E" has already all but locked up a fourth Oscar for Pixar. With this film, Pixar has practically proven that they can do no wrong after nine straight hits. But "WALL-E" is another kind of hit; it is a hit that works on the level of a developing child, young teens and adults. It is funny, sad, exhilarating and very moving. An almost non-speaking robot stars in a film that will steal hearts, with a positive message to boot. "WALL-E" is one of Pixar affiliate Disney's best and is arguably the best thing Pixar has ever produced. It is one of the best films of 2008 and quite possibly one of the greatest animated films in history.
