Amazon.co.uk Review Pixar genius reigns in this funny romantic comedy, which stars a robot who says absolutely nothing for a full 25 minutes yet somehow completely transfixes and endears himself to the audience within the first few minutes of the film. As the last robot left on earth, Wall-E (voiced by Ben Burtt) is one small robot--with a big, big heart--who holds the future of Earth and mankind squarely in the palm of his metal hand. He's outlasted all the "Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class" robots that were assigned some 700 years ago to clean up the environmental mess that man made of earth while man vacationed aboard the luxury spaceship Axiom. Wall-E has dutifully gone about his job compacting trash, the extreme solitude broken only by his pet cockroach, but he's developed some oddly human habits and ideas. When the Axiom sends its regularly scheduled robotic EVE probe (Elissa Knight) to earth, Wall-E is instantly smitten and proceeds to try to impress EVE with his collection of human memorabilia. EVE's directive compels her to bring Wall-E's newly collected plant sprout to the captain of the Axiom and Wall-E follows in hot pursuit. Suddenly, the human world is turned upside down and the Captain (Jeff Garlin) joins forces with Wall-E and a cast of other misfit robots to lead the now lethargic people back home to earth. Wall-E is a great family film with the most impressive aspect being the depth of emotion conveyed by a simple robot--a machine typically considered devoid of emotion, but made so absolutely touching by the magic of Pixar animation. Also well-worth admiring are the sweeping views from space, the creative yet disturbing vision of what strange luxuries a future space vacation might offer, and the innovative use of trash in a future cityscape. Underneath the slapstick comedy and touching love story is a poignant message about the folly of human greed and its potential effects on earth and the entire human race. --Tami Horiuchi, Amazon.com

Two Disc November 28, 2008 Mark Johnson (Liverpool, UK) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Disney UK release is a 2 Disc version (check UK Disney site) and our BluRay 2 disc version is actually cheaper than the US when taxes are added.
Fantastic Blu-Ray November 27, 2008 B. A. Weston 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have just watched Wall-E on Blu-Ray and have to say I was amazed with the picture quality and the audio. Likewise, the film itself was fantastic and one of Pixar's best. I would like to confirm that I was slightly skeptical before buying as other reviews stated that the audio was DTS 5.1 only and not DTS HD MA as per American version. I can confirm that when playing, my amp was showing DTS HD MA on the display and was of great quality, so I can only assume it was a printing mistake on the box. Overall, amazing film, buy it now.
Pixar pushes the limits and beyond..... November 25, 2008 Mr. J. P. Bunyan (Norwich, uk) Not much I can say really, but the animation is seamless, timeless and superb. Comedy, pathos and downright obviousness (if that is a word)! Look after OUR planet! Kids will love this film, especially on Disney Blu-ray in 1080p, Hi-def. I loved it and I'm nearly 50!!
2 discs. November 25, 2008 P. White (Cambridge, United Kingdom) 3 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have this item in my hand as supplied by Amazon and it's a 2 disc set. The insert states DTS but it plays as DTS-HD audio so no problems. This IS the same as the US set minus the digital copy disc that no sane person would want anyway. So, excellent film and a good set.
