Wall-e was a cute, funny movie with awesome animation and effects. I forgot it was animated at some points! My 2 sons, age 4 and 6, enjoyed it. My DH thought it was slow at the beginning, and not as good as he expected, but I thought it was just right. Yes, a little slow, but that's appropriate for the story-line. Wall-e is alone and his life is monotonous. What I love is how he found joy and beauty around him despite that. We all agreed that once the story moved onboard the "cruise ship," the pace picked up and kept everyone's attention. Kung-Fu Panda is still our most favorite this summer, but Wall-e gets 7 thumbs up from the Power House.
