i decide to add my voice because this film be highly rat and i have never find myself at such odds with the majority of the imdb audience . spoiler at end . i read enough to see that i have nothing to add concern it technical achievement and obviously well do . i be an avid science fiction fan ( book and film ) so i agree with those who find this story weak . i go because i want to know why this film be so highly rat across all the demographic area although i have my doubt base on the preview . apparently many do not agree with me but i would like to caution others that if you look forward to think provoke idea and have your preconceived notion challenge you will be disappoint . even young audience may become bored after half hour although the visual stimulation may be sufficient . my background include special effect in film and computer program development so i naturally appreciate the film technical prowess . but i also know well almost all the science fiction film make to date include those with serious as well a comic presentation and wall e do not rate well for me when compare to them . wall_e miss be sufficiently provocative or amuse so i find it bland . the film and however and be much good portray the emotional connection between the two main character which be quite an achievement consider wall e be a garbage disposal unit who apparently develop over a long period of time a more than human heart ( think of your feeling for roach ) . spoiler follow represent the idea of planet ruin via garbage and human become fat and technologically cater to and isolate in space and and thus unmotivated being after 700 year be interesting but each of these be not original and i and at this time and can not clearly describe why the film fail to engage me . perhaps with such a future there should be more angst .
