If you have kids or don't have kids please rent Wall.E.  This is just the cutest little movie for kids of all ages!  I rate this at 4 out of 5 stars.

Hi- Did you mean rent it?

I reminded me allot of short circuit but had a better plot.

The family and I loved this movie.  Simple, good message, great graphics, sweet love, and minimal violence that is from any human emotion, mechanical.  I think easier to ingest for a doting father.  5/5

I hope the movie industry figures out we would all like to see more quality movies instead of the crass, low class garbage that permeates the cinemas. So much for the FCC...

Less-than-enticing trailers kept me from this movie for a while....but, I rented for my daughter and she ended up loving it.

She asked me to join here one day a couple days ago and I have to say, even on the 8" video machine we watched it on, it was a lot of fun.

I don't think it was quite the blacokbuster than John Lassiter / Pixar and Disney had hoped, but it really is quite a little treat of a movie.

This is one of the great aspects of Netflix. Just like there is a whole world of great music out there that never makes it to "Top 40" airwaves, the same is true of Cinema. Netflix has some very helpful software that allows you to discover great films you would have never otherwise heard of. There is a LOT of great stuff out there...just have to take a little time to look for it.

My daughter brought this movie over on Thanksgiving Day and after most of the family left we popped it in the DVD player. I realize I'm in the minority here but I did not care for it at all. For some reason I just don't care for the premise of machines having human emotions. Never bothers me when those emotions are displayed by animals but when machines do it it doesn't work for me. Sorry.

I saw this in the theater. Yeah it's kinda corny, but I really liked it. I thought it was a really fun movie and it was interesting that despite the contrived and limited nature of expression that the emotional impact was there anyway.

Just watched it tonight. The sound and pq lived up to expectations (I had this thing CRANKING with the DTS), but the story seemed a little thin to me.  I'm a big fan of Pixar, but I can't really say I have any interest in watching this again. That being said, I did buy it, so at least now I have my first BD reference disc. Supposedly there is also a really great Pixar documentary on one of the discs in the set, too.

I watched this with my kids (ages 4 and 8 ) a few months ago. I thought it was cute (not more than that), but my kids did not care for it. Even though my son (4 yr) was heavily into garbage trucks at that time.

I just watched this tonight with my 16 year old son. My 10 year old twins had already seen it. I would agree it is 'cute' but nothing to write home about.

 I really haven't seen a movie in many years that lived up to it's advertisements. They just don't make em' like they use to.
