The girls and I just returned from a showing of WALL-E. Elise is working so she couldn't make it. Tonight was the only night available for the girls since we are going to campmeeting tomorrow and the girls will be staying there next week for their camp.
Anyway, for those that haven't seen it yet (which is probably less than 1% of the American population...) much of the movie is without what could be called dialogue. Communication, both between the characters in the movie and the movie to the audience, takes place. Pixar did a great job with their animation, using visuals much more effectively than words could have expressed.
The theme of the movie (according to my view) is an exploration of a response to the question, "What does it mean to have life and live?" The movie suggests a number of related responses that might be surprising and very thoughtful.
It was well worth the price of admission. Be sure to stay and watch the closing credits. The story doesn't end with the final scene -- there's an epilogue in the credits.
