Watching WALL-E :-)

Happy Birthday to Hongkeng and Nora


Today I went to good ol' Vivo City, not only to have lunch at Superdog, but also watch the movie I've been waiting to watch all this while... "WALL-E"!! :-)

Seriously, this film is a must-watch for people of all ages, definitely worth the ticket price. A light-hearted film of 3D wonder, with an easy-to-follow plot. The robots who stole the limelight have gotta be WALL-E, EVE and the cleanliness-obsessed M-O. the film really takes off right after WALL-E ditches his boring life in a barren Earth by hitching a ride aboard EVE's mothership, into outer space and to the Axiom spacecraft.

But on another note, it's kinda sad to see the humans in the Axiom spacecraft being so obese and lazy, they rely heavily on the transport chairs, and have apparently become ignorant about the Earth their ancestors had once inhabited some 700 years ago. Eventually, it was WALL-E's courage that makes Captain McCrea (who is just as fat as the other humans) come to his senses, and he makes it his mission to lead humans and machines alike to restore Earth's biosphere with a renewed sense of purpose .Visually astounding, lyrical yet profound, it is an original that pushes the final frontier of animation.

9.5 out of 10 points... do catch it while you can!! ;-)
