WALL-E is another visually stunning story from the house of Pixar. Directed & written by Andrew Stanton who was also responsible for ‘Finding Nemo’. This is a very clever and heart warming film, full of humour, friendship, hope and even romance.

I say classic but I’m sure that there’s an awful lot of people who had never heard of ‘The Day the Earth Stood Still’ prior to this latest version.

However, I was not sure what to expect from Clint Eastwood’s screen adaptation. I can sum it up thus…Brilliant, emotional, powerful and somewhat disturbing.

However, I think that most reviews are probably academic, as I noticed that the opening weekend broke all UK box office records.

It was nominated for several awards and it brings together again David Cronenberg and Viggo Mortensen following their work on the brilliant History of Violence.

It was one of three DVD’s my son bought me for my birthday in August and I was just waiting for the right moment to watch it.

Which is exactly what I did.
