Wall-E

Continuing with my movie marathon, such as it is, I watched Wall-E, which was an entertaining, family-friendly flick.  Gotta love that alliteration.

Anyway, the first 52 minutes of the movie are a little unusual.  There's little to no dialogue, and you watch a robot left on Earth run about and do his daily stuff --housecleaning, watching TV, the whole bit.  I could understand it being a little dull for some of you, but he's a relatively cute robot overall.

Finally, after the appearance of Eve and a symbolic impregnation of her with a plant in a boot, we are whisked off to the more action-filled and, well, entertaining portion of the movie.

I won't give away the rest for those of you who still haven't seen it, but it's a cute movie with a strong message.  Don't treat the Earth like crap, people.  The latter half of the movie definitely had me laughing, and I was left with an overall pleasant feeling and a desire to water my basil seeds.

Happy viewing.
