I Like My Disney Dark

Paranoid Android

So I went and saw WALL•E last night...buying into all the positive hype it was receiving and I ended up absolutely loving it...and this is coming from someone who loathes Disney and anything associated with it (except for the occasional Hannah Montana episode). The movie is adorable and amusing while also teetering on the dark and subversive side. I really dug the sci-fi elements and feelings of robo-isolation at the beginning before WALL•E and Eve take off to space. The visuals are arresting and although the “special environmental message” is a little heavy handed, Wall•e and Eva's love story shines through. So go out and see Wall-E...probably one of the most entertaining blockbuster films to be released this summer (that is of course, until the new Batman movie comes out).
