Wall-E is Chaplinesque in the worst way.

If Wall-E has anything original to say, it takes place in the first 30 minutes on a planet heaped high with junk. But the parallels between fiction and reality are almost too painful to contemplate.

Vastly overrated movie with all the charm of two vacuum cleaners making love.

Ultimately, the elevation of technology to center stage, and the relegation of humankind to supporting act, left me cold.

The picture feels weirdly, and disappointingly, disjointed, something that starts out as poetry and ends as product.

WALL*E begins with all the comedic splendor of a Charlie Chaplin film, but quickly devolves into a rickety bore.

While Wall-E dances whimsically, it's a plodding, frighteningly hypocritical, and forbidding film that trips over its fogged intentions at every dreary turn.

The film poses as thinking-fans animation, but there's little room for wonder or interpretation in the on-the-nose presentation.
