Our take on WALL·E

Pixar's 2008 gem opens on an abandoned Earth where a lonely cleanup robot has spent centuries tidying our trash — until a sleek probe named EVE sparks both love and a journey into space. Its near-wordless first act is animation at its most daring; the rest is a gentle warning about consumption and complacency. If its blend of wonder, romance and quiet ecological worry charmed you, The Wild Robot and other thoughtful sci-fi animations share its heart and its imagination.
