Andrew Stanton's "Wall-E" (2008)

Watched this Disney/Pixar animated film on my laptop, which might not have been the best way to view its sumptuous and subtle visual effects. Witty touches throughout but the storyline is dreadfully conventional. The under-robot saves the world and gets the girl. The optimism, in view of the vividly imagined dystopia, seems facile. Andrew Stanton directs and co-writes the screenplay.
