It really should have been billed as "Not a fun kids movie" IMHO. Still surprises me that people liked that movie.

- adamhowell 17y agoIt's still the only movie my 3-yr-old daughter will sit through. The first 30 minutes is some of the best storytelling ever put to film, IMHO. So much told with so little. Other Pixar movies like Monsters, Inc. or Cars are either too scary or too talky. Wall-E is the perfect balance, and such a well told story that I never tire of it, either.
- eldenbishop 17y agoMy friends kid can only watch the beginning. When the humans show up, he starts crying. To scary.
- run4yourlives 17y agoWhat do mean? Movies that have points are not to be enjoyed? A movie cannot be entertaining and insightful?
- axod 17y agoIt's just more of an adult / documentary thing IMHO. They spent way too much trying to make some principled point rather than entertain. Same with 'Up'. I think perhaps they were catering to people who nominate Oscars or something. My kids were bored. Gimmie Princess and the frog, Hercules, Aladdin, Little Mermaid etc etc any day.

- narag 17y agoI don't know why you're downvoted, even if I disagree. I and my son enjoyed the film a lot. IIRC he was 4 or 5 then. Maybe your kids were older?
- axod 17y agoThey were 3 / 6 / 10. "Up" was a similar story. Looking forward to Toy Story 3 though definitely. Much more fun.
