Christianity Today Relishes Trash, Waste, Environmental Destruction, and Obesity

In other words...

Christianity Today film critic Josh Hurst loves WALL-E!

And it is absolutely not a political movie, no matter how hard a small faction of political bloggers might try to pin it as one.

But even more than a great work of sci-fi, this is a great work of cinema. WALL-E is Pixar's boldest, bravest film yet, opening with half an hour in which no dialogue occurs. Much of the story is told, then, only through images, and in this regard, it's the most sophisticated and subtle film Pixar has yet made. There are moments of inspired visual humor, and of poignant visual metaphors. There are small gestures and little moments that say more than a script ever could. It's so gloriously evocative, surely it deserves to be called poetry.
