Arya, I couldn't agree with you more. In fact, there is really nothing more for me to say since you covered everything to a 'T'.

I was happy to see a bit more action in this movie, but not at the expense of expanding on Bond's character.

Your comments about Dominic Greene were spot on too. Such a lackluster character for a Bond film.

Unless you're a hardcore Bond fan and must see this in the theater, I'd hold off until it hits the shelves in a DVD format. What a shame....

I really have to agree with Saul's rating of this movie. I watched it a few days ago and the ratings are spot on.

I enjoyed the storyline of the movie and actually the length of it as well. It was nice to watch a movie that wasn't over in an hour and ten minutes.

Although the visuals were good, they were nothing awe inspiring especially after some standards other movies have set today.

What was notably under par was the acting. It looked visibly forced and the "only because I have to" attitude.

It's a decent Netflix rental but nothing I would pay to see in the theater at all.

I don't have much positive to say about Wall-E. I thought I was going to be watching something along the lines of Finding Nemo, Lion King, etc. Something designed for kids, but with some adult humor thrown in.

What it felt like I was watching was another movie with political overtones.

People are lazy in the future. They're fat and useless and everyone does everything for them. There's no vegetation on Earth anymore or so it's believed.

It just reeks to me of Disney sending a message on how lazy people are and how plant life is so important to us (*cough* global warming).

Kind of the general consensus I got from talking with people as well.

Sure, the affection between the two robots reminded us of maybe simpler times, but again, it really felt like I was being lectured.

I finally got around to watching this last night. I was truly hoping for more. I enjoyed Sixth Sense, Signs, even The Village.


{SPOILERS BELOW}

I enjoyed being presented with endings that I least suspected. As the movie went on and on I felt like I was watching some type of Michael Moore film on global warming. I'm enduring all of this and waiting to be hit with this huge surprise ending.

No such luck. Vegetation that is pissed off at us 'for some unknown reason' aka global warming releases a chemical that makes us want to kill ourselves. Uh huh.

Then at the end to just have the whole story start over again? No thanks. Hugely disappointed.

The game started off really well in my opinion. Ninja Vs Ninja. At a difficulty that was fairly reasonable too.

Before too long you end up battling ninjas with guns, then ninjas with machine guns, then ninjas with rocket launchers. At what point would they not be considered Ninjas anymore???

Then we have the bosses. Underwater dragons, huge armadillos. They would have been so much better off by just sticking with a varying type of ninjas instead of all of these odd characters.

I'm on Chapter 7 right now and it has to be one of the most difficult chapters so far. I can only imagine how the next five will be. Like I said the first two were perfect.
