While last weekend's new films drew some of the most scathing reviews of the year, next weekend's WALL-E, from Disney/Pixar, is likely to draw some of the most enthusiastic, if early reviews are any indication. Indeed, New York magazine asks in its current issue, "Is it possible that Wall-E's over-the-top advance reviews are correct, and this truly is a masterpiece?" Robert Wilonsky in New York's Village Voice comes close to saying as much, calling the movie "a film that's both breathtakingly majestic and heartbreakingly intimate," and concluding his review by remarking, "You'll adore it because of a cuddly, lonely little robot who breaks your beeping heart." And Harry Knowles of the AintItCool.com website praised the film as "one of the absolute best hard science fiction films made in my adult life."
