Its funny that I end up watching two movies yesterday both about robots in love. The first one I watched is Cyborg She. A japanese movie about a guy who has no luck with girls suddenly finding himself a cyborg girlfriend who is not only gorgeous but will risk everything including her own life to save him. The movie is hilarious and touching at the same time. It takes a while to understand what is going on because of the side plot involving time travelling. Overall its a very entertaining movie and the climatic Tokyo earthquake scenes at the end was quite realistic. Its almost like hollywood standards. I love the soundtrack too...went to HMV to buy it straight after the movie.
Few hours after catching Cyborg she, went to watch Wall E. I remembered when I first saw the trailer of Wall-E a year ago, with Wall E staring up at the sky and say the now signature "WAAALL -E" I was thinking..oh gosh, could this be Pixar first flop after the near flop "CARS"? I mean, movies about robots arent really that interesting...whats more its about a lonely robot. But I was completely wrong. Pixar delivered something so amazing that even without any dialogue in the first half of the show, the movie is still very engaging. Wall E is so cute, innocent and funny and they even managed to make a cockroach seems loveable. The theme of the movie is great and the stories about two robots in love laid out like this is ingenious. Bravo to Pixar once again! Proves that we dont always need animals tat talk non stop and act silly to have a great animated film.
