Initially aloof and hostile, EVE begins to warm up to WALL-E and takes a liking to him. Despite its constant presence of comedic occasions and dialogues, Wall-E’s background story revealed a darker theme. The plot occurs in a close to future, the place people become slaves of know-how, and consumerism completely takes over our democracy and free will. After abandoning our planet because of a global environmental crisis that makes Earth uninhabitable, humans search for refuge from a spaceship sponsored by BnL, the very firm that deprives people of moral values and even of our mother nature. After generations of women and men born and raised on the Axiom, the BnL-hosted gigantic spaceship, away from Earth, people not know their origin along with the absolute lack of reasoning, dwelling beneath totalitarian management of the BnL system. Hence, I take the liberty to say the plot of this movie is totally unsettling.
