Ritchie's story is told with a signature narration and follows the pursuits of a bunch of get-rich-quick, bumbling, loveable rogues who could have walked straight off the set of an Ealing comedy. With trademark flashes of visual panache and humour, it's all perfectly serviceable, but still leaves us guessing over whether Ritchie is just a one-trick pony.

WALL-E
Date	Location
Inspired by sci-fi classics from the 1960s and 70s, Pixar have created a post-apocalyptic story set in a future in which the Earth has been abandoned by humankind, where a solitary robot named WALL-E executes his now pointless trash collecting programme.
