The Top-Rated Films in Cinema History

Wall-E

When Wall-E first hit theaters in 2008, it grossed over $533 million. The film follows a lonely trash-compacting robot who was left alone on an uninhabitable planet. Profoundly thought-provoking and deeply moving, Wall-E is an allegorical tale of what would happen were the world to end today.

Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) encounters a UFO and becomes obsessed with uncovering the truth about extraterrestrials.
