 | | 18. Guardian (2006) (Blu-ray) | | | Starring: Ashton Kutcher Kevin Costner Director: Andrew Davis | | Format: Blu-Ray DVD Release Date: 5/30/2008 |  | The Guardian - Blu-Ray DVD Review By: Matt Paprocki - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 12/4/2008 2:14 PM | | Replace the Coast Guard with basketball, football, or swimming, and you have the basic Disney formula behind The Guardian. This isn’t a revolutionary film, but it’s a story that Hollywood has surprisingly avoided, and the Coast Guard deserves way more credit than they get. Politics aside, there’s an average tale of someone going above and beyond for the sake of others in the face of adversity that’s been done to death, even if it’s done well here. read the full review | |

 | | 29. Wall-E (Single Disc) | | | Director: Andrew Stanton | | Format: DVD Release Date: 11/18/2008 | User Rating: 4.5 | | Video Reviews Available: 1 |  | WALL-E - DVD Review By: Sean O'Connell - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 11/7/2008 4:31 PM | |
WALL-E, the studio's ninth full-length feature and second from director Andrew Stanton, catapults to the head of Pixar's illustrious class. The enchanting tale of a lonely robot's quest for companionship is one of the studio's finest films, an absolute masterpiece that continues Pixar's initial promise to transport us to infinity and beyond. Yet even that label limits the film's staggering accomplishments. WALL-E seamlessly melds wondrous science-fiction, big-screen romance, and adolescent heart. One of the year's best films, WALL-E likely will go on to be considered one of the greatest animated movies ever created.
