I don't disagree with this summation about the story. I was a little disappointed when they left earth, too. And the story was preachy and I didn't understand how the people became so attached to Wall-E especially since the events seemed to play out in real time...which would have been about 45 minutes or so, lol.
But the children in the theater where I was watching it were not bored.
And I liked all the little noises. Probably because I don't know what either an iPod or a Mac sound like.
