With delightful new characters experience Paris from an all-new perspective. It's "terrific movie making" raves Leonard Maltin of ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT. In one of Paris' finest restaurants Remy a determined young rat dreams of becoming a renowned French chef. Torn between his family's wishes and his true calling Remy and his pal Linguini set in motion a hilarious chain of events that turns the City of Lights upside down. RATATOUILLE is a treat you'll want to enjoy again and again.System Requirements:Running Time: 111 Mins. Genre: CHILDREN/FAMILY Rating: G UPC: 786936727173 Manufacturer No: 05371400 Amazon.com: One key point: if you can get over the natural gag reflex of seeing hundreds of rodents swarming over a restaurant kitchen, you will be free to enjoy the glory of Ratatouille, a delectable Pixar hit. Our hero is Remy, a French rat (voiced by Patton Oswalt) with a cultivated palate, who rises from his humble beginnings to become head chef at a Paris restaurant. How this happens is the stuff of Pixar magic, that ineffable blend of headlong comedy, seamless technology, and wonder (in the latter department, this movie's views of nighttime Paris are on a par with French cinema at its most lyrical). Director Brad Bird (The Incredibles) doesn't quite keep all his spinning plates in the air, but the gags are great and the animation amazingly expressive--Remy's shrugs and nods are nimbler than many flesh-and-blood actors can manage. Refreshingly, the movie's characters aren't celebrity-reliant, with the most recognizable voice coming from Peter O'Toole's snide food critic. (This fellow provides the film's sole sour note--an oddly pointed slap at critics, those craven souls who have done nothing but rave about Pixar's movies over the years.) Brad Bird's style is more quick-hit and less resonant than the approach of Pixar honcho John Lasseter, but it's hard to complain about a movie that cooks up such bountiful pleasure. --Robert Horton Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Great Movie!This is a great movie, very good story line and excellent on Blu-Ray. The video looks great on the Blu-Ray player. Rating: - Don't judge the Frenchman by his noseThe French have a food thing going. A certain rat becomes a chef by virtue of his nose. He convinces a human to be his proxy chef and he launches a career in 5 star cooking.

Got to say though struggled with the whole RAT thing. Never quite could wrap my head around that. Rating: - This is just a great movie, kids or no kidsI have to say that this film really surprised me. What a great movie. It's got a great cast of characters that you can love, laugh at and in some cases hate. It's so well paced and written that you forget one of the lead characters happens to be a rat! It's inventive, interesting, funny, heartfelt and unique. Not since Nemo have I enjoyed an animated film so much that I immediately wanted to own it. If you are an animated film fan who loves a good story try this out. I think fans of Ice Age, and ...

I approached this film with an open mind and I came away absolutely stunned at how good it was. Another Pixar triumph!!! The acting, script, animation, EVERYTHING is just so perfect. Is Pixar run by some alien force that just "KNOWS" how to make the perfect movie??? Pixar has yet to make one dud of a movie. Well.........I really didn't care for ... Read More |
