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

Don't judge the Frenchman by his nose
The 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.
Talking mice go back a ways to:Ben and Me: An Astonishing Life of Benjamin Franklin by His Good Mouse Amos
It might be said that since the black plague which was spread by fleas
on rats in the middle ages, rats have had
a very bad reputation. From the experimental lab
where rats are a basic, one finds that rats are
only as dirty as their keepers allow them to be?
The gene profile of rats is very close to that of humans,
so that most drugs are given to them first
and humans only if the drug is safe there ( doesn't kill the rats).
So a movie about an intelligent rat is funny and
food may never be the same again?

Really well made
This is a highly entertaining children's film. A bit scary in the beginning for super young kids. Got to say though struggled with the whole RAT thing. Never quite could wrap my head around that.

This is just a great movie, kids or no kids
I 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 Finding Nemo and the Incredibles will really enjoy this film. It's just THAT good.

A rat that cooks???
I had reservations about Pixar's ability to pull this one off.
All of Pixar's movies have had non human stars in them.
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 Antz that much. But that was just my taste.
Am I the only one or did Ratatouille make you hungry for Italian food too???
Another masterpiece from the company that can do (almost) no wrong.
Recommended!!!
