Rat. takes Pixar several laps over other studios again. This time not just technically superior, but also story has a thick fabric. At times it even feels like realism tradition of european cinema , other times usual wishful thinking paves the way smoothly. If Pixar movies can be considered a kind of tweaked genre movies, Ratatouille has the most touch on real life. A quick half hour cut that leaves out the Hollywood bits from Rat. would reveal a movie much harsher in nature.

The best animated film of 2007 once again points out Brad Bird's excellence. Working with that man has been golden for Pixar. Ever since he created "The Iron Giant," his stories and direction have built rich characters and emotions that many believed animated films could never establish. The voice acting is terrific, the characters are memorable and by the end of the movie I was hungry and in the mood to cook. Influence is a strong sign of a great movie!

I was skeptical about this film up until after about 1 minute into it, by which time I'd developed the distinct feeling that this film would be something truly excellent. I was relieved at the end to acknowledge that my first impressions were accurate. I don't remember the last animated film that "worked" for me as well this one, with its undeniable charm (in all categories). However, I am not in the film's target age group. I don't think the younger generations would be equally impressed.

So incredibly beautiful..everything! They remind us at the end with the "Genuine Animation, no motion capture" disclaimer, and it is damn beautiful animation! This film definitely makes up for Cars which was targeted to a more "blue collar" audience, shall we say. This is the complete opposite, made for artists, snobs, and generally people of passion and intelligence. I LOVED IT! No pop culture references or Sheryl Crow songs or dance sequences, just good characters, story, and animation

A very entertaining movie that really can be compared with any other movie out there not just as a kids movie, but as a movie full stop. That said, it also shows how much further Pixar still has to go. Judged as any other movie the story is rather simplistic, the characters are overly cutesy and while it's fun to watch it all feels rather shallow and predictable. Pixar has shown they can combine kid appeal with serious themes, hopefully they'll work on actually developing those themes.

Multiple viewings can be essential for some movies and when I viewed Ratatouille for a second time, my opinion had changed quite a lot. Good, was my initial reaction and I never thought much more of it. Second time around however, everything just seemed so much more impressive. The scenes as well as animation were beautiful, it was well written and all in all it was just a joy to watch. If only more animated flicks could follow Pixar's lead and make their movies enjoyable for all ages and not ju

Quite possibly the greatest film Pixar will ever make. Trust Brad Bird and Pixar to make a talking animal film that is really a sophisticated and joyous celebration of art in all its forms. The storytelling never misses a beat, the casting and acting are flawless, and the art design is delectable. Ratatouille is already one of the great classics of cinema and animation.

"Ratatouille" is another marvel from PIXAR. It combines everything that made the company's previous gems so great: brilliant humor, action enorchestrated to perfection, likable characters and a large heart. Writer/director Brad Bird has skillfully crafted what will be remembered in the years to come as a daring, almost revolutionary landmark in animation.

What a wonderful movie. Great design of all the characters. Their physical and facial gestures show us that Ratatouille doesn't need to be full of dialogues to tell us this rich story about the search for indentity. Brad Bird even makes room for a little bit of social criticism (Gusteau's burritos, chinese food and hot dogs coming soon, xD). Thank god, Pixar still knows how to make great films. Films for both children and adults.

Delightful. Brad Bird knocks another one out of the park. There are so many brilliant moments in this film, my favourite of which is the way Bird manages to visualize the sense of taste, and the effect that combining flavours has on it. O'Toole's Anton Ego is an excellent character, and the plot climaxes beautifully. The animation is gorgeous, and the concept makes for a few very inventive sequences. A definite hit. Pixar never misses the mark.

This time they have visually reached a level so way beyond their competition that it is frightening! The story is solid, but too solid that I have grown a desire for a more non-hollywood, not-for-children kind of film from Pixar. That would be insane! :)

Fantastic. Brad Bird and Pixar score another huge hit; this makes Bird's two Pixar outings two of my highest-rated Pixars. The animation is absolutely fantastic, which goes without saying, but the story is unique and endearing, with great characters, and even if it is a bit formulaic, it's of such high quality that I can't really complain. I could watch this countless times.

Very enjoyable kids' movie that is a little more intelligent and less slapstick than some other CGI movies. I think adults may end up enjoying this one more than the kids. There's some wonderful voice acting and the quality of the CGI is a cut above even Pixar's usual high standards.

Super solid animated tale from Pixar yet again. I don't personally think it's their most emotionally resonating movie, but that's not necessarily a bad thing I guess. It's beautifully edited and directed and the voice cast is all super solid as well as. I think it's amazing that some writers made a movie about rats and kids still loved it. Very good.

I don't know why I avoided this for so long. The marketing campaign really short sold this and I never had any interest in it. I heard about the satire of Eisner in this movie and decided to see it, and really this is one of the most resonant films Pixar has ever made. It's funny and informed and its message of creativity hits home with every bit of relevance that you see in Wall-E, for example. The literally only complaint I have is how creepy Lou Romano''s character can be around people.

An utterly fantastic animated film, even by Pixar's standards. A gorgeous film with some wonderful characters and one of the most beautiful and emotionally affecting endings you'll see in any animated movie. Anton Ego's review at the end alone would make this a great movie.

Touching story, but it was a little drawn out for me. I was watching it online and kept feeling tempted to google stuff. I really enjoyed the last half hour, but up until that point, I was wondering why everyone seemed to love this as much as they did. Maybe I just couldn't get past the rat army in the kitchen...kind of skeevs me out, even in animation. But, like I said, I really enjoyed the ending, so that made up for a little bit.

I love Pixar animation, don't get me wrong, but as much as I adore the realism of the "set" (i.e. Ego's typewriter, the kitchen, etc.), the "actors" are all characatures of people, with large noses (great French stereotype there, Pixar), or loooong faces (because all dour folk have them), or something equally silly. That being said, this is a wonderful movie with a fulfilling plot.

Ratatouille is Disney and Pixar's best work since The Incredibles in 2004. Without a doubt, it's the most endearing and charming in the catalog of the CGI catalog Pixar sports, and in many ways, it's the most refined and entertaining. The writing is excellent and there is never a dull moment. Paris is just as beautiful animated as it is any other movie. Ratatouille is a winner and is surely the strongest family outing you can have all year.

The whole movie was crafted with heart and soul paired up with humor and charm, like all of Pixar's best films. It was the end of the film, where Anton Ego tries the dish and on when I had a profound feeling as I realized an animated film had just struck a chord inside of me just as deep as any outstanding live action movie. Beautiful. My favorite Pixar movie.

Quite the fun film. It's not as charmingly detailed as some of the other Disney/Pixar films, but then it also has a different feeling to it. It's an interesting type of story-telling where there's really two, three or four main characters. The animation is great, and the story has various elements to it. Sweet ending, and quite well made. Very fun, and a good film to own and watch more than once.:)

A rat in a kitchen! Oh the mirth. Look, it's probably because I don't enjoy cooking, but this just isn't my cuisine. There's nothing interesting in the story, but the good ol' "everyone can do anything" morale, which works great for boosting the morale of fat children, but for the rest of us, it's like an old Jewish joke: You can see the artistry and appreciate that it has been thought through, but be damned if it'll ever cause a laugh - let alone a smile.

I think a 65 year old man is not the target audience for this movie, unless he happens to be watching it on a nice warm couch, cuddling his grand daughter, snuggled up on a cold day in January. Then you can say that this was a true joy. Sure it was a bit long, but that just meant more dozing off time ..What's not to like?. I particularly liked the "scurrying" animation, which got the movement of the rats down to a T. Technically perfect. So often animated animals all have the same gait / weight

Elaborating on the themes of The Incredibles, Ratatouille is the perfect companion piece to its predecessor. It clarifies the "If everybody is super, then no one is" idea that troublingly had Rand acolytes embracing The Incredibles and establishes Bird's worldview as joyously egalitarian.

Rather formulaic movie, quite obviously meant for children without much nuance or surprise for adults, but pretty enjoyable nonetheless if you just go along for the ride. The animation is undeniably stunning, and it's always good to see (or hear) Patton Oswalt. I felt it lost some steam at times and could have been trimmed in places. An uninspiring but solid effort from Pixar.

I'm completely unflinching in my opinion that Ratatouille is Pixar's best movie and (judging by recent efforts) probably always will be. I've seen it nothing less than a dozen times and it's a contender for my favorite animated movie period. It's certainly the most beautiful, with the animation portraying the magic and romance of France greater than anything I've seen in a live-action film. Everything about Ratatouille is so warm that it makes me want to live like few other things can.

It's too easy to cook up culinary puns for this review but it really does feel like a ton of ingredients are thrown in the pot here: to a classic action-comedy base are added two narrative perspectives (only one where Remy can talk), multiple character dynamics (father/son, rats/humans, Remy/Ghost-eau), a commentary on art and its accessibility/enjoyment, and tiny rats cooking, which is a delight to watch in and out of the hat. The completed dish is very enjoyable, if maybe a bit too flavourful?

Standard Pixar goodness. Remove the rat-and-chef trappings, and it's an unoriginal story that's been told many times before, but I found it refreshing that this film didn't suffer from the flaws of other tellings of this story. For example, I was dreading a long, drawn out arc where the chef's taking the credit goes too far and drives a wedge between him and the rat; luckily it wasn't too bad.

In traditional Pixar fashion, it's all cute and funny and full of hilarious physical comedy. I wasn't enthralled by the story, especially that random forced romantic arc, but I can't really find a reason to hate this movie. Being a parisian since birth, I've got to appreciate how respectful this appropriation of french culture was - very tactful and well done even though it's obviously full of blatantly american touches. Won't lie, I was bored at times, but it objectively is a good movie.

Ratatouille is absolutely worth watching. It has gorgeous animation, a very solid cast of voice actors, a ton of heart, and an inspirational -- albeit very simple and predictable -- story that's enjoyable to watch for both kids and adults. It's another winner from Pixar, and ends up being a very fun watch. While I laughed at the premise, I wasn't afterward. Remy became a character to root for. You have no reason not to watch Ratatouille, even if it would have benefited from stronger villains.
