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

 a silly movie November 17, 2008
James P. Anderson (Lynchburg, VA United States)
Very entertaining Pixar movie, just like most of the others. There were some great scenes. We loved the lightning scene on the roof.
One of Disney's & Pixar's best yet November 16, 2008
Michael K. Smith (Gonzales, Louisiana)
I've long been of two minds about Disney animated films -- they're often overwritten, sappy, and don't come even close to the fairy tales on which they claim to be based -- but this one is indeed very enjoyable, as shown by the Academy Award it won as best of the year. The story line is original, too: Remy is a French country boy with the makings of a great chef, but there's one big problem. He's a rat. Having found himself in Paris at the restaurant of his late hero, Chef Gusteau, Remy meets up with Linguini, the restaurant's new scullery lad, who has zero cooking talent. But by combining the rat's genius in the kitchen with the young man's human-ness (and his ability to be puppet-controlled by having his hair judiciously yanked beneath his toque), they set Paris on its ear and attract the attention of the city's greatest food critic, Anton Ego (the voice of Peter O'Toole). The characterizations are terrific, the dialogue is fun (especially Lou Romano as Linguini), and the humor is generally subtle. And, like nearly all successful "kid's films," it also has a lot for adults; my six-year-old granddaughter and I both enjoyed it.
My Second-Favorite Film of 2007 November 12, 2008
David M. Ballew (Burbank, CA)
"Ratatouille" is a masterpiece, plain and simple. Not even the presence of the mouth-foaming half-wit Janeane Garofalo can spoil it, and that's saying something. But the addition of Blu-Ray to the home experience of "Ratatouille" can only enhance it, and does. I give this disc my highest recommendation.
Best Disney/Pixar Movie Ever! October 27, 2008
Bare No More (Clearwater, FL, USA)

"Ratatouille" is simply (in my opinion) the best Disney/Pixar movie ever made. The idea that anyone (no matter who or what they are) can do whatever they put their mind to is very inspiring. The characters are bright, funny, and full of personality. This movie made me want to cook and I look at rodents very differently :)
