Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
As good a film as Pixar has ever put out, Ratatouille is a frantic, innovative movie, boasting some of the finest quality animation ever put on the screen.

Ratatouille tells the story of wannabe-chef Remy The Rat, who becomes drawn into the mantra of legendary cook Gusteau, that anyone can cook. The deceased Gusteau’s ghostly image appears to Remy, and guides him to his restaurant, whose standards have been slipping since his death. Remy, through the manipulation of a lowly restaurant worker called Linguini, soon starts secretly cooking the food, and this unusual set up proves to be a trove of treasures that Pixar carefully picks through.

Ratatouille’s trick is to tie its cutting edge animation techniques to old-school essentials. At times harking back to the frenetic style you’d expect of Chuck Jones, it threads an original narrative through its story, which itself is packed with memorable characters (none more so than Peter O’Toole’s superbly-voiced restaurant critic). It perhaps runs a little too long, but it’s so well-written and so lavishly entertaining that it’s a churlish complaint to have.

For in an era of cynically-produced family movies, Ratatouille is really something special. With an appeal that spreads across generations, and a quality that puts it right up there with Pixar’s finest, it’s an outstanding piece of cinema, and one set to be enjoyed for many, many years. Unmissable. --Simon Brew

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Tasty Treat
Remy, an ambitious rat has always dreamed of making it as a top chef in France and after an accident, he winds up in the French Capital and helps nervous chef Linguini to create a name for himself.

Pixar have become the biggest animated company in the world, joining forces with Disney just after the millennium and though the companies have had their differences, there can be no question that they can still make fine cinematic viewing, which is evident with this 2007 Oscar winning animation. ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - If you ever wanted to know how to make a ratatoille... from a rat!
A brilliantly simple plot, which pokes fun at critics and restaurants, contains some neat little scenes, and challenges perceptions for all.

You know the plot - Remy the rat, blessed with a fine pallete, has dreams of becoming a chef, but being a rat, the bane of kitchens everywhere, he's got a problem. His family disapprove too, but when disaster comes to their lair, Remy finds himself washed away to Paris and chances on a restarant kitchen. Through various adventures, he ends up serving a ...

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Mediocre at best
this kept the kids amused for a while, but ultimately was a cookie cutter family movie and once was more than enough for all of us.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Brilliant
This must be one of the best animated films ever made. The animation is amazing. The story. A rat who wants to be more, and sets out to achieve this through a twist in circumstances, is crazy, but then anything is possible in animation.
The plot draws you in, involves you and holds your attention for the entire length of the film. Brilliant. If you haven't watched this yet, don't hesitate. Recommended for young and not so young alike.
The extras are good too with an animated story on rats through ... Read More:



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Another animated classic for the whole family.
Brad Bird weaves his magic again with this charming peasant done good story. The fact that a story about a rat cooking michelin-rated food actually made it to production gives an idea of how good the story and animation had to be. And they're better.

The scene with the food critic tasting the dish is one of the most memorable scenes ever produced.
