You won't be disappointed!

Great visuals, story delivers no surprises

I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Over all the movie was amazing, but there was one major gripe. The rat was just too hot, I was constantly distracted I couldn't focus!

The first thing one has to do here is get beyond the idea of a rat becoming an accomplished French chef. Having spent my entire career in the food industry, and knowing that even one mouse dropping can fail a business's health and safety inspection, I had to cast a wary eye for this animated feature. But beyond the initial hesitation, the story turned out to be fairly creative, and I enjoyed all the clever animated sequences the artists came up with to make the story work. My best takeaway was how to tell if bread is fresh by it's 'symphony of crackle'. That didn't sound like a very technical term to me, but melodious enough to make me remember it the next time I'm in a bake shop. When Remy's creation brings food critic Anton Ego all the way back to his own Mom's home cooking, it served to make Remy the toast of Paris cuisine, proving that at least in the world of Pixar, anyone can cook.

Ratatouille is a great movie for the whole family! The great thing about this cinematic masterpiece is that you are guaranteed to be put in a great mood after watching. The worst part about this movie is when it end and you can't watch it anymore;(. The character development throughout the movie is stellar! Remi is just a little rat named Remi, but he has big aspirations! All that Remi wants to do is be a cook, but hes a rat XD. Remi does become a cook with a little help from the wise words of chef the spirit of Chef Gusteau, as well as using Chef Linguini. The only thing about this movie that I would change is that if they had a chef named Chef Jeff, because it sounds cool. In conclusion, everyone should see this masterpiece of a movie...show it to your man, woman, child, dog, grandma, local vendors, and shout it from the rooftops.

I love how soulful and simple this is, especially for Pixar. Sort of your basic guy-doing-something-he-shouldn't-be-able-to-do story, it's tender, funny and utterly joyous. The food animation is vibrant and enticing, and every single time we're in that bustling kitchen is a gem, especially when Remy is in the hat.
