Ratatouille - solid fare from Pixar
Review of Ratatouille DVD by lobourse

Advantages: Great animation, good plotline, funny in parts, plenty for adults and children
Disadvantages: Can drag in places, not side-splittingly funny

Ratatouille (pronounced rat-a-too-wee) is the latest animated offering from the Disney and Pixar stable. This has been released in Belgium earlier than the UK, where it opens on October 5 , and 5 of us went to see it on a wet Saturday afternoon - 2 adults, 8- and 6-year old girls and a 3-year old boy. The title of the film is a play on words, drawing the attention to food and rats. = WHAT IS IT ABOUT? = Remy is a rat with a special talent ...
...best. To its credit, Ratatouille is not a vehicle for one particular star. = DID WE ENJOY IT? = The verdict of the adults was that it was a 6 or 7 out of ten. The film has a running time of 110 minutes (almost the same as Cars which also felt long), and in the middle it seemed to drag a bit. On the whole, we have seen worse, and the many sub-plots are tied up well, and there are some amusing bits for adults. I particularly liked the coffin-shaped ... Read review

There's a rat in ma kitchen what am I gonna do....
Review of Ratatouille DVD by ally2kc

Advantages: Witty, gentle, sincere, unique and brilliantly choreographed
Disadvantages: It will be made into a sequel and the magic will all fade away

...was understandably keen to see Ratatouille as well. After all, if a rat can do it surely it shouldn't be to difficult for a three year old… Directors: Brad Bird (also writer) and Jan Pinkava Voices: Patton Oswalt, Ian Holm, Lou Romano, Peter O'Toole, Brad Garrett, Janeane Garotalo Production Team: Disney Pixar Animation Studios Genre: Family/Comedy/Animation UK Release date: 12th October 2007 Classification: Run Time: 1hr, 50mins Summary: ...
...unrecognizable. Unlike many animated films, Ratatouille didn't have loads of whacky, out there in your face humour. It wasn't about slap-stick and easy laughs. Instead, it had a gentle feel reminiscent of early Disney Films with a twist of the continental class thrown in. The writers took their time getting to the punch line and as a result I found myself enjoying the intricate details that supported the eventual punch line. As a film, I thought ... Read review

Rat a tat tat
Review of Ratatouille DVD by KELLYLOUJ

Advantages: Great animation
Disadvantages: Story drags in some places

...first saw the trailer for Ratatouille I was desperate to watch it but it was only yesterday that I got around to actually watching it when the DVD was released. *~*The Characters*~* Remy a rat with a dream to become a Chef he differs to his friends and family in that he has a distinct smell and creativity that makes his dishes so successful but he is still a rat and he has many obstacles to overcome before he can reach his life long dream. Linguini ...
...and the humans featured in Ratatouille but if that is my only complaint the film must be pretty good. Ratatouille is most definitely a family film and I am sure that any viewer will enjoy the ending of this film and the animation once again is superb and there are definitely some funny moments in this film that work well combined with romance and friendship. Another success from Disney Pixar. Also published on Dooyoo under the same user name ... Read review

A Rat with Ambition!
Review of Ratatouille DVD by Bex727

Advantages: Highly enjoyable - Disney is Back to the good old days
Disadvantages: None- if your a Disney Buff!

...fashioned fairy tale aspect. Ratatouille however slams you right back to the hay day of animated movies for me. This can be related to the likes of Lady and the Tramp and the Aristocats! Disney is brilliant at turning animals into humans (but with fur)! The star of the show is a rat called Remy. He has an air of Woody Allen about him in the way that he speaks and thinks about things, The tale is about a young rat who wants more for himself than ...
...human's can do it, why can't I" is his atitude. Remy also has an amasing sense of smell. He wants something more for his pallet than garbage. He has discovered that he likes cooking and ingredients and whilst goin into the house (the rats live in the rafters), he reads cook books and watches a show about Gusteau! An amsing French Chef who apart from having one of the bext 5 star restaruants in Paris has a tv cookery show. remy has an amasing talent ... Read review

A Tasty Treat for the Whole Family
Review of Ratatouille DVD by gijoe1974

Advantages: excellent animation, great characters, moving story
Disadvantages: none

...your immaculate country kitchen? Ratatouille on the other hand conveys the whole fun there is behind cooking. It also manages-somewhat miraculously, to give us a taste of the food. I'm thinking of this moving scene when Anton Ego is served the simple peasant dish that is ratatouille and is transported back to his childhood. Suddenly he remembers these happier times. Just by tasting the food, all his senses have been awakened. And I think that a ...
...and older generations alike. Ratatouille is fun to watch for the whole family. It has got superb animation for a start. The recreation of Paris is detailed and accurate even though you do wonder when the film takes place (the models of cars depicted look slightly outdated). The characters are likeable down to the fierce food critic Anton Ego. I have heard negative comments from people who thought that the film lacked funny scenes. Personally I laughed ... Read review

Great Movie For All Ages
Review of Ratatouille DVD by  wass007

Advantages: Great Story, Voice Acting, Visuals and Special Features
Disadvantages: None

...Ratatouille is a fun family movie for all ages. This is a definate must buy weather on DVD or Blu-Ray. The story is about Remy (Voiced by Patton Oswalt) who enjoys food and enjoys making it. He learns how to cook from videos of his idol the late Auguste Gusteau (Voiced by Brad Garrett). After being chased Remy got split up from his family and ended up in paris. This is where he finds Gusteaus resturant and decides to help a clumsy Alfredo Linguini from losing his job afta the kitchen thought of him being a top class chef. The only catch is that Remy is a mouse. On Blu-Ray the movie looks brilliant. The disc is also filled with tons of extras like picture in picture commentary throughout the whole movie. Some behind the scenes during the movie, Deleted scenes and some short films. The disk comes in a holographics sleve which looks... Read review

Discerning rodents prefer Ratatouille...
Review of Ratatouille DVD by  PriyanPhoenix

Advantages: stunning visuals, plenty of material to keep both children and adults entertained
Disadvantages: lacks the creative originality of earlier Pixar films

...director: Brad Bird starring: Patton Oswalt, Lou Romano, Peter Sohn, Brad Garrett, Janeane Garofalo, Ian Holm, Peter O'Toole running time: 111 mins rating: U Over the past decade Pixar has been growing steadily and is now churning out a film every year, yet somehow always of impeccable quality in visuals and heart. Ratatouille is a perfect example of both these qualities but, like many of Pixar's recent releases, seems to lack the originality of their earlier work. Food-loving Remy [Patton Oswalt] is an unusual chef. Primarily because he's a rat. When he finds himself alone in Paris, separated from his family, he teams up with hapless human chef. Languine [Lou Romano] is a new employee at the restaurant created by the renowned Gusteau [Brad Garrett], who inspired Remy with his motto, "anyone can cook". With Remy's help, Languini...

Ratsody in Paris
Review of Ratatouille DVD by  afy9mab

Advantages: Amazing animation, great gag ratio and good vocal performances.
Disadvantages: Perhaps a trifle overlong.

...strings and harp for potential death. "Ratatouille" is another hit for Pixar that will be a winner with kids and adults alike. The animation is exquisite, the timing great and there are plenty of jokes and adventures to keep even the antsiest of children engaged throughout. It's even worth watching the end credits just for the naïve chalk drawing animations that are heavy on the sight gags. And the pre-feature short "Lifted" is a slapstick masterpiece. If you're looking for something the whole family can enjoy together, then this is it.... Read review
