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

5.0 out of 5 stars Ratatouille, 27 Dec 2007
By Mrs. J. Baker "Baker" (Sy) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This was the best family film I saw all year in 2007. What seems at first a simple story about a rat who wants to cook, turns out in fact to be something more, deeper and more subtle. It was funny, charming, and also very touching. The animation was truly stunning and both my husband and children aged 5 and 8 loved it. Wonderful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious, novel and visually stunning, 11 Mar 2008
This is my favourite Disney Pixar movie to date. Not just for kids, this movie is 'good fun for all the family'. Bright, colourful and entertaining...the children will love it. For the adults: a bit of sarcastic humour and a lot laughs.

I saw this at the cinema - much to the despair of many parents who seemed to think my utter amusement was disturbing? - and I promptly purchased this limited edition with Pixar shorts.

Since I can't begin to explain how funny this movie (and selected shorts) is/are, I can describe to you how impressive the graphics and overall concept were. The rats move like you'd expect; trust me, if you've ever seen a rodent move you'll be impressed by the 'true to life' depiction. I was pleased to see that, though the rats could talk to each other, the humans could not understand the rats...which leads to some novel interaction between our two main characters.

If you enjoyed The Incredibles, Monsters Inc., or Over the Hedge....you'll love this!

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant and touching, 15 Feb 2008
I was less than enthusiastic when my husband brought this one home, but what a magical few hours it turned out to be. I adored this tale of Remy, his wonderful clan, acerbic father, genial, dotty brother and all. The human characters were equally as warmly portrayed, genuinely likeable. The villains had a touch of style, too. And there were many moments that had myself and my husband laughing out loud, some of them very subtle. (I loved the fact that the rats, when threatened, ran TO the boats, for example. A fun twist on rats leaving sinking ships!) I even cried at the happy ending. One we'll watch again. Treat yourselves!
