Fun, detailed and hilarious story about an ant who wants to make a difference.

Rating: 10/10 (6 June 2011)

A real classic in animated children's movies, full of wit, humor, great characters and a story that appeals to all ages. Full of quotable lines and excellent voice talent, and one of the funniest "outtake" reels ever created.
The tale of a quirky inventor trying to make a difference for his colony is heart-warming and lesson filled. It strikes a chord in us all, the powerful need to make an impact, improve the world around us and better the lives of those we care about... especially when nobody believes you can do it! The humor has broad appeal. From some slapstick for the kids (Flick crashes into the river bed rocks)... to inside "bug humor" (the grasshopper with a sign "Kid pulled my wing's off") for those who understand more about the bug world. It's got jokes throughout the entire movie... even up to Heimlich sprouting little wings and saying "From up here you all look little ants." haha Not only are the visuals strikingly real in many places, but to take things down to the world of bugs creates a fascinating perspective on things. From raindrops that are like bombs to the "city life" of a country house's junk pile. "This stop, Deeeeead Rat!" Yes! All this, and more, from a "kid's movie." One mark of a great movie is that you watch it again and again over the years, and still manage to enjoy it every time you see it. That has certainly been the case for me with "A Bug's Life."
