A super bugs story.

Rating: 8/10 (8 July 2015)

Disney and Pixar studios team up once again and brought us an imaginative adventure story about a misfit ant named Flik, who accidentally drops the food offerings his colony gathers for the fierce gang of grasshoppers, leaving his fellow ants to gather twice as much food for the fierce bugs. To help his colony rid their land of the hopping menace, Flik tries to seeks out warrior bugs that would help out but, instead, he unknowingly returns to the colony with a circus crew.
This is filmed in brilliant and colorful computer animation - very detailed and realistic as it cleverly shows a bug's world from their point of view. The story is full of adventure, from Flik running into the flea circus to the ants trying to defend themselves from the grasshoppers. The movie is also filled with comedy; you will have to watch the movie to appreciate the bug humor and, of course, it's typical for a Disney animated movie that the filmmakers would make the ladybug character a guy in the story.
There are some slow plot points in the first half of the movie, especially during Flik's solo scenes, but the plot picks up steam during the second half, especially when the circus and ants conjure up the plan to defeat the grasshoppers. It is also notable that the film concentrates on redemption, endurance and never-say-die attitude of the ant colony, proving that even the "little guys" are ferocious and determined.
Just like the Toy Story movies, this animated film will make you suspend your disbelief and expand your imagination.
