Antz; ****

Rating: Null/10 (29 November 2004)

Antz
Z is a worker ant that doesn't fit in. He longs for a life that strays from his monotonous routine. One night in a bar he dances with a female that turns out to be the princess. In order to see her again, he switches places with one of his friends that is a soldier. Little does Z know that he will be sent into battle and start the adventure of his life. Z struggles to get the princess, defeat the evil general, and find his own identity.
Cast includes... Woody Allen, Sharon Stone, Jennifer Lopez, Sylvestor Stallone, Danny Clover and Dan Akroyd.
Antz is a smart, clever, witty and fast animated film that keeps the kids entertained by the animation and the parents entertained by the hip script. The animation is stunning and the plot is well-paced and fresh. The voices seem to fit the antz appearance which is a good thing for an animated film. Don't think just because this was released a little after A bug's life that Antz is a rip-off of it. Antz is much more entertaining and the plot is better. I want to buy this film and hope to buy it very soon.
Antz; **** out of ****
PG for language and menacing ant action.
