Brad Bird delivers another masterpiece.

Rating: 10/10 (23 November 2007)

Walking into a movie about a rat who wants to cook, my interests were low. How could Brad Bird reach the dizzying, ecstatic heights of his first two masterful films, Iron Giant & The Incredibles?
By going in a completely different direction.
Ratatouille is without a doubt one of the best movies of 2007, and the best animated feature since...well, The Incredibles. Bird's storytelling is flawless, combining charming, lovable characters with a multi-faceted plot that keeps going in sharp, new directions, concluding with an ending that will leave you in a state of cinematic afterglow.
No one should give much away, suffice to say, Ratatouille is a beautiful, heart-warming work of art that should be enjoyed before a great meal. Rarely has a film so perfectly captured the joy and artistry of cooking.
If you love food, film, and the passion behind art of any kind, or if you love films like Big Night, Ratatouille will knock your socks off and leave your mouth watering.
Perfect for the family, or an audience of any age. Ratatouille is Brad Bird's third masterpiece, and will be remembered fondly for years and years to come...
