A Rat's story

Rating: 8/10 (18 March 2012)

I am not a big fan of animated movies but Ratatouille is so well made that I actually got caught up in the adventures of Remy the rat and lead character of the story.
Remy has a highly developed sense of smell and taste leading him to believe that his destiny is to be one of the great chefs in the world. The problem is, of course, that no one will hire a rat to work in the kitchen of a restaurant. The obstacle is overcome one day by Remy hiding and passing on instructions to a human cook. The reviews for the food are tremendous and eventually the rodent becomes a big shot in the world of the animal kingdom. Pixar uses the technology as well as any studio today, and with an entertaining plot, it is easy to get caught up in Ratatouille's cartoon world.
