It makes me want to cook!

Rating: Null/10 (7 February 2008)

I give this film an 8.5 It's a delightful and enjoyable animation film. It's fun to watch. It's harmless and good for children. It's heart-warming. It has imagination and creativity. The idea of a rat who wants to be a cook is quite unique and the scenes where there are thousands of rat cooking in the kitchen is quite something to watch.
However, there's nothing else to it. The story somehow goes on the cliché theme of "Believe in yourself. You can be different.". Something Hollywood films say again and again and again,sometimes successfully, but most not. (Like in "Happy Feet", an animation that didn't impress me).
Nevertheless, this film manages to inspire me a little. The first half of the story makes me want to cook! That quote "Anyone can cook" sounds so good for someone who doesn't really know how to cook, but admire the art of cooking so much, like me. I like the way little Remy enjoys cooking. It makes me feel that eating good food is truly a pleasure on earth and cooking is something fun.
Overall, a good animation that you can enjoy watching and have a good time.
