Ratatouille Is one of the most enjoyable movies I have ever seen!

Rating: 10/10 (17 July 2007)

This Movie in my opinion, is the best movie Pixar has created to date. If not the best Animated movie ever, ONE of the best movies ever made. Now why do I make this statement? Is it childish at parts? Yes! Is it silly at times? yes! Is it a work of great movie making on just about all levels? YES! If you don't get "IT" then that's a shame. If you do then you will be entertained! Regardless where your from or background. The nuances of everything was really very intelligent and well put together If you don't laugh or find some kind of humor in this movie. You either have no sense of humor. OR...You have a giant stick up your butt! And your probably going into the theater wanting to hate it in the first place. If you don't find this film heartwarming then you must be a very sad person :( And if you can't find anything positive at all to take from this movie then your just a plain Ol' "Hater" as its said.
Mr. EGO's (Peter Ol Toole) Narrative at the end was perfect that summed up exactly what I was thinking. And there was not one Over the top stereo type personality. But yet you definitely knew who was the antagonist and protagonist.
Now this kind of story has been told before. The "You can be more in life then what every one says your lot in it should be" But I have to say it was told this time in a new and very clever way. A Rat chef! If you were a rat, How far removed would you be from that? Now If you hate the writing. You all know if most other writers that were going to make this film were just looking at how much money it could make. They Would have played it safe and It would have ended like this. (The guy would not have gotten the girl until the very end when he saves the restaurant that didn't get shut down. And the restaurant became a huge success) That's one of the things I liked about it. It didn't have THE PERFECT happy ending. There's nothing wrong with that though. But It did end happily. And there's nothing wrong with that either. I prefer a happy ending personally. But it showed you not all things turn out how you think they were going to. But then doe's anything every really do.
Now I could go on about Ratatouille. OH I could go on about how much I liked this movie and why. But I think you get where I'm coming from. And one last thing the animation and directing were Fantastic. About ten Minutes in I stopped thinking about it being an animated movie. thoroughly delightful.
