RATATOUILLE DVD Review

RATATOUILLE
ROG’S VIEWPOINT - 4 CAMS

RATED G

Remy (the voice of Patton Oswalt), a young rat living in a Paris bistro, dreams of becoming a chef in a five-star restaurant. Fate intervenes in the form of a restaurant garbage boy named Linguini (voiced by Lou Romano). Together, the unlikely pair cook up a scheme to attain their goals. “Ratatouille” is a delightful concoction for all ages. This latest creation from Pixar is among the studio’s finest. Rich in detail, the visually stunning animation is the most advanced CGI work to date. Even the cartoon food dishes are tantalizing. Presenting an inventive story , filled with unforgettable characters, director Brad Bird nearly surpasses his work on “The Incredibles”. The talented voice cast makes you focus on the characters rather than the star personalities. Janeane Garofalo is chef Colette, who has eyes for Linguini. Cruel head chef Skinner is brought to life by Ian Holm. Peter O’Toole is the hard-to-please restaurant critic Anton Ego - the animators chance to skewer critics everywhere. Pixar favorites Brad Garrett, as the spirit of legendary chef Auguste Gusteau, and John Ratzenberger, as the panicky waiter Mustafa, add to the delight. In the grand tradition of Walt Disney, values of family, friends and life’s goals are woven throughout this fabulous entertainment. Before the feature, another amazing Pixar short, “Lifted” (an alien abduction tale), is screened. But the real reason to attend is the main event. “Ratatouille” is a gourmet feast.
DVD Extras: A delightful new animated short "Your Friend The Rat", the animated theatrical short "Lifted", behind-the-scenes featurette and deleted scenes.
