Ratatouille [Blu-ray]
No Description Available.
Genre: Feature Film Family
Rating: G
Release Date: 6-NOV-2007
Media Type: Blu-RayOne key point: if you can get over the natural gag reflex of seeing hundreds of rodents swarming over a restaurant kitchen, you will be free to enjoy the glory of Ratatouille, a delectable Pixar hit. Our hero is Remy, a French rat (voiced by Patton Oswalt) with a cultivated palate, who rises from his humble beginnings to become head chef at a Paris restaurant. How this happens is the stuff of Pixar magic, that ineffable blend of headlong comedy, seamless technology, and wonder (in the latter department, this movie’s views of nighttime Paris are on a par with French cinema at its most lyrical). Director Brad Bird (The Incredibles) doesn’t quite keep all his spinning plates in the air, but the gags are great and the animation amazingly expressive–Remy’s shrugs and nods are nimbler than many flesh-and-blood actors can manage. Refreshingly, the movie’s characters aren’t celebrity-reliant, with the most recognizable voice coming from Peter O’Toole’s snide food critic. (This fellow provides the film’s sole sour note–an oddly pointed slap at critics, those craven souls who have done nothing but rave about Pixar’s movies over the years.) Brad Bird’s style is more quick-hit and less resonant than the approach of Pixar honcho John Lasseter, but it’s hard to complain about a movie that cooks up such bountiful pleasure. –Robert Horton

4 Stars Hail French Cooking!
I purchased this one for a California artist friend who just returned from sabatical in France. While there, she was told that she had a “French nose.” It seems that what she’d grown so used to seeing in the mirror had a talent! A means to detect the unique, the illusive, the earnestly sought after! Odors, well-acclaimed in French culinary circles! Crazy! I told her that the mouse in this movie had one too, suggesting she watch him brew up hilarity when her day started out dark and dreary. And to create! Soup! Enough soup to fill the house with glorious smells!

5 Stars A feast for the eyes and the soul
While this is possibly one of the most uncommon movie story lines that one could imagine, the genius of Brad Bird and Pixar turns what I would have normally expected to be a generic family movie into a feast for the eyes and the soul. The movie, the audio, and the story are all wonderfully entertaining and on Blu-Ray the quality is that of the theater itself in both visual and audio fidelity. It is a highly recommended movie for family times and there are moments in the movie which are truly moving in a way that only Pixar seems able to do. My compliments to the chefs at Pixar for delivering this one as it is a dish that is best served multiple times and goes down well at every sitting, even years after originally seeing it in theaters…
