Summary
Animated comedy from Pixar, the studio behind Toy Story and The Incredibles. A young country rat comes to Paris, against all family advice, to seek his destiny as the best chef in all of France, but as a rodent is de trop in a restaurant, he has to let a hopeless cook take the credit for his culinary brilliance.

Review
A star rating of 4 out of 5.
Karen Krizanovich
The winner of the 2007 best animated feature Oscar from Pixar (home of Toy Story, Monsters, Inc and The Incredibles) measures up to, if not quite surpasses, the best of that animation stable. Here, a country rat with a gift for haute cuisine ends up saving the bacon - actually, the soup - of the garbage boy at Paris's finest restaurant. Together, they set out to fulfil each other's culinary dreams. Though it's a wee bit on the long side, this fast-moving, wholesome comedy nevertheless has some absolutely brilliant comic turns, the highlight being Peter O'Toole as Anton Ego, the tough, bitter food critic (who, rather disconcertingly, looks like Will Self). Working with a tight, well-judged script and sensational animation that makes you want to go home and cook - as well as be nicer to rodents - director Brad Bird delivered the best family comedy of that year.
