Fun Stuff

Trivia:
To create a realistic-looking compost pile, artists photographed and researched the way real produce rots. Fifteen different kinds of produce were left to rot and then photographed, such as apples, berries, bananas, mushrooms, oranges, broccoli, and lettuce. more
Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: In the scene where Remy is correcting the soup Linguini had concocted, a 360-degree shot is used to show Remy tossing ingredients into the soup pot. Next to the stove there should be a mop that Remy had used to climb up to escape out the window previously, but is absent during the rotating shot. Instead there is a shadow of the absent mop handle that can be seen. more

A fantastic story that adds to Pixar's stellar reputation, 17 June 2007
10/10
Author: Tripper27 from Austin, TX, United States

I checked out a sneak preview of Ratatouille last night, and I must say I truly loved this movie. Everything from the animation to the score to the voice acting to the story (and especially the story) was EXCELLENT.

I don't know if it appeals to kids as much as other Pixar offerings, but this one upholds their legacy of excellence.

Casting Patton Oswalt as Remy was PERFECT. The rest of the voice cast was outstanding as well...including Pixar "house voice" John Ratzenberger. See if you can tell which guy he is without foreknowledge (as in, don't read the cast list).

Michael Giacchino's score was as perfect for this story as the award-winning one he created for "The Incredibles" and the incredible music he has created for most of J.J. Abrams' recent projects, including "Alias" and "Lost".

Even with my 3-year-old son making it really hard to concentrate, and our "we got to the theater late and had to sit up front" seats, this movie was fantastic. Everyone should go see it, even if they don't have kids.

Brad Bird - you done right by us movie fans again...Ratatouille is great!
