Ratatouille

The other day I went over to a friends house to hang out. We ended up finding this cute movie to watch on T.V. My friend had watched it and loved seeing it so I was really excited to see it too. I had already seen some of the previews so I knew what the movie was about, but once I started watching it the movie was just so easy to enjoy. It felt like one of those movies that anyone of any age would like.


As the movie started off I noticed that the graphics and animation were very good. Movies just keep getting better and better in that field. I liked how they still kept a little cartoon character feel rather than trying to make it as realistic as possible. The plot is such an easy one to follow and it is great to see the relationship between the rat, remy, and Linguini.

Remy is a rat that wants to be a French chef. He dreams of it and has studied to perfect his desire. Linguini has gotten a job at this restaurant and has no idea how to cook, but he is trying to prove himself to keep his job. In many turns of events Remy is discovered by Linguini when he tries to help him perfect a dish that has turned into a disaster. Linguini ends up saving Remy’s life when he is discovered by the head chef. You watch as their relationship grows and develops. There is still that uneasy feeling between them at first. Remy doesn’t know if Linguini will just end up killing him and Linguini doesn’t know if Remy just wants food and then he will leave him in the end. The movie portrays their feelings that they go through very well on their faces and you start to see them trust each other more and more.

To cook decadent dishes you need the right skills and the right knowledge. Linguini does not even have the slightest hint of these skills when he meets Remy. Slowly though they learn how to work together using Linguini’s body which Remy controls by pulling his hair. They train to perfect their skills so Linguini can have a successful career and Remy can fulfill his desire to cook and eat all the food he can get.

There are certain instances that test their relationship that they have built with each other and the head cook is always on the lookout to discover Linguini’s secret as to why he is cooking so well. There is an even greater turn of events that change the whole restaurant. This movie was a very cute, enjoyable movie. All ages could watch this movie and laugh along with the delightful story.
