As Seen On Screen

As Seen on Screen offers readers a chance to see film reviews for the everyman, without all of the clutter and nonsense fed to the average filmgoer. Plain, straitforward, to the point. That's our goal. We offer a diverse catalogue of which to choose from, from silent comedies to modern superhero films. Final note: this is a family friendly blog. We only review films rated G through PG-13, plus the unrated films of yesteryear. So if this sounds like your cup of tea, pull up a crumpet and enjoy. Thanks for your support!

     Ratatouille
2007  G  ANIMATED  1h 51min
CAST— Patton Oswalt, Lou Romano
MUSIC— Michael Giacchino  DIRECTOR— Brad Bird

     Another Disney/Pixar co-venture that falls short of greatness. The idea sounds like a candidate for a winner: a plucky young rat finds that he’s not suited for a rat-like existence; he was born to be a chef. After infiltrating a high-class Parisian restaurant he helps a low-class janitor become a world-renowned culinary master. Sounds worthy of a few chuckles, right? Wrong. The animation is fine, of course, but really what good are talking rats if they only speak through nine percent of the movie? Oscar-winner for Best Animated Feature.
OUR RATING— **
