The voice talent: Patton Oswalt, Ian Holm, Lou Romano, Brian Dennehy, Peter Sohn, Peter O’Toole, Brad Garrett, Janeane Garofalo, Will Arnett, Julius Callahan, James Remar, John Katzenberger and Teddy Newton. Original story by Jan Pinkava, Jim Capobianco and Brad Bird. Screenwriter and director. Brad Bird. Rated: G. Running time: 111 mins.

Though it is a Pixar feature, Ratatouille is not a kids’ film. It is a feature the entire family can enjoy. In fact, adults may get a bigger charge than the youngsters.

In a sense, Ratatouille is a story about fulfilling one’s dreams, about going beyond preconceived boundaries and following your heart.

Making the lead character a rat is a brilliant stroke. Rat and restaurants go as well together as Paris Hilton and jail cells, so the idea of watching Remy choosing herbs, spices and sauces to create various dishes is not only funny — it plays against expectations and raises the humor.

Ratatouille is loads of fun, even at nearly two hours. The time flies and the laughs are constant. This is a feature for which you may want to go back for seconds.

THIS IS A MUST BUY MOVIE TO ADD TO YOUR DISNEY COLLECTION..
