Movie: Ratatouille
If you were hoping for a cooking programme, go watch Jamie Oliver on Discovery's Travel and Living Channel. If you were looking for witty humour, awesome animation and a truly remarkable storyline, then do not give this movie a miss!
This two-hour movie brings the viewers' attention to issues on friendship, trust, betrayal, sacrifice, and more. Above that, it also sets you thinking about our perception about what is right or wrong, about expectations - of us from ourselves and others, and to an extent, about social norms.
The story might take quite awhile to develop, with the first section being slightly draggy. However, the development was quite consitent after that, all the way till the end. Slightly rushed, but better than extending the showtime. Overall, the script was well written, with nothing left hanging.
An entertaining movie for everyone of al ages. Quite alot to be learnt from the movie, especially so for the more matured audience. Touches on many different issues, usually up to the viewers to go think about and interpret. I'm sure everyone can get something out of it, and that would probably be different for each individual.
