I praise you, my Ratatouille. May the world remember your name

“The average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so.” A part of Ego’s monologue that some members of the Cartoon Community need a great reminder of, especially the Illumination detractors.

Anton Ego, cinema's greatest critic character. God bless the late Peter O'Toole, what an actor!

I absolutely love this movie. Brad Bird has proven time and time that he can create amazing animation especially with Pixar and this film was no acception, the story is very well done and a very powerful message showing that anyone can cook, the animation is absolutely gorgeous especially with how they managed to bring the location of Paris to life, and the characters are very well done and all have a very fun personality. Overall, Ratatouille is easily one of the best films from Pixar and easily one of my favorite Pixar films, definitely in the top 10 for me, and it is absolutely one of Brad Bird's best films he’s done.

Glad you review Ratatouille since this is one of my favorite top 10 Pixar films of all time. I watch this many times as a kid before until growing up from a teen to an adult where I haven’t watch much since until last month when you’re gonna review this one. The movie is excellent with a terrific story, great animation that holds up well, well written characters, good humor, fantastic direction from Brad Bird, memorable score from Michael Giacchino, well meaning message, excellent cooking scenes, and top notch voice acting such as Patton Oswalt, Brad Garrett, the late Ian Holm, and Peter O’Toole from Lawrence of Arabia which I didn’t know it was him before doing some research and seen Lawrence of Arabia when I got it on 4K as part of the Columbia classic films last year so it great to have him on board as a meaningful critic. I still love this film and I hoped one day I’ll get it on 4K since I still have the DVD as of now as it remains one of my favorite from Pixar to this day.

At least isn’t that 2010 film starring Jack Black. I’ve seen Fleischer’s version of Gulliver’s Travels on Netflix a long time ago, while not faithful to the original novel by Jonathan Swift, it’s way better than the Jack Black film.

I know this may sound harsh, but I am kind of glad The Iron Giant didn’t do well at the box-office box during its original release. If it had succeeded and had more marketing, I don’t think Ratatouille would be the acclaimed animated film it is still considered today considering Brad Bird would have never left Warner Bros. Feature Animation and Jan Pinkava would have still been the director and considering the troubles the film had during its production before Brad Bird took over and saved the film, without him, the film could have been similar to the previous film Cars, an average at best animated film short of the critical streak of the previous films. I know it sucks that Iron Giant flopped at the back box-office, but if it means that Ratatouille becomes one of Pixar’s best animated films with having a fan-made Tik-Tok musical dedicated to it made during the pandemic for the Broadway professionals that couldn’t perform during the summer with Broadway closed last year and a review by Schaffrillas Productions on how it’s Pixar’s Magnum Opus, then I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Thank God, Brad Bird saved the film from its production troubles it was having under Jan Pinkava’s direction. If he hadn’t, I don’t think Ratatouille would have been one of the Pixar’s acclaimed animated films or much of a cultural phenomenon as last year proved with the Tik-Tok musical and Schaffrilla Production’s review of the film.

Rip to Brian Dennehy, Ian Holm and Peter O’Tool who were all great in their respective roles in this movie. Also I’ve had this theory for a while now that Skinner killed Gustau to gain ownership of his restaurant that’s why Skinner felt threatened when it was revealed that Linguine was Gustau’s son and it would’ve been really easy for Skinner to kill Gustau since we see in Skinners office a picture of the two of them so it’s heavily implied that they not only knew each other but used to work with each other and as for the whole thing about Gustau dying because of Egos review? That was a cover story by Skinner to make himself look innocent. But anyway that’s just a theory I came up with so you can take it as you will, as far as the next review goes I honestly have no idea
