Movie - 5.0 Prior to viewing this movie, I hadn't seen any Disney/Pixar films since Toy Story. I know, I'm out of the loop, but thank goodness I found this gem in Ratatouille. Never had I been so brought back to the joys of childhood where I could watch a movie and have it bring about so many forms of sheer joy and innocent emotion and feel like I actually was a kid again. But at the same time, I found a very subtle maturity to the story and characters of this movie as well. The amazement of cooking and food, the exotic backdrop of Paris, the silly, yet serious interactions of a rat and his handler, then the denouement of a hard-nosed food critic who rediscovered himself and reasserted the happiness of which only food can do to a person; all of these elements make for a very light-hearted comedy about what it means to find something in life that you can dedicate yourself to, pursue, and enjoy to your heart's content. In particular, I was every impressed with the script and screenplay. Remy's conscience being played by an imaginary version of Gusteau was brilliant in studying his overall character as the audience gets a clear, basic understanding of what Remy is thinking to himself. Linguini is a "lovable loser" archetype that tries so hard, but always manages to bumble things. There's a sort of coyness that makes him fun to root for and his "ambitions" are commendable, kind of like an "everyman," so I really enjoyed watching him as well. Then, there are all of the other supporting characters in Chef Skinner, Anton Ego, Collette, Remy's family, etc. that ultimately make the film one very enjoyable experience. Top that off with a great soundtrack by Michael Giacchino who captures much of the same exoticism that makes Paris so intriguing, and you've got this lovely Oscar-wining feature. Video - 5.0 Being a direct digital transfer of CG to BD, the result is flawless. Colors are vibrant with lots of yellows and golds accentuating the color palette of the kitchen at Gusteau's. Black levels and contrast are perfect in revealing all the fine detailed lines from the hugeness of Linguini's nose down to the tiny hairs and whiskers of Remy and his clan. Images are always sharp, and the image itself provides for some great example of depth and dimensionality. There are no signs of aliasing, color banding, or any other hiccups making for some beautiful shots of photography amongst the backdrop of Paris, and even some of the inner housing of Linguini's apartment, the kitchen, and the sewers. There also appear to be no signs of artificial enhancement or manipulation, making this a transfer as perfect as you can get and ready to be showcased for all. Audio - 5.0 Using an uncompressed PCM 5.1 track, Ratatouille is equally as stunning as it's video counterpart. Dialogue is clear, and directionality is particularly precise during kitchen scenes with the clanging of pots and pans, whooshing of flames, and dribbles of liquid all over the place. Music accompanies the sound effects perfectly and immerses the viewer with some wonderful and adventurous melodies that really compliment the story telling, never overdoing itself or intruding over the dialogue. LFEs are most prominent during musical numbers and when things are being chopped up. There really are no flaws with the general sound design and placement and should be enjoyable by the ears of any. Extras - 4.5 Personally, I found the extras to be very fun and informative. But the only gripe I have is that they didn't put the "making of" featurettes on as separate 25GB disc by itself. Instead of SD specials, they could've well been HD. Other than that, though, they're all very enjoyable. The Pixar animated shorts are always a nice addition, while the "rat history" as narrated by Remy and Emile served as a cute parody of how rats could be thought of under a different light (not that it'll ever happen since rats aren't as smart as this, but the effort is appreciated). Then of course there's the production segments, which continue to amaze me in how hard it really is to produce films of this caliber. I highly respect and give thanks to all the people involved in these types of projects. Overall - 5.0 The only thing that would've made this release any better is an extra disc specifically reserved for the special features. But other than that, it's an extreme delight to have watched this film for its cheery and lovable narrative about personal passion and the following of one's dreams. With immaculate A/V quality and an excellent set of extras and special features, I can't recommend this title enough for both kids and adults.

Ratatouille is a wonderful film about discovering who you are and follow your dreams no matter where you come from. As with every Pixar production, the animation is superb, the characters are compelling and the story resound with everyone. Also, the humor is great. Remy is a rat that dreams to become a chef and his opportunity comes when he meets Linguini, a garbage boy who wants to keep his job. Together, they become the finest chef in France but problems arise in the restaurant and with Remy's family that can jeopardize the whole scheme. I have to say that the best character is Linguini, it's obvious that the animators had a blast animating him because it's so funny and all his mannerisms are executed spectacularly. Themes like family, friendship, passion and more are the core of the film and everything is enveloped in a beautiful score by the great Michael Giacchino. The animation is a sight to behold. Paris looks so beautifully breathtaking and the food looks so deliciously real that you will get real hungry while watching the film. Ratatouille is Pixar's 8th triumph and one they should be very proud about. A wonderful film. Video & Audio: Ratatouille comes to BD looking absolutely fantastic. This is hardly a surprise being a Pixar film but still the transfer mesmerize. Colors jump off the screen, detail and contrast are terrific and no compression artifacts whatsoever. Simply amazing. The 5.1 uncompressed audio is also amazing with fidelity and clarity beyond your expectations. Spectacular. Bonus Material: Ratatouille comes with a nice assortment of bonus features although is not as loaded as other Pixar films. First you have a documentary "Fine food and Film" which is a conversation with director Brad Bird and top chef Thomas Keller. It's a fantastic piece where you learn how they chose their careers and how passionate they are about it. You have two great shorts "Lifted" and "Your Friend the Rat". You also have making of featurettes that deals with all the aspects of the production of the film including story, characters, music, design and more. You also have a gallery, a game, publicity material and deleted scenes. A DVD copy is also included. Closing Thoughts: Ratatouille is another Pixar Triumph that everyone should see and own. This BD is great with terrific Video & Audio quality and many hours of bonus material and comes Highly Recommended!!!

One of my all time favorite movies. I watch this all the time!

Very good

La película llegó a tiempo y en buen estado. La película una de mis favoritas de Pixar es genial, si imagen es impecable, el sonido es genial, su historia es memorable, una abrazo al corazón para los fans de la animación de Pixar, de las que hacianal principio.

Un beau classique .

Ratatouille é, sem dúvidas, uma dos filmes da Disney & Pixar que mais me encantou; é lindo, poético e tão revelador... Fico feliz que, agora, tenho essa história que faz parte de minha história. A loja me enviou um excelente produto, bem embalado, caprichado e a entrega foi satisfatória. Estou ansioso para comprar mais produtos da loja Bazani e continuar com minha coleção de DVDs e Blu-rays.

The story revolves around an unusally talented rat, whose interactions with humans is primarily as a result of this gift. It is a fun and easy going story, however improbable and implausible it may be in reality, but this is an animated movie so requires some imagination. Please don't watch it to pull out holes in the story, if that is what you want buy a hollywood blockbuster! The jokes can be shared by adults and children alike - light-hearted and enjoyable. The visuals on this are truly amazing, making the animation seem almost life like and 3D. This isn't the first animated movie I've bought, so I may be biased, but I truly believe this is great. The story is good enough to be watched more than once, the humour is subtle but funny, and the visuals will blow you away!
