Ratatouille 2007


Ratatouille

     Remy dreams of becoming a great French chef in spite of his family’s doubts and his biggest drawback is that he is a rat.  He has an exceptional nose and he appreciates the finer foods in life.  He is suddenly swept away by the sewers of Paris and finds himself under a restaurant formerly owned by his culinary hero, Auguste Gusteau.  At first, Remy doesn’t think he has a chance to work at this respected establishment.  He helps the newly hired garbage boy correct the seasonings in the soup du jour and he’s on his way to a career.  There are many mishaps and missteps along his path.
      I have seen this before but I forgot how funny it really is.  Remy controls the garbage boy in cooking by pulling his hair underneath his chef hat.  The current chef thinks he keeps seeing a rat in the kitchen but how can that be?  4* (I really liked this movie)
