Não há absolutamente nada em Ratatouille que possa ser considerado um erro. O roteiro é afiado, os personagens são profundos, a animação é belíssima e a trilha sonora é memorável. É um filme que pode ser visto várias vezes sem perder seu brilho.A Pixar tem várias obras-primas no currículo, mas Ratatouille é uma das mais especiais. Poucos filmes conseguem capturar a essência de um sonho com tanta paixão e autenticidade. Uma verdadeira celebração do talento, da dedicação e da arte de cozinhar.
Ratatouille is an animated masterpiece that truly earns its place as one Pixar's finest films. Directed by Brad Bird, this 2007 cinematic gem weaves an enchanting tale that will delight audiences of all ages.
The story follows Remy, a gifted rat with a passion for cooking who dreams of becoming a chef in a Parisian restaurant. He finds an unlikely ally in Linguini, a bumbling young garbage boy, and together they concoct a culinary scheme that will shake the foundations of the culinary world.
What elevates Ratatouille to the status of a true classic is its impeccable storytelling, captivating characters, and stunning visuals. The animation is a feast for the eyes, painting the streets and kitchens of Paris with meticulous detail and breathtaking beauty. From the lush green fields where Remy forages for ingredients to the bustling heart of Gusteau's, every environment is crafted with love and precision.
But it's the characters that truly make Ratatouille shine. Remy, voiced by Patton Oswalt, is a complex and deeply relatable protagonist. His passion for cooking and his struggles to connect with others resonate deeply, and you can't help but root for this endearing rat. Linguini, voiced by Lou Romano, is equally endearing, his awkwardness and earnest nature making him the perfect foil to Remy's ingenuity.
The supporting cast is equally well-developed, with Anton Ego's razor-sharp wit and Gusteau's joyful philosophy adding depth and nuance to the story. The character designs are equally impressive, each one uniquely expressive and bursting with personality.
The film's themes of pursuing your passion, embracing your uniqueness, and the power of friendship and teamwork are woven throughout the story with grace and subtlety. It's a story that inspires us to believe in ourselves and in the power of creativity and collaboration.
The voice acting is superb, with each actor bringing their character to life with nuance and emotion. The dialogue is witty and engaging, filled with clever culinary puns and heartwarming moments of connection.
But what truly sets Ratatouille apart is its love letter to the culinary world. The film celebrates the art of cooking and the joy of sharing a beautifully prepared meal with others. The dishes depicted in the film are drool-worthy and mouthwatering, making it a true feast for the senses.
All in all, Ratatouille is a masterpiece that deserves a perfect 10/10 score. It's a film that enchants, inspires, and will leave you hungry for more. With its impeccable storytelling, unforgettable characters, and stunning animation, Ratatouille stands out as one of Pixar's best and a timeless classic that will be savored for generations to come.
If there is a genius working in Hollywood today, it's animation director Brad Bird, who tops the delightful "The Incredibles" with arguably the finest 'toon in the Pixar canon, Ratatouille.
Ratatouille is delicious. In this satisfying, souffle-light tale of a plucky French rodent with a passion for cooking, the master chefs at Pixar have blended all the right ingredients -- abundant verbal and visual wit, genius slapstick timing, a soupcon of Gallic sophistication -- to produce a warm and irresistible concoction that's sure to appeal to everyone's inner Julia Child.
Pixar stuffs a foodie rat under the toque of a wannabe chef with one foot (barely) in the door at a fading gourmet restaurant. The rodent was weaned on cooking TV shows, the human represents the end of a celebrity chef’s bloodline, and together they manage just enough culinary magic to raise a ruckus in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower.
Ratatouille’s scenery is enchanting and its food is mouth-watering, but its core ingredients are rather thin. Neither Remy (the rat) nor Alfredo (the man-child) enjoy an especially deep or involved character arc, two cases of WYSIWYG given flesh, and Pixar seems to recognize this, crowding the scenery with all manner of half-hearted side dishes to compensate. I was hardly surprised to learn of a shakeup behind the scenes, with original director and screenwriter Jan Pinkava ousted in favor of then-ascendant studio bigwig Brad Bird. Despite the late shift, this still feels like an unfocused draft. The technical team does its job well - Alfredo’s physical comedy is riotous, Remy’s all-too-limited tasting scenes are bright and imaginative, the city and kitchen both look gorgeous - but it all feels a little wasted without a more substantial base.
I recognize and appreciate the irony of critiquing a movie in which a snobby food critic is the big bad. Wish I could say that my second viewing, and first in around a decade, could’ve provided me with the same kind of big revelation that my on-screen counterpart enjoys. Instead, I must confess that Ratatouille still lives in precisely the same place I left it. Enjoyable but very light, and a far cry from the kind of potent, accomplished material we expected of Pixar at the time.
My preceding review from 2014: One of the few Pixar movies I hadn't yet seen. Like each of their other films, this is witty, beautiful and genuine, but in the end feels like light fare compared to some of the studio's masterworks. It doesn't have the suspense of The Incredibles, the heart of Up or the scale of Wall-E, for example, but that's not to say I didn't enjoy it.
The script enjoys a few big, family-friendly laughs, the animation shows some real inspiration (I appreciated the visualizations of competing/combining flavors) and it gets points for the unique setting, but it never really finds that essential moment where everything shifts into overdrive.
Ah, well. My least favorite Pixar effort is still better than most of the competition.
I honestly walked away from this feeling largely indifferent. The plot doesn't do anything unexpected, The characters are typical tropes. TBH, I just didn't care for this movie at all.
By far one of the weakest recent animation films. The story is predictable and the script is banal without a hint of cleverness. Great for 10 year olds and Disney sycophants.
