Rat-a-too-ee... La-ta-two-ee...

Seems like most countries have different versions of the movie poster. I found the chinese one, which is pretty cool. Decided to use this against those with knives pointing at poor Remy.

The film, Ratatouille, is amazing. Seriously. One word. BRILLIANT. Period.

OK, mmm.. I realized I can't stop there at "Period.". So.. hahaa... I have to go on about how good this movie is, particularly since I have enjoyed it so much!! This is one film that has not only simultaneously touched me, excited me, thrilled me, amused me, enlightened me, it is also a master piece of wonderworking animation. I lurvvvvvvvvvvveeee it!

Something clicked in me (just as most movies I watch do a lot of the time). Even from the little rat itself, Remy, it's telling me to live that dream you always believe in but not forgetting where you come from. Be a chef. Anyone can cook. Even a rat can. So can I.

Worth it, worth it... even for the most expensive weekend ticket, it is worth every penny!

My rating: 4.5/5


Some additional insight!

Quoted from Wikipedia:
"Ratatouille is a traditional French Provençal stewed vegetable dish. The word Ratatouille comes from "touiller," which means to toss food. Ratatouille originated in the area around present day Nice. It was, originally, a poor farmers dish, prepared in the summer with fresh summer vegetables. The original Ratatouille Nicoise did not contain eggplant (which would not have been available during the same time period as the other vegetables used). Instead, it used only zucchini (courgettes), tomatoes, green and red peppers, onion, and garlic. The dish known today as Ratatouille adds eggplant to that mixture."
