    I loved it!!!!

    This one seemed more adult than other Pixar films. Lots of french cinema allusions.

    Has anybody taken kids to see it? What was their reactions?

    My brother in law took his 10 and 8 year olds to see it and they weren't impressed. They love Pixar movies so I was surprised. My brother in law loved it.

    I saw it only because Transformers was sold out, I was a idiot for thinking I could get a ticket 10 mins before the movie started, we ended up watching ratatouille and I was surprised on how good it was, I'd recommend it.

    The storyline is more mature than most Pixar movies. I'm not surprised that kids aren't blown away by it, unless they are really into the behind the scenes of fancy restaurants.

    My daughters (9 and 8) absolutely loved it. They can't wait to own a copy of the movie. I asked them what they thought about it and they said that "some parts were funny and some parts were serious." But they keep saying that they liked it a whole lot. They found the whole hair puppetry thing suprising and they understood the moral of the story.

    GREAT GREAT film!!! I loved it. It was by far the most fun film I've seen in a LONG time. I had a smile from the begining to the end on my face.

    Pixar has a different style and feel to Japanese movies, and I thought ratatouille was a good movie. Much better than Cars or the last Shrek.

    I took my 8 and 6 year old daughters...They loved it, the only criticism was the length.

    They are pumped up about Harry Potter. That's next.

    I loved it. I thought it was in the top 3 of Pixar flicks for sure.

    Maybe I'm wrong, but was it implied the great chef may have had "help"?...

    I saw this with the kids and it was alright...Nothing to die for and a little long...My top three Pixar movies are:

    1) Toy Story

    2) The Incredibles

    3) Monster's Inc./Bug's Life (I know but I loved them both)

    I did not care for the incredibles at all. I personally thought it was stupid.

    I reank them

    1) Toy Story

    2) Ratatoille

    3) Finding Nemo

    I thought it was better than Transformers, but not as good as Live Freeor Die Hard
