Unlike all the other rats, Remy won't eat just any piece of garbage lying around he pines for more unique and expansive flavors, and actually has the crazy idea to try preparing his food with herbs and spices.
But for those with a more refined palette, Ratatouille is a paltry dish.īoth the film and the game tell the story of Remy, a rat living in France who dreams of becoming a master chef-a dream that doesn't quite jibe with the others in his rat colony, especially his father.
It's not an awful game by any means, and young kids might get a kick out of a few of the minigames and story sequences. Like other recent games based on computer-animated flicks, Ratatouille for the PlayStation 2, GameCube, PC, Xbox, and Wii is a simple, kid-friendly platformer that loosely ties into the plot of the film and is generally unchallenging and, ultimately, unsatisfying. So it's a bit disappointing and slightly ironic that the video game based on the film has more in common with the cheap junk food the film decries than any well-prepared, savory dish. At the same time, the evil chef, Skinner, is conspiring to turn now-deceased master chef Auguste Gusteau's image into a mascot for cheaply made frozen cuisine, a plot that the heroes of the film have to thwart. The hero, a rat named Remy, is always telling his brother to eschew eating any random garbage he finds in favor of working to find something more flavorful, and ultimately, satisfying. But even though this Pixar favorite spreads plenty of optimism while telling an extraordinary under-rodent story, there are plenty of aspects a young audience might miss - and here are things only adults notice in Ratatouille.One of the key themes of Pixar's latest animated film, Ratatouille, is not settling for junk food-literally. This magical rat (after all, he can understand humans, is lauded for his smelling abilities, and can cook) not only changes his own life, but he betters the lives of his family and friends, such as Alfredo Linguini and Colette Tatou.
Remy is far different from his family, as his four-legged companions eat for sustenance and Remy eats for taste, pleasure, and passion.
Even if you get over the fact that rats can't follow their dreams, rodents are a nightmare scenario for restaurant owners. But against all odds, Remy relocates to Paris and becomes a magician in the kitchen, teaching audiences that a great artist can come from anywhere. And yeah, that's an incredibly strange plot. Set in Paris, Ratatouille focuses on a rat named Remy who follows his dreams of becoming a chef. Ratatouille manages to take an odd tale and spread a beautiful message.
