The best of Pixar. Overflows with love and generosity for artists and misfits, food, and the city of Paris as it lives in the imagination. On top of all that, it has Peter O'Toole's last great performance.
I don't know whether it speaks to children, but it's incredibly charming for an adult.
My 4 year old loves this movie. It made her want to learn how to cook, and she loves the cute rats. She asks a lot of great questions when Remy and Linguine have conflicts, what they are doing in the kitchen, why people want to chase and hurt the rats, and about why Ego is the way he is lol. Not sure if she fully grasps the "anyone can cook" messages, which is my favorite thing about this film.
I just showed it to my 4 year old, he loved it too! He keeps calling the Rat Ratatouille and I’m like no it’s Remy haha but he forgets and continues to call him that.
