Ratatouille DVD–Family fun must have!

November 11, 2007

Last weekend, the kids and I popped popcorn and curled up to watch the DVD Ratatouille. It was released this past Tuesday, November 6th, so now you, too, can enjoy this family friendly and fun DVD!

From the award-winning team that thrilled audiences with Cars and The Incredibles comes the best-reviewed film of the year! Disney•Pixar’s Ratatouille is an incredible adventure with something for everyone. It is the perfect recipe of comedy, heartfelt storytelling, and breathtaking animation.

Experience Paris from the unique perspective of a rat named Remy, who dares to dream the impossible dream of becoming a gourmet chef in a five-star French restaurant. Undeterred by the obvious problem of trying to make it in the world’s most rodent-phobic profession, not to mention his family’s urgings to be satisfied with the usual trash-heap lifestyle, Remy’s fantasies are filled with flambés and sautés. When circumstances literally drop Remy into the Parisian restaurant made famous by his culinary hero, Auguste Gusteau (Brad Garrett), Remy finds the one thing he needs, a friend to believe in him: the restaurant’s shy, outcast garbage boy named Linguini (Lou Romano). Remy and Linguini form the most improbable partnership that will turn Paris upside down, leading them both on an incredible journey of comical twists, emotional turns and the most unlikely of triumphs, which they could never have imagined without each other.

Delicious DVD Bonus Features Include:

• Deleted Scenes – With introductions by Ratatouille’s acclaimed screenwriter/director Brad Bird.
  

• “Your Friend the Rat” – Remy and Emile star in an all-new animated short film.
  

• Fine Food and Film: A Conversation with Brad Bird and Thomas Keller – Cuisine and cinema come together in this behind the scenes look at how master chef and restaurateur Thomas Keller brought his real life expertise to the table.
  

• Lifted – In Pixar’s latest short, Oscar® nominated for Best Animated Short Film, a teen alien learns that failure is an option.
  

• More Surprises!

For those of us wanting to just have a great family night movie, this is a sure hit for all.
