Forgive me if I seem to be on a roll talking about Pixar at the moment, however I have being wanting to write this review/blog now for a while now, so here it comes, my humble opinion on Ratatouille.Pixar have done it again! I was unable to see Ratatouille at the Cinema, due to an ongoing cough, and since have read quite a lot of criticism from critics on the net regarding the film, despite this I decided that I needed to have my own opinion on the film.CharactersAll the characters in Ratatouille are fantastic, but there is one character, that I thought was exceptionally well done, and to be honest it was a shame not to have seen more of her in the film.The character was an old lady, who appears at the beginning of the film, she has huge eyes making here rather lovable, however at the same time, the story has you not liking her as she is out to kill the rats who at this point you're getting to know and like, and in my humble opinion to create a character that you can both love and hate, is work done really well.The AnimationWow, what can I say, I was absolutely blown away by the quality of the animation in this film, being a beginner in Animation myself I really can appreciate the time and effort some of the complex kitchen scenes in this movie must have taken. The animators have also done a fabulous job on animating the rat's movements, and this has to be a result of the animators having real rats in the studios watching their every move.The StoryI'm not a writer, so I'm not wring on experience of a writer, but rather the audience here, but the storyline worked well for me, it kept me amused throughout, and found the concept idea of the Rat cooking a very clever and amusing idea, which again in my own opinion worked really well.Lifted (The New Short)It would be almost impossible for me to finish, without mentioning the new 'Pixar Short' Lifted, which I believe to be one of the best shorts developed by pixar.The storyline is extremely amusing, one that I've been able to watch again and again. The attention to characters in this short is second to none, I say this because none of the characters talk in the short, yet you can instantly you can tell their thoughts and emotions.
