RATATOUILLE

Remy (Patton Oswalt) is a young rat with a rather typical affinity toward fine cuisine. Fortunately for him, he lives in the Parisian sewers, directly below the restaurant made famous by his idol, Chef Auguste Gusteau (Brad Garett). His deepest desire is to follow in his culinary hero's footsteps, but there are two substantial obstacles in his way.

His father (Brian Dennehy) has no tolerance for Remmy's refined tastes when he sees so much perfectly decent garbage all around them to feast on. He worries that Remmy's passion could split up the rat family. Perhaps a much bigger obstacle, however, is the simple fact that Remmy is a rat and that no self-respecting person would ever want to eat food prepared by a rodent, no matter how good a cook he may be.

Despite all this, Remmy, makes friends with a garbage boy that works at the restaurant, finds his way into the kitchen, and risks his life preparing the most extraordinary soup. His first successful concoction proves that he may have a knack at cooking after all. Unfortunately, Remmy is playing a risky game because the jealous head-chef and all of the restaurants's employees want him eliminated as soon as possible.
