This is my favorite Brad Bird movie and one of my favorite Pixar movies. The animation was great, the dialog was funny, it was set in Paris, and best of all, it was about food. Remy, a rat, discovers his passion for food and cooking. After a soup (that Remy helps a new, young chef prepare) receives rave reviews, he becomes the star of Gusteau’s, that is, until, the health inspector finds him in the kitchen.
