Ratatouille

Well, as bizarre as the voice roles can be (Patton is the lead of a Disney family movie? Jeanane Garafolo and Brad Garret playing French? Ian Holm is the bad guy?), this is actually a pretty classic Disney tale: outcast clashes with family, gets separated and finds new friend, but discovers he needs family after all and gets them to help in climactic scene. I was wondering if Fievel would show up at some point (is that even Disney? You know what I mean...) Every voice does well here, and Brad Bird knows how to use the new animation style to dazzle but not distract. Still, it's surprisingly old school and not too funny, but cute. You can watch it with kids and not kill yourself, which is getting hard these days.
