'Ratatouille' - Nothing Short of a Masterpiece

It's simply that. A masterpiece. Not only does it excel technically, this movie has a great cast with great characters, and underlying all those wonders is a great storyline. There were moments in the movie where I thought things are going to work this way or go that way (no spoilers here) but what I didn't expect was that things usually aren't as smooth as they were thought out to be. Reality always sinks in. It's up to how the main characters are going to make it to be. That is what makes it so intriguing. I want to know what happens next.

I do believe that Pixar has set a standard in terms of story-telling in the animation field that no other company comes close to it. They have always strive for quality and it shows in all their films. I just hope that other companies will follow their footsteps in providing quality work for their audiences too. Don't just think of making money.
