“Ratatouille” is a delightful Disney/Pixar film. It’s a basic “rags to riches” story following the rise of a rat name Remi from the squalor of garbage to working in a fine Parisian restaurant where he has access to real food. I attended a 7:30 screening of it at Provo’s Wynnsong (Carmike Cinemas) on July 14th.
Here’s the content review. Even though it’s rated “G,” I found some content that could possibly be offensive to some.VIOLENCE: Several shotgun blasts by an old woman trying to rid her house of rats. It leaves several holes in her house, but no animals or humans are injured. She pursues the rats out to the waterway behind her house and fires one or two more shots.
IMMORALITY: A couple is seen kissing through a hole in a ceiling as rats pass over. Later, the two main human characters exchange an extended kiss. There is a brief silhouette of a woman on a window shade applying makeup as the rats climb up a house . (I only include this because some may interpret this as a female applying her makeup who is still not fully dressed. Else why would she have the shade pulled?)
LANGUAGE: The head chef at the restaurant where the the rat Remi ends up says to the new garbage-boy-hire-turned-amatuer-chef, “Welcome to he**.”
I recommend the film–great production values, great story, great characterization and all that stuff.
