Rating:  - Very intelligent and well done movie, very likeable hero
Some people consider "Bug's Life" as not being on the same level of quality as other Pixar productions, but I really can not agree with them. My daughter clearly wouldn't agree either. This is a very funny movie, with a lot of interesting innovations (we will never look at bugs in the same way, me and my family) and a kind of surprising kindness - even the bad guys are shown with some understanding (having chosen the life of parasite racketeers, they are now trapped by it - as much as their ant victims). ...

Rating:  - Dissappointing...
Maybe I've been spoiled by all the other Pixar classics, but am I the only one to find A Bug's Life slightly dissappointing?
It is certainly the black sheep of the Pixar family.
For a start, the characters are bugs. Who likes bugs? Nobody finds bugs cute or cuddly, or even nice to watch. And in A Bug's Life, the characters are all slightly dull, with the exception of Kevin Spacey's Hopper, a fantastic character and well voiced.
But the other characters suffer from a lack ... Read More
Rating:  - A superb animation classic again from Pixar.
It's based vaguely around the 'Magnificent Seven' storyline: a group of goodies are hired to protect a village and overcome adversity.
It's similar to 'Antz' in some respects (being an individual in an ant colony, team working but with freethinking etc).
The characters are varied and memorable.
It's not as funny as say 'Toy Story' but with a better story I feel. It's aimed more for kids than other animated films with a host of 'adult' jokes.
The extras are a bit ... Read More
Rating: - Gotta love them bugs
Those Pixar folk are amazing. Not only do they make an excellent movie, but they complement it with a first rate package of extras, especially the outtakes and the movie short "Geri's Game". The two-disc Collector's Editions are worth waiting for, and you will find yourself playing the second disc as often as the first.
This innovative take on the old fable "The Ant and the Grasshopper" teaches us a few important lessons:
1. There's a clumsy nerd who wants to be a hero in every colony

Rating: - Already Overlooked Masterpiece
The ants on Ant Island are putting the finishing touches on their annual offering to the grasshoppers, a payment for leaving them alone and keeping them safe from other bugs. Princess Atta is extremely nervous as this is her first year in charge. Things don't go as planned when Flik accidentally knocks all the food into the water. As a way to get rid of him while they met the increased demands, the colony sends him off to find warrior bugs to protect them. Through a series of mistakes, he finds a bunch of ... Read More
