...Bird could single-handedly save Pixar from the movie rut it's been in of late with efforts such as Cars ?

Overall though, Ratatouille proves even more satisfying that Bird's previous film. You would think at...

Unfortunately Argentos first feature, made in 1970, also lacks the characteristic Argento baroque visual splendour (although it does have a typically impressive Argento opening sequence, the attempted murder behind plate glass). Im not a big fan of the...

...Bird knows how to tell a story. Doesnt matter if its about a giant alien robot (The Iron Giant), a family of Super Heroes laying low (The Incredibles) or something as simple as a rat who cooks in a Paris restaurant (Ratatouille - One of the very best films of 2007). His efforts have garnered him 2 Oscars and Im sure hell get more in the...
