Ratatouille (2007)
Yesterday, we decided that my wife and son would go to see Harry Potter, while I would take our daughter Katya, too young for Potter, to see Shrek the third. That we were unaware of Shrek no longer playing in theaters signifies the inordinate infrequency with which we have been to cinemas lately, the last one being the rather unremarkable "Charlotte's Web". This time we were spurred into action by pressure from a long-standing promise we had made to the kids. Since Shrek was out, we decided that Mathangi and Panini (wife and son) would watch Potter and then snack, while Katya and I would snack and watch Ratatouille (in that order to fit slight mismatches in the movie schedules). Unfortunately, Katya was too young for Ratatouille also, for she said there was too much "talking" in the film; but fortunately, I was aged just right for it, or at any rate I enjoyed it so much that this is certainly one for my DVD collection.
