A scrawny rat named
Remy (voice of
Patton Oswalt) finds his dreams of culinary superstardom stirring up sizable controversy in the kitchen of a fine French restaurant in director
Brad Bird's
madcap computer-animated
comedy. It's hard being a rat with culinary aspirations, but
Remy is convinced he has what it takes to break the stereotypes and follow in the footsteps of star chef
Auguste Gusteau (voice of
Brad Garrett). As fate would have it,
Remy is currently situated in the sewers directly beneath
Gusteau's elegant restaurant. Soon
Remy teams up with a young chef with little talent named
Linguini (voice of
Lou Romano). Together they are able to create some fabulous dishes, but they live in fear that someone will discover their secret and object strenuously to a rat being in a kitchen. When
Remy's passion for cooking turns the haughty world of French cuisine upside down, the rat who would be king of the kitchen learns important lessons about life, friends, and family while questioning whether he should pursue his culinary calling or simply go back underground and return to his life as a sewer rat.
