Editorial Reviews

A Bug's Life, produced by the same studio and creative team responsible for Toy Story, gleefully expands the nearly limitless boundaries of computer animation with innovative imagery and sophisticated storytelling techniques. The film's protagonist is Flik (voiced by Dave Foley), a brilliant but socially awkward ant who labors to free his colony from the tyranny of thuggish grasshoppers led by Hopper (Kevin Spacey). When one of Flik's labor-saving inventions backfires and scatters an offering of grain collected to mollify the grasshoppers, our hero enlists the aid of performing insects, who impersonate fearless warriors apparently eager to do battle with the green-skinned, multi-legged bullies. Witty scripting and peppy vocal performances go a long way toward delineating the characters, and the three-dimensional Pixar animation creates the illusion that they really exist. Their fluidity of movement, coupled with the dramatic interplay of light and shadow, facilitates the willing suspension of disbelief that will enable viewers of all ages to enjoy A Bug's Life.

November 21, 2008: This Disney Pixar DVD is one of our family's favorites. The ants are just precious in contrast to the sinister grasshoppers. Our sons really like to watch this one over and over. It would make a great holiday gift to be enjoyed for many years.

August 07, 2008: this is one of my fave disney animated films next to toy story. i wonder why not many like this one, i thought finding nemo was okay but loved a bug's life. have yet to see toy story 2. this is the story of an ant who sets out to find help in order to save his colony from the grasshoppers. had no idea one of them was voiced by spacey. he was just terrific.
