Disney PlusRatatouille also excels in the area of color and design. Like all the Pixar films before it, it avoids the overtly saturated and segregated coloring, or unnaturally elastic character movements sometimes associated with computer-animated films, and instead boasts a visual look that resembles a well-photographed live action-film.
It is a wildly engaging superhero romp with a unique sense of character and family that doesn’t quite fit in with the comparatively simple tales of fish and toys and monsters within the studio’s other films. The personal style of writer/director Brad Bird is an extension of the Pixar brand: the same genius storytelling, but with a very different sense of style. Ratatouille, then, is an interesting monster: while the film was written and directed by Bird, it was initially conceived and developed under (now former) Pixar short director Jan Pinkava.
