A Bug's Life

Rated: G

Year: 1998

Cast: Voices of Dave Foley, Kevin Spacey, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Denis Leary

Flik is the lone dreamer who sets out to rescue his colony from servitude. He recruits mercenaries for the task of liberation: bold performers from a traveling flea circus. The animation is so minutely miraculous, we could forgive the animators for making villains out of grasshoppers and revealing that the ladybug is, in fact, a man.

What Parents Like: There turns out to be more than a flicker of bravery in Flik, who stands up to his bullies by using his noggin.

What Kids Like: The small details and luminous pastel colors will leave youngsters bug-eyed with joy.

2 weird Japanese stories about child labor and no mention of the 2 great Wallace and Gromit movies, just ChickenRun which is nowhere near as clever as any of the Wallace and Gromit shorts or even Shaun the Sheep,

Great list and I shall surely like to bookmark it as there are so many animation movies that I had not watched yet. Finding Nemo and Up are my two most favorite movies online that I had seen both twice. Toy Story and Alice in the Wonderland were also good that had won Oscar Award this year. I watch these movies at online http://www.moviesorb.com/
