    This film fales as a childrens strory and dissapoints adults as a sweet comedy. It comes together as a hardly descent picture with bad acting and an annoying plot.

    The story, about an ant colony that frees itself from slavery to grasshoppers, is similar in some ways to the autumn's other big animated release, "Antz," but it's aimed at a broader audience and lacks the in-jokes.

    The story is amusing and the animation is first-rate, but there's less sparkling originality than in "Toy Story."

    Lasseter and Stanton and the rest of the animators and gagsmiths use the computer with staggering imaginative freedom.
