‘Cars’ Rip-Off Review: ‘The Little Cars in the Big Race’
In previous articles for
The News Wheel, I’ve expended brain cells and typing power in equal measure to bring you reviews of several horrible rip-offs of Pixar’s

Forget Ratatouille, here s Ratatoing! The rise and rise of the mockbuster Amelia Tait
It is hard to describe what happens 24 minutes into Ratatoing, an animated children’s movie from 2007. Four unnerving rats – one with a handlebar moustache, another in pearls – begin to jump up and down and grunt in a restaurant, in order to alarm the human clientele. “La, la, la, la, la,” they sort of sing while sort of dancing. They then do the can-can and shout “HA, HA, HA!” before making ghostly noises. Ratatoing is not, it is safe to say, a good movie. It is barely even an acceptable movie. It was created in just four months by Brazilian animation studio Vídeo Brinquedo, to be released in the same month as Ratatouille, the restaurant-and-rat-themed film that went on to win Pixar the Oscar for best animated feature.
