在世界闻名的美食之都--巴黎，一只名叫雷米(帕顿·奥斯瓦尔特配音)的小老鼠一心想成为一个伟大的厨师。但是，“理智”的亲人却时常提醒他不要妄想，因为对于香气漫溢的厨房来说，老鼠已然是最不受欢迎的主儿！不过，当“残酷”的命运把它带到巴黎城市的下水道的时候，小雷米猛然发现自己正好来到了自己仰慕已久的著名厨师奥古斯汀·古斯特主灶的一家法国名餐馆的下面。这样的绝佳机遇给了小雷米不尽的勇气，于是他决定留下来，期望在这里达成自己成为一位老鼠名厨的愿望。但雷米灰灰的外表自然会招致人们的厌恶甚至是四处追打。不过，乐观的小雷米对于烹调的热情很快就将一切不如意变成了一场精彩和激动人心的老鼠赛跑，甚至将整个巴黎美食界搅的天翻地覆。还好，幸运的小老鼠遇到了一个在后厨帮工的年轻人——林贵尼(直译过来就是意大利扁面条)。尽管他缺少厨艺的天赋，但他正拼命得想保住自己的工作。这两个家伙的相遇是一拍即合，一个“人鼠美食联盟”就这样形成了。小老鼠躲在厨师帽中，用操纵林贵尼的手臂，帮助他做出一道又一道精美大餐。两个人的愿望终告实现，但接下来麻烦依旧不断。他们要躲避神经兮兮的主厨，他们要说服雷米的家人理解他的追求，当然，还有林贵尼青涩美好的爱情。最后，功夫不负有心人，他们终于烹制出全巴黎最棒的普罗旺斯闷菜(片名Ratatouille就是这个意思)，并向世人展示了小老鼠爱厨房的无比热情...

Hi, I'm Brad Bird, writer and director of the Incredibles, at peaks arewe loving impossible dreams. Remy, the hero of my new movie Ratatouille is a rat with the most fantastically impossible dream of all, to become the greatest chef in Paris. Now like any film maker, I want you to see the film on the big screen, that being said, I'd like to give you a little taste of Ratatouille. In this sequence from the film, Remy is made his way to the rooftop of the Paris's most famous restaurant, Gusteau’s, founded by Remy's chief inspiration and guardian angel, Auguste Gusteau and his adventure is about to begin.
