Woody Allen! I love that ending homage to Allen's beloved New York, with Doris Day heading off the closing credits. The animation is far worse than A Bug's Life, but as a story, I like Antz better. While I wouldn't say the movie is particularlly colorful in respect to bugs and their lives, the dialogue is pure Woody, and because of that, it is hilarious. This is also probably the inception of Disney hiring famous actors to do voicework, but somehow - at least in this film - it doesn't detract.

Finally got around to seeing this cute little movie. I think it's one of Pixar's less substantial but it's definitely a good time. Very funny and great animation for its time.

Gene Kelly and Donald O'Connor make such a magical pair. I think this may be the best movie I have ever seen in my life. It's so simple yet so perfect.

Maggie Smith is reason enough to love this film. And the score by Patrick Doyle is beyond beautiful. I loved the score so much I actually bought it from Amazon, something I never do.
