Ratatoing is a 2007 Brazilian direct-to-video computer-animated film produced by Vídeo Brinquedo. The film follows a group of anthropomorphic rats named Marcell Toing, Carol, and Greg as they run a restaurant supplied by ingredients from a human restaurant.

Ratatoing was produced in four months under a tight budget to release around the same time frame as the Pixar film, Ratatouille.^[1] The movie is often referred to as a mockbuster by critics.

Ratatoing was originally released on June 2007 in Brazil. An English dub produced by Audioworks Producers Group and distributed by Inspired Distribution under the Peter Pan name was released on June 26, 2007 in North America.^[2][3]

Upon its release, Ratatoing was panned by critics and audiences alike for its unoriginal premise, outdated and sloppy animation, generic and monotonous story, and dull humor. It has since been ranked as one of the worst animated movies of all time.^[4]

Marcell Toing is the owner and chef of a rat-sized restaurant located in Rio de Janeiro, the titular Ratatoing, who operate the restaurant along with Carol and Greg, who serve as some of the restaurant's servers. The restaurant is well-known for it's delicious food and popularity, which the three acquire from stealing food from a nearby human restaurant via spy equipment. While on a record-setting night, a competing restaurant's staff tempt the waiters into revealing Ratatoing's secret to which they are unsuccessful.

After the restaurant's closure for the night, the competing restaurant's staff discuss options about bring their own restaurant back to the top spot in wake of Ratatoing's popular. They conclude that they have to expose their weakness in order to hurt the business. As one the competitor's staff (named "Brown Hair Rat" in the credits) realized they forgot the staff's notebook in the restaurant, they return to find it unlocked by accident. Brown Hair Rat decides to see if there is anything behind the kitchen doors, and discovers the human kitchen in the middle of a heist.

The competitors, who are in amazement upon learning the secret, realize that they will never be able to achieve the same ingredient quality and decides to sabotage Ratatoing by scaring the human restaurant's customers. Upon their return to the human restaurant, Marcell Toing, Carol, and Greg discover mouse traps scattered throughout the kitchen as well as a cat. This leads to them being unsuccessful for the night, coming back empty handed.
