The Boston Phoenix
Whereas Antz finds some of its edgy inspiration in Kafka by way of Woody Allen, A Bug's Life is mired comfortably in the pastel mediocrity of Gumby. Made by the same people behind the tauter and more entertaining Toy Story, Life re-creates the treacly, ...read the complete Bug's Life movie review at The Boston Phoenix
Spirituality & Health (Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat)
This frolicsome and funny family film directed by John Lasseter (Toy Story) registers strongly on the senses and punches home its messages about the virtues of individuality and imagination. In a very routinized ant colony, Flik, an inventor, is trying ...read the complete Bug's Life movie review at Spirituality & Health (Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat)

Salon.com (Janelle Brown)
Near the climax of "A Bug's Life," the antagonist -- a myopic, scaly bully of a grasshopper named Hopper -- rallies his gang together to steal the harvest of the local ant colony. "The ants outnumber us 100 to 1. What if they figure that out?" he ...read the complete Bug's Life movie review at Salon.com (Janelle Brown)

If you could be a fly on the wall at Disney these days, you'd probably overhear more than a few conversations about that cursed Dreamworks and their lousy "Antz" movie. It's bad enough that "Antz" has become the highest-grossing non-Disney animated ...read the complete Bug's Life movie review at James Sanford

The Tech (MIT) (Vladimir V. Zelevinsky)
A Bug's Life is on one hand not a sequel at all and on the other hand twice a sequel and twice a remake. Coming from the team behind Toy Story and less than two months after another computer-generated ant-colony adventure, Antz, it doesn't exactly feel ...read the complete Bug's Life movie review at The Tech (MIT) (Vladimir V.

Of all of Pixar's films, it's the first and thus far only one whose pleasures are almost completely reserved for the diaper set. ...read the complete Bug's Life movie review at Film Freak Central (Walter Chaw)
Dustin Putman
After the recent animated debacles of, "A Rugrats Movie," and "A Bug's Life," I am seriously considering raising my highly negative rating on Dreamworks' other insect film from October, "Antz." I hated that movie, and yet, it is so much better than ...read the complete Bug's Life movie review at Dustin Putman
