Bugs Life - (VHS) The second computer animated feature from Disney was also the second computer animated film about insects released this year. The hero is Flik a young ant with big ideas who sets out to save his colony from the evil domination of a bunch of unscrupulous grasshoppers. For this task he employs a gang of travelling players and all hell breaks loose. Beautifully drawn and animated as you’d expect from Disney A Bugs Life has a stellar cast: Kevin Spacey Roddy McDowell Denis Leary and David Hyde Pierce add their vocal talents to the diminutive heroes. Stay tuned until the end too where you will be treated to a series of (specially made) outtakes: tripping over cables forgetting lines etc. Overall a very funny film and while Flik may be two legs short of an insect but he’s got more screen presence that some of today’s movie stars.
