(HK/USA/Japan) You don’t have to be a cartoon-lover to get excited by the big screen production of this long-lived manga icon. But sadly, you’d be disappointed by this derivative film unless you are a fervent cartoon lover, or at least have the mindset of a seven-year-old kid.

Rodney Saint James (voiced by Hugh Jackman) is an uptown rat living a pampered, domesticated life as a pet to a well-off family in London. His comfy world literally goes down the toilet, however, when gutter rat Sid (Shane Ritchie) invades his peaceful home and sends him spiralling down into the sewers, where he discovers an entire city of rats.
