At an annual pace, a huge colony of ants is forced to collect every piece of food that grows on their island for a group of menacing grasshoppers. But that all changes when a misfit inventor ant named Flik accidentally knocks over the offering pile thus forcing the grasshoppers' devious leader Hopper to force the ants to redo their gathering of food. Despite the fact that his friends don't believe him and desperate to help save the colony, Flik volunteers to go out into the world and search for a group of 'warrior' bugs. Instead, what he got was a talented group of circus performers. But when the grasshoppers return and take control of the island, Flik must prove himself a true hero before it's too late.Written by

Quotes
[first lines]
Ant #1:
[gasps]
No, no, no, Oh, no. Oh, no.
[a leaf falls in front of one of the worker ants in the food line]
Ant #1:
I'm lost! Where's the line? It just went away. What do I do?
Ant #2:
Help!
Ant:
We'll be stuck here forever!
Mr. Soil:
Do not panic, do not panic. We are trained professionals. Now, stay calm. We are going around the leaf.
Ant #1:
Around the leaf? I-I-I don't think we can do that.
Mr. Soil:
Oh, nonsense. This is nothing compared to the twig of '93.

A Bugs Life is a great film that is not just for kids but for adults too. The story is set around a colony of ants and their struggle against the evil Grasshoppers who come back every year and steal their food ( A Mirror of the Magnifiscent seven). There is some wonderfull computer animation and the voices are great too. You will love it!! 8 out of 10
