Rat (2000)
Rat, a dark comedy
2 March 2006 - 4 out of 7 users found this review helpful.
I saw this film just after seeing the second Stuart Little film, "Stuart Little 2" (2002). The comparison between the two films makes for much hilarity. The skills in an emergency shown by Hubert's wife, Conchita (Imelda Staunton), versa the more motherly reactions of Mrs. Eleanor Little (Geena Davis) is a particularly hilarious contrast. I would have preferred more scenes with Peter Postlethwaite as himself. If you think Stuart Little is so sweet it will give you diabetes, then "Rat" is the perfect film for you! SPOILER - the sequence with the washer machine and subsequent actions on the part of Ms. Staunton's character is one of the darkest and funniest parts of this film.
