Consensus: Wonderful animation backed by humor and the vocal talents of its cast make for an entertaining movie.
Synopsis: Z-4195 (Woody Allen) is just a worker ant - one in a billion - and his odds of landing the beautiful Princess Bala (Sharon Stone) are about the same. Undaunted by the colony's unyielding caste... [More]

Top CriticA delight, loaded with wit, style and charm.
01/01/00
Top CriticA Engaging and awe-inspiring animation once again elevates Shrek's world to fantastic heights, and the laughs are just as freewheeling as we have come to expect.
10/18/08
Kids may be puzzled by rebellious worker ants chanting Marxist slogans, but their parental guides may welcome the relief from the prevailing blandness of family films.
09/04/08
By any standard, the film is a remarkable technical achievement.
09/04/08
Top CriticThe artwork is spectacular, vocal performances uniformly capable and the jokes appealing to both adults and children.
09/04/08
Top CriticAppeals to your daydreams when you were a kid and you wondered about the daily physical hassles of an ant.
07/23/07
Visually striking and dynamically shot, this has strong characters and no shortage of incident.
06/24/06
Though the story is standard formula kids' fare, the Allen presence brings an adult swing to it, making it more than passable for both.
05/26/06
Succeeds at pushing the technology as well as and offering intelligent family fare that won't leave adults bored. Great fun.
12/06/05
A clever, funny, fascinating to watch film that could have been more.

...the message of Antz is this: Freedom of choice is important, but one should use their freedom to be decent, responsible, humble, and helpful.
01/15/05
A few chuckles here and there, and a semi-interesting story line, but nothing too outstanding.
11/13/04
Has enough of a story to keep a child engaged and a script clever enough to keep an adult amused.
06/28/04
exciting, often hilarious and frequently wondrous film... Adults who live in fear of seeing non-Disney animated movies would be well-advised to overcome their prejudices.
07/31/03
Star-studded, gloriously animated, beautifully written, this cartoon will appeal just as much, if not more, to adults as to children.
05/22/03
How often have you been happy to find ants marching in your own back yard? This may mark the one and only time.
05/20/03
There's plenty of action in this computer-animated comedy, but it's no match for Toy Story in humor and originality.
04/02/03
...A spectacular computer-animated cartoon that is sure to give Disney's upcoming A Bug's Life a run for its sugar grains.
