Crawling with imaginative characters, hilarious laughs, and colorful animation, Disney and Pixar's "A Bug's Life" will "delight everyone -- young, old, or six-legged" ("People" magazine). On behalf of "oppressed bugs everywhere" an inventive ant named Flik hires "warrior bugs" to defend his colony from a horde of freeloading grasshoppers, led by Hopper. But when Flik's cavalry turns out to be a ragtag group of flea circus performers, the stage is set for comic confusion ... as well as unlikely heroes! Featuring a star-studded voice cast, "A Bug's Life" presents an amazing new perspective on teamwork and determination, revealing subtle new details each time you watch it. 1.
