Dallas Observer
Lasseter and Stanton and the rest of the animators and gagsmiths use the computer with staggering imaginative freedom.

All-embracing--funny and silly and tender, full of fun scares and endless sight gags.

Film Threat
This is a family film. There's a great deal of wackiness.

What A Bug's Life demonstrates is that when it comes to bugs, the most fun ones to hang out with hang exclusively with the gang at Pixar.
90
The New York Times
Makes jaunty, imaginative use of both extraordinary technology and bold storytelling possibilities within the insect world.
