Plot

From the creators of "Toy Story", another technically brilliant, sharply-scripted and utterly charming animated adventure. All's well on Ant Island, until a swarm of menacing grasshoppers fly in, demanding the colony's entire harvest. In desperate need of reinforcements, accident-prone inventor Flik travels to Bug City, where he recruits a posse of mercenaries in the form of a team of unemployed circus performers. There's less of the sly humour that made "Toy Story" such a joy, but the sheer technical wizardry and awesome aesthetics are guaranteed to make this a winner with kids and adults alike.
