Ratz
Like lots of young ladies their age, Marci (Vanessa Lengies) and Summer (Caroline Elliott) have boys on their feverish brains. But the closer the girls get to their school's Spring Fling dance, the further they seem from finding dates. A desperate search for dance partners doesn't turn up any leads until the duo finds a magic ring. Aided by their newfound powers, they transform two pet rats into teen dreamboats -- with nightmarish results.

How sad is this?
A Disappointing Continuation
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
When I first watched Ratz, I couldn't believe how much I laughed. It is about two teen best friends, Marci and Summer, who thanks to their wacky adult buddy Doris, get a hold of a magical ring that grants wishes. Before they know it they are responsible for two teenaged boys, who were formally rats, and plan on taking the male hotties to the Spring Fling dance. Chaos obviously ensues. The concept of this movie is so far-fetched, the plot line so crazy, and the acting so mediocre that it made this movie one of the funniest I have ever seen! The comedy of it is cute and humorous, making you laugh if you don't try to over analyze it. If you watched Ratz with an open mind and a positive out look, you will find it funny. It is not meant to be one of those silver screen, four star comedies. But it is still good enough to entertain you.
This was a very funny, cute kids movie. Definitely directed toward kids, but kept me laughing. It is definitely not the worst movie ever made, but a very clever, funny, at times ridiculous spin on a Cinderella story.
I enjoyed this movie. I stumbled across it on tv while surfing channels, and was immediately intrigued by the hilarious plot. My daughter and I watched it from the beginning the following afternoon, and both laughed hard at the situations and characters.A funny concept is made funnier by the performances of some talented, if lesser known, actors. Vanessa Lengies as Marci and Caroline Elliot as Summer do a terrific job as two preteens caught in a funny dilemna. Kathy Baker and Ron Glass play their dysfunctional characters to a "T", and the rest of the cast does an excellent job of portraying this charicature of small town life set awry by a magical ring.Not a masterpiece, but a fun piece of fluff for a rainy Sunday afternoon!
This is a movie for pre-teens to sit and enjoy. It's not some award winning artsy type movie. I think the whole story was very cute and creative. The actors all seemed to work well with each other. It reminds me of something that I would have wanted to happen when I was a pre-teen.
