Antz (1998)
8/10
tremendous voice cast -- one of the best ever assembled -
20 January 2024
It's sharp and funny--not a children's movie, but one of those hybrids that works on different levels for different ages. Antz is the darker film, visually and thematically, but it boasts a tremendous voice cast -- one of the best ever assembled -

Cast (in credits order) verified as complete Woody Allen Woody Allen ... Z (voice) Dan Aykroyd Dan Aykroyd ... Chip (voice) Anne Bancroft Anne Bancroft ... Queen (voice) Jane Curtin Jane Curtin ... Muffy (voice) Danny Glover Danny Glover ... Barbatus (voice) Gene Hackman Gene Hackman ... Mandible (voice) Jennifer Lopez Jennifer Lopez ... Azteca (voice) John Mahoney John Mahoney ...

Additional Voices (voice) April Winchell April Winchell ... Additional Voices (voice)

Its also one of the most simply effective films about social class and identity .The story is engaging, the characters are likeable (Woody Allen as the neurotic dreamer Z perhaps stealing the show) note to mention Sharon Stone ! Gene Hackman and Sylvester Stallone ! Are you on board yet ?! The jokes are plentiful, inventive, and more importantly, funny. The animation is first-rate by the standards of 1998. Visually, it's impressive; Antz remains a hugely enjoyable film !
