Great for everyone of any age
I have liked this movie since I was around nine and I still like it now. In my opinion its one of PIXAR's best films and a really memorable one. Recommend this movie to anyone of any age.

Not for small children
My son started a new preschool that allows the children to watch G rated movies during their "after care". This movie was one selected. After my son watched it, he starting using violent language. I decided to watch it to find out what the movie was all about. Overall, I thought the movie was great for adults; however, it is too violent for a three year old. In addition, there is bullying, name calling and kicking/hitting others in anger. I thought this movie was completely inappropriate for a preschooler and will not allow my child to watch it again until he is school age.

Didn't care for it.
A Bugs Life reminds me a lot of Ants.
Boring, unmemorable, pretty to look at but not much fun to listen to.
This is a great movie for kids with a low attention span.
For adults?
Hmmmmm.......... Compared to masterpieces like Toy Story and Monster's Inc., I'll have to pass on another bug movie.

Get the Toy Story and Ice Age films insted!!!
This movie was too scary and violent for me. Even though I just read about this from others, I decided to take a chance, never again!! I at first told my teacher about this movie that I wanted to give it a try because it was a Pixar film as I'm big fan of the Toy Story films, as i told them if this was violent, she said that it wasn't too violent until I watched it at home. So I gave it a chance and I watched this movie on a laptop computer at school for just halfway through then it stopped so I quitted it. This is it, a couple days later, yesterday I bought the 2-disc DVD of this movie and I watched almost all of the thing and began to get scared because there was too much fighting and violence and I started crying for about 5 minutes until I could play a song that could make me feel a lot better. I played 2 of my favorite songs (Waiting for a Girl Like You and For Whom the Bell Tolls) to help make me feel better and thought that Toy Story was better and I felt better after that and I will stick with Toy Story and Ice Age films insted. Even Ice Age in Spanish and French was a lot better than this $#IT. Don't ever buy or waste your hard earned money on this violent movie. This movie will scare your family, even your grandma will hate it. If you want good films, get the Toy Story and Ice Age insted.
This film deserves way below 0.

If I Was A Bug, I'd Like This Sort Of Life
A little less sophisticated than its 1998 contemporary, Antz, Pixar's A Bug's Life still has charm as it takes us along on one ant's (Flik, voiced by Kids in the Hall Alum Dave Foley) personal quest to fend off strong-arm grasshopper extortionists (think Seven Samurai here) by hiring a private army of circus performers to hold the menacing horde at bay. Got that? There's little violence but the de rigueur implied death of a villain at the end is redeemingly satisfying. Adding to the film's charm are the voice talents of some '90's A-listers, including Kevin Spacey (jeez, has he vanished or what?), David Hyde Pierce, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Denis Leary, as well as stars of more classic cinematic eras, such as Rodney McDowell, Phyllis Diller, and Madeline Khan. If you've grown up some since seeing this movie---and who among us can maintain otherwise---see it again from a new perspective. It works for young and post-young alike.

That D. Afton guy (below) is crazy. It's an awesome movie!!!!!
I LOVED IT! I'd give it 10 stars if I could! My kids mimic the friendly, cute diaglogue, not the bad dialogue like that D. Afton's kids.

Rethinking the appropriateness of all these "modern, CGI classics," that teach tots snide, obnoxious behavior
For many months, we've been allowing our tots to watch this movie (and other CGI-type "classics" like Toy Story I & II, Monsters, Inc., Shrek, etc). Of late, we realized, with horror, that our kids' recent aggression, and usage of snide and obnoxious remarks has been due to these "modern kids classics."---comments and demands like "WHERE'S MY FOOD!!!" (courtesy of "Bugs Life"); "YOU'RE STUPID!"; "YOU IDIOT" (Toy Story); "YOU STINK"; shouting "I'm an ogre!" after belching...and the like. Even the brilliant (for adults, that is) Monsters, Inc. and Shrek movies have the characters castigating, berating, ridiculing each other, and teaching some pretty detestable behavior in some places. Maybe "Finding Nemo" is the least objectionable of the bunch. This movie is the WORST, and is very scary for tots. The antagonist---the evil Hopper---at various times threatens to kill his own brother and the entire ant colony, humiliates and gloats at various protagonists, and displays other utterly obnoxious and disturbing behavior that is otherwise a very poor influence on toddlers and small children.
In retrospect, all the CLASSIC Disney movies in our collection are safe, tame, and benign by comparison, and far less objectionable if even at all. (e.g., Cinderella, Snow White, etc). I wish we'd stuck to safer products for toddlers, like the afore-mentioned Disney titles, or The Wiggles, Baby Einstein, Bob the Builder, etc. I choose politically correct but safe, over slyly entertaining and wickedly cutting-edge, any day! Those "modern classics" are great for adults, what with their modern spin, dialogue, etc----but why give the kids a head-start on learning objectionable phrases and vocabulary that they're going to learn later from others? No one wants their kid to be the FIRST SOURCE of the poor habits and language being adopted by the other kids in the neighborhood and amongst the extended family.
The golden rule now in our house: If the adults enjoy it, and it's not tedious and boring, it's probably inappropriate for kids!

Rave Reviews about Bugs Life
We loaned out our copy of 'A Bug's Life' to a couple who have no children yet.....and they could not locate it to return it to us...SO....we purchased another copy because we will NOT be without a copy of this in our library for our grandchildren (we don't have any of those yet either). When we purchased this....the couple found our copy and now we have 2 copies!
This purchased was in excellent condition and arrived at JUST the right time!

Another Disney/Pixar classic!
If you liked Finding Nemo, you can't go wrong with A Bug's Life. Kevin Spacey is (not surprisingly) brilliant as the villain Hopper, but there's also some great voice work by folks who are no longer with us (Jonathan Harris, Madeline Kahn, Joe Ranft), adding a note of poignancy to the story. A wonderful DVD to own, whether or not you have kids.
