Roddy is a decidedly upper-crust "society mouse" who lives the life of a pampered pet in a posh Kensington flat. When a sewer rat named Sid comes out of the sink, he desides he had hit the jackpot. Roddy schemes to rid himself of Sid by luring him into the "whirlpool." Sid may be an ignorant slob, but he's no fool, but it is Roddy who winds up being flushed away into the bustling sewer world of Ratropolis. There Roddy meets Rita, an enterprising scavenger who works the sewers in th Jammy Dodger, her faithful boat. Roddy immediately wants out, or rather, up. Trouble comes in the form of the villainous Toad - who royally despises all rodents. The Toad dispatches his two hapless hench-rats, Spike and Whitey, to get the job done. When they fail, the Toad has no choice but to send to France for his cousin, Le Frog, the dreaded mercenary.

OK submitted by alumeng.ajl on July 24, 2012, 3:42pm This is one of the worst children's movie's that I've ever seen. It was boring and really cheesy. Ick.

flushed away submitted by hcf on July 30, 2014, 3:54pm oh we just laugh at this movie. well done

We love this movie! submitted by wendylv on August 23, 2015, 9:21pm Poor, poor Roddy, stuck in his own potty! This movie is clever and charming and a lot of fun.

Lots of quirk submitted by FordAlpha on August 28, 2017, 11:23am This film is from Ardman studios, so you have to expect a lot of quirk. Some of the quirk works, some of it . . . doesn't. Overall, though, this movie is fun. Kids love the potty humor, and adults enjoy the offbeat pop-culture references and weird jokes. I am fond of the singing leeches (slugs?) that pop up at odd moments.

Alright submitted by anacoluthon on August 25, 2018, 12:50am Although this movie is from the same studio as Wallace & Gromit and Chicken Run, this movie lacked a lot of the charm found in those movies.

Good! submitted by Abbie D. on July 20, 2022, 12:26pm I don't remember much about this movie but I watched it a lot as a kid and remember really liking it!
