Episode 121 - Ratz (2000)

Change two rats into guys? Whatever! On this week's episode of They Called This a Movie, we go to a time of frosted tips, bell bottom jeans, and a general self-centered attitude that can only come from a pre-9/11 America. Two unpopular teen girls happen upon a wish-granting ring that turns two rats into hunky boys. It's the Showtime Original kids' movie, Ratz, which we watched for some reason. Settle in as we review this oddball choice, as we discuss everything from the fashion to the jokes that actually made us laugh to the overstuffed plot that features a knight that does nothing.
