I think that many modern movies lack something. For example Disney-Pixar's Ratatouille.
As a comparison, while in Pan's Labyrinth we could see how the main and even the secondary characters develop over the movie, Ratatouille lacks in this area. Yes, superb animation, superb world and even excellent
graphic design.
But, the characters seem flat, one doesn't feel any kind of affinity for them. Linguini for example, begins and ends the movie as just a guy who needs to keep a job. Remy the rat begins as a talented chef and stays that way, no enlightening, no wake up call. It seemed like the movie wanted to explore many paths but fell short. It could have just focused more on a story, like Linguini's inheritance. Unless he is a MacGuffin*, a walking one...
*MacGuffin: Something that motivates the character "but is of little or no importance"
