Antz opens with Z on his psychiatrist's couch, complaining of his insignificance in his role as a worker in a colony where the life of one ant is nothing in the face of the good of the colony. But then it all changes for Z, when by chance he meets the beautiful Princess Bala (Sharon Stone). In order to see her again, he swaps roles with his lifelong friend, the soldier Weaver (Sylvester Stallone). Unbeknownst to Z, though, Weaver's unit has been chosen by the evil General Mandible (Gene Hackman) for a suicide mission as part of Mandible's plan to unseat the queen (Anne Bancroft) and take control of the colony. From soldier, Z becomes a would-be kidnapper, and this leads him and Bala on an odyssey to far flung places. But Mandible's right hand man, Colonel Cutter (Christopher Walken) is on their trail.
