Rugrats In Paris: The Movie

Bought for my son who likes Rugrats as an adult.

My kids love this movie and its nostalgic for my husband and I so worth it.

My daughter loves this movie. Cute for children, although I would skip the scene in the restaurant if you want to make sure your children don't see certain things they may not understand yet. Children should be children for as long as possible, I feel.

My children: kindergartener and 2nd grader love this movie

I grew up watching Rugrats and we just recently threw away our old VHS tapes, so finding this movie on DVD was great for me. I didn't like it as much as the first because I'm not much for introducing new characters, but it was still a good movie and worth watching. I rated it four stars because something just wasn't working for me...I'm not quite sure what it was, but in comparison to the first movie this one definitely seems to be lacking a star.Pros;-It's Rugrats. These babies kept me entertained for years and I still enjoy watching them.-Chuckie's "I Want a Mom" song is very sweet and sad, and if you're anything like me you'll end up with it stuck in your head after you watch this. Come to think of it I suppose that could also be a con... =P-Funny. Angelica's Godfather impression will make you laugh, as will several other parts of the movie.-Touching and relevant storyline. Some children don't have a mom, and Chuckie's struggle to get through that might help them to get through that. Even those children who are lucky enough to have both parents should realize how precious life is. (And just because Chuckie is looking for a new mom doesn't mean he doesn't love his actual one. He went YEARS without one, it isn't as if he's trying to replace her).Cons;-The Reptar park could have been anywhere in the world. Besides the accents and the ocassional shot of the Eiffel Tower, there was nothing to show that it was actually in Paris.-The poodle. I could be wrong but at no point do you actually find out the poodle's name and who owns her. As someone who has seen the show I know, but if you just watch the movie as a standalone thing you might be left wondering. It isn't a big deal, just something that bothered me a bit.Overall, I like this movie. If you're a fan of the Rugrats, go ahead and buy it before you can't find it anymore. It is a cute movie that will appeal to people of all ages.

Now I remember watching the first "Rugrats" movie in almost empty theater, which went totally ignored in Japan, where Nickleodeon's original famous, long-cherished TV series is virtually unknown among Japanese anime productons. And this second theatrical offering, after that result, went as a consequence almost unnoticed, given only a very limited theatrical release (and Japanese-dubbed version only). So, I bought a copy at Amazon, just to listen to the original cast's voice. Yes, no one can reproduce the voice of wickedly funny Angelica.The second movie "Rugrats in Paris" turned out better than I expected, and probably the first thetrical one. Adults, let me give you good news, there are less toilet humors that is one of the characteristics of the series. Well, still there is, but thanks to the producers' wise decision, the focus is given to Chuckie, (comparatively) elder member of the baby gang that go to Paris with a reason so far-fetched that you might as well forget at all. Anyway, the point is, the kids in dipers go to an amusement park in Paris, managed single-handedly by a mean, greedy woman Coco (imagine Cruela of "101" with-French accent, voiced by Susan Sarandon) Apparently in the name of love for kids (but with her own hidden agenda), she swears that she is going to marry Chuckie's dad, but before that, her amusement park, and inevitably the city of Paris also has to suffer the greatest wreck since the time of "Armaggedon."The story is nothing but an excuse for those kids' wracky gags, and sometimes the film, even for its short running time, looks as if padded out. Still, the film goes smoothly (more smoothly than the previous film) and by giving (again comparatively) elder characters more time for spotlight, the film avoids being filled with gross-out laughs though, obviously for younger audience, they are still retained. One of my favorite moments of the film is when deliciously mean child-devil Angelica reflects: "Sometime I can't help myself." Yeah, that's why you are so lovely.The only complaint from Japanese audience is that the film, intentionally or not, seems as if confusing Japan and China. Though names like Tanaka or Yamaguchi are obviously Japanese ones (and Mako, born in Kobe provides for the former), their costumes and manners rather belong to Chinese tradition -- for instance, dragons or gongs -- and this kind of confusion might explain the lukewarm reception on the side of Japanese distributors. As a matter of fact, the people in both countries are getting too much weary of this kind of mistakes.These things aside, the film lives up to our standard of animated film today, and if nothing special, "Rugrats in Paris" gives you an enjoyable trip to fantasy world with those noisy but lovely child gang from Nickelodeon.

Of course, I think this movie is super! The reason I rated it 5 stars is because of the plot. Actually, there were a few plots, like the wedding, giant robots, broken hearts, and lying. That is everything I love. Well, okay, maybe the fact that it's not scary is distressing, because I love horror. But, all in all, it was a great film. I watch it a lot with my mom. The villain, Cocoa, was super. Her plan was to become the president of the whole theme park and, believe me, that was a very important job. The whole reason they had to go to Paris, France was because the gigantic robot, Reptar, had his head blown up, which I think was hilarious. It made a huge mess, and then they had to go all the way to Paris which, believe me, is a long way. But, it really turned into an adventure and here are some things that happened: a crazy woman tried to trick Chuckie's dad into marrying her, and a dog running away, then a wedding, and a gigantic robo-snail which, believe me, is exciting and entertaining. I would have given it about 4 stars, but the plot just had to make one more star. My favorite part was when the whole plot began, but Chuckie knew that he must stop all these weird things from really happening, or his life would be ruined. If you ask me, there was a lot they had to worry about. I mean, they still did fix Reptar, which was important. There are even cool controls that make Reptar move. This was the best Rugrats movie I have seen so far. Believe me, you will want to watch this movie over and over with your family.

My daughter loves this movie. She had it when she was lil on VHS. As a young adult, she still loves watching her childhood faves.

This is an excellent film much enjoyed by the whole family.

Fast delivery, Made my Son laugh , as he's never seen rugrats .

I brought this because me and my sister was talking about her 1 year old daughter and how her talking is developing then we got talking about the Rugrats and we just got soooooooooooooo excited because we haven't seen it in years and that's why i brought it. Totally forgot how great the Rugrats is.

Originally had this DVD 10 years ago when my daughter was 4 and she loved it. Unfortunately when I looked in the box to put it on for my 3 year old twins it wasn't there so had to buy a new one as they love Rugrats. They watch it all the time and are actually watching it now!!!! We all love!!

I used to love the Rugrats as a child and wanted to get this for nostalgia and also hoped that my 5 year old son would enjoy it! It was fantastic to sit down and watch this with him, he thought it was so funny :) Great adventure story for the whole family to enjoy!
