Rugrats in Paris: The Movie | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Lisa Alspector Chicago Reader Nauseating gags suggest the makers of this eclectically animated adventure... know their audience, though all the Godfather references will be thoroughly puzzling to at least half of it. May 20, 2008 Full Review Rugrats in Paris: The Movie | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Derek Adams Time Out This is one kids' film that's actually quite charming. Jun 24, 2006 Full Review Rugrats in Paris: The Movie | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Liam Lacey Globe and Mail Musically ... the Rugrats sequel is a big step backward.

Chris P This movie is more of a tear jeker as an adult than when I saw it as a kid. A heartfelt and wonderful family story Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/07/24 Full Review Tim M C'est chic! Rugrats in Paris: The Movie has more scrumptious storytelling and clever kiddie humor than its predecessor. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/10/24 Full Review Paige W Watched this on repeat as a kid and about to watch it every night for a week to relive the nostalgia. Love it, so funny and cute Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/23/24 Full Review Noe G Rugrats in Paris is my favorite Rugrats movie I give this movie a 10/10 Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/12/24 Full Review Trafalgar L "Rugrats in Paris" is not only a charming family film, it also features breathtaking animation, celebrity voice casts, and a bittersweet plot. When Stu Pickles is called to Paris, France due to his latest invention breaking down the babies are off on their latest adventure. While Chas and Chuckie are suffering from FOMO due to Lou and Lulu's wedding are determined to find a wife, and a mother. Angelica however has her own plans and tricks Chas into dating the gold digging opportunistic Coco LaBouche, now the babies are forced to stop the wedding and prevent Chas from making a big mistake. Humor aside, the storyline is great and heartfelt and the movie does one thing many fans were skeptical of. It closes the show's longest running storyline of Chas and Chuckie not having a wife and mother, respectively. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who is a fan of the franchise or loves animation. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/01/24 Full Review Cody W Yep. I figured they'd be back. RUGRATS IN PARIS offers many wacky adventures, lots of baby humor, and a bunch of hilarious potty jokes. However, one thing that I really liked about this movie is the heartwarming moments between Chuckie and his father and how wonderful they really are as father and son. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/25/24 Full Review Read all reviews
