Customer Reviews:
Could’ve been better, but still an overall good movie
I, like most of the people commenting here, grew up watching Rugrats since it first came out on TV and I personally still like to watch it to this day as a closet hobbie of mine. That said, my feelings for this movie when I first watched it were good and bad, but overall positive.

To start with the turnoffs, I was surprised a G rated movie had things such as Tommy’s diaper falling off and mooning everyone while dancing on top of the record player at his Grandpa’s wedding, or Coco’s wedding dress being ripped apart and exposing her underwear. I didn’t think stuff like that needed to be in there and thought the movie was a little bit grosser than the potty humor found in the regular TV episodes.

I also thought it was a bit of a stretch for the babies to be capable of operating the giant Reptar robot. Though I still was entertained by all the havoc it created by rampaging through town, I just couldn’t see how a bunch of infants would be smart enough, let alone be big enough to control it. Sure the movie is made for kids, but even my younger siblings thought that was wierd and didn’t make sense.

Now for the good stuff. I thought Klasky Csupo did a good job of integrating pop culture parodies such as Lady and the Tramp, King Kong, and my favorite of all, The God Father. I couldn’t stop laughing when I first saw Angelica appear as “The Bobfather” (and believe me she fits that role perfectly) or when Dil first drooled all over her hand. The pop culture parodies were one of the things that made the show great in the first place, and in my opinion the writers did a good job of inserting more of it into this movie.

Coco Lebouche also made a pretty good villian. When you love to hate the bad guy in a movie you know they’re good and I just loved her coniving manipulative personality. It’s always fun to see those kind of villians get what they deserve at the end and she definately got hers (In fact I wish they had kept the alternate ending [one of the bonus features] in which she was stuck working at a deoderant factory and being grossed out by that low life job she was forced to work).

Most importantly of all, this movie has a wonderful family values aspect to it. Chuckie is my favorite character, and I’ve always felt sorry for him in being the only baby in the group to not have a Mom. So to see him finally get a really good one in Kira Watanabe, as well as a new sister in Kimi was very touching to me. It’s this kind of stuff that I wish more cartoons had these days.

Inappropriately aimed at children
First of all, let me say that I really enjoyed the first film and lets just say that I havent laughed that hard since the time that I saw that “Help, Ive fallen and I cant get up!” commercial, but the second film really is not appropriate for children. There are numerous sexual references and unneeded foul language all commited by children for children. It is obvious that the actor protraying Tommy(the main character) is not a child anymore (when was the last time you hear a baby speaking perfect english, I mean HELLLOO???) and should pass to role on. I am very disappointed with the producers and actors for taking place in this kind of film. Thumbs down big time!

An 8-year-old’s review
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.

THIS(…)
THIS SUCKED. All it was about was, chukie wants a new mom because his mom is dead (Hey chukie! Why not bury her in the PET SEMETARY. You’ll get the treatment you deserve. DEATH and MURDER.) it had no point! Once again THIS MOVIE (…)!

Kimi’s kind of great
Kimi is a great charecter. But not as good as Lil. But kimi’s still my second favorite charecter. It was great when she became one of the rugrats. Kimi’s cute.
