Reviews for The Rugrats Movie
A host of cooler-than-cool voices/cameos (Reed, Anderson, Curry and the B52s) and throwaway humour do keep the adults happy the whole time.

If you're a kid, you'll probably like it.
01/01/00
There's something about the film's roving sympathy that gives it surprising depth, mocking and embracing its characters -- adults and kids -- in quick succession.

The pleasant surprise is that the film is a delight.

Diaper-loads of fun.

The result is surprisingly watchable for kids and adults alike, producing only minimal fidgeting.

DOA from the start.

he film's target audience of little kids should make the production a hit.

The boundless creativity of this franchise's creators and writers never ceases to amaze me.

The Rugrats Movie is more like a pleasant Sunday drive in a big smooth sedan than the TV show's riotous joyrides in a fast, shiny convertible.
01/01/00
Has not a trace of what made the early episodes of the cartoon fun, and even at a slight 80 minutes, is a complete waste of time.
01/01/00
Television's most popular children's show successfully toddles to the big screen, offering all the sass and cuteness that Rugrats fans expect -- and more.
01/01/00
An embarrassingly juvenile production that would seem more at home in the midst of Saturday morning cartoons than on a big screen.

Top CriticIt's a great film. Go see it. Go enjoy it. Don't forget the kids.
01/01/00
has more than enough hijinks and gross-out humor to keep the under-10 crowd in hysterics for 90 minutes. Older viewers might catch themselves chuckling as well...

Although it works on two levels, one thing makes it work for any age: the sense of the id unloosed.
