Review of Rugrats in Paris: The Movie (2000) by Steven P — 21 Jun 2010
Before there was Ratatouille, there was Rugrats in Paris. This is another example of the fact that Disney isn't the only studio out there that can make great animated films. A year has passed since the death of Chuckie's mother (even longer in the years of enthusiastic Nick fans), but he and his father have still yet to come to terms with it.
They naturally jump at the chance to go to Paris with their longtime friends, the Pickles and the DeVilles. There is now a situation for a fresh start-does Chas go for the rich temptress KoKo (Susan Sarandon) or the sweet working girl Kira and her daughter Kimi? Aside from the pure sentiment of character and plot that is notably absent in many of Nick's current productions (cough, Fanboy and Chum Chum), the animation is top tier, right from Angelica doing her best Don Lito Corleone impression to the final fight across the streets of Paris (what I would have given to see that in IMAX), and this is an altogether better family film than the already great first entry.
Rugrats in Paris gets an 89 out of 100.
