Rugrats in Paris
- Rating:

- Director: Stig Bergqvist
- Starring: John Lithgow
- Details: US / 79 mins / (G).
The cartoon heroes decide to embark on a trip to Paris in search of a new mother for Chuckie and get up to their usual japes and skulduggery. For fans of the series (in other words, anyone under the age of 10) Rug Rats in Paris will greatly satisfy. Since it clocks in an economical 79 minutes, it can hardly be classified as a chore for the accompanying adults either. Indeed, there's more than a cursory nod to the grown ups here with some genuinely funny gags - watch out for an excellent Godfather pastiche very early on. It's all good clean fun, but don't go along expecting humour usually associated with The Simpsons.
