Cute, the kids love it. Mom not so happy about language., Dec 27 2011

This review is from: Rugrats: Tales From the Crib - Three Jacks & A Beanstalk (DVD)
My kids are 3.5, 4.5 and 8. The 3.5 year old is obsessed with this movie and wants to watch it nearly every day. The other two like it a lot, but not as much as the little guy. It is a cute movie, but I greatly dislike the use of "stupid babies" and some other impolite phrases, especially from Angelica. It's not really a movie anyone over 10 would want to see more than once. I agree about the "pooping" catchphrase from Dyl... unnecessary, as well as Phil's pants repeatedly falling down, however my little guys think that's hilarious. If I can just find the "counting on a miracle" song, I might be able to buy myself a few days free of the 110 minute movie.
All in all, not awful, just not my favorite.

A disgusting disappointment, Aug 23 2007

The biggest turnoff of this special to me was how much crude humor it contained. Dil's pattened "poopy" catchphrase was used way too much (not to mention was already getting way old) and Phil's pants kept falling of resulting in the viewer seeing the place where the sun don't shine far too many times. Aunt Moo was also given way too much face time and didn't really fit in well with the main rugrats cast.
I was annoyed that none of the grownups appeared and would've rather seen one of them narrate the story instead of Taffy or whatever the heck her name was.
As for the way the story was told, it seemed like something on the level of really young kids of like 3 or 4 year olds. Being a diehard Rugrats fan I was disappointed in this movie special and advise everyone else to pass on ordering it.

A Great Rugrats fantasy, Dec 18 2010

When my girls were younger they loved Rugrats. I purchased this DVD for them one year and they have watched it over and over again. They sometimes still take it out of the bookcase to watch. Different from the regular Rugrats episodes, this finds Angelica and those "dumb babies" playing the roles of fairy tale characters.
If your kids like Rugrats, they'll probably love this one.
