Drew offers to take his family and friends on a paradise cruise and everyone is excited. However when it transpires that his "cruise ship" is a tiny fishing boat nobody is that impressed but go along anyway. A perfect storm sees them cast adrift on an uninhabited island. While the adults come to terms with never making it off the island alive the babies are pumped about the whole thing, with Tommy convinced that he can find his idol, Nigel Thornberry somewhere in the rain forest.
Having found the other two Rugrats movies to be reasonably colourful and fun I decided to give this franchise amalgamation a try despite my low expectations. The film does deliver what you expect though and will be loved by fans of both series. The plot is nonsense of course but it gets the two series together well and provides enough story to keep it going with nary a dull moment. Although it is no Pixar, the film does have a lot more adult references than the first two films put together and they did enough to keep me interested. It also helped that the baby humour is minimised and replaced with just solid family humour.
The animation is colourful and warm and flows really well not the most imaginative stuff but perfect for a family audience. The regular voice cast are all as good as normal in the forms of Curry, Daily, Cartwright and others. Meanwhile the additions of Bruce Willis and Chrissie Hynde are both amusing. Overall then a solid and enjoyable family film colourful and amusing and worth a look if you are seeking out something to distract a family audience.

I remember loving this when it came out. Two of my favorite cartoons having a crossover? Man, I was in Heaven. Probably wouldn't hold up as well for me today, but I'm not going to reevaluate my rating.
The movie introduces the babies in a jungle pretending to be like The Wild Thornberrys, which happens to be a fake-out. Meanwhile, the adults are preparing for their vacation in the South China Seas. Stu has everyone's tickets for the Lipschitz Cruise. We then see that Susie is coming on vacation with them because her parents will be out of town. The Lipschitz cruise ship leaves without them and we Stu and Spike on a normal boat called the S.S. Nancy.
The adults get disgruntled and attempt to get on the cruise ship by sending signals and driving the boat there themselves. A large wave attacks them and it turns the ship upside- down. They get out of the rinky-dink tub, Betty opens up a life raft and they hop on there while the boat sinks. The family becomes stranded on a deserted island, and they begin disputing about how they're all gonna survive. Betty eventually becomes a leader after drawing a circle in the sand and she gets all the adults to work together as a team to find ways to survive on the island.
Meanwhile, the babies go their separate ways after Angelica scares them about how they're not gonna survive in the island. Spike runs into Eliza, and Spike starts to speak for the first time (since Eliza is capable of talking to animals) and Nigel Thornberry suffers amnesia and goes on adventures with the toddlers. Chuckie gets his clothes stolen from Donnie, and Chuckie ends up wearing his clothes as well. Angelica, since she is pretty much a b****, becomes good friends with Debbie, due to them sharing the same type of personality.
Nigel and the babies try and find the clouded leopard named Siri. The parents eventually encounter Mrs. Thornberry. Their attempt at finding the babies in the Bathosphere worked, but the fuel in there was empty, and Stu solved the problem, making him a hero at the end. The credits end with the children reuniting with their families and taking the Lipschitz Cruise back home, giving the movie a fantastic ending.

It's still better than the first movie but not as strong as the second. There aren't as many jokes that work and the story isn't as strong either. Thankfully the new characters are still great.
Rugrats Go Wild! (AKA Rugrats Meet The Wild Thornberrys Movie) (2003)
Rugrats Go Wild! is a fun movie. This movie was really entertaining, and had many exciting adventures. It was really cool seeing the Rugrats meeting The Wild Thornberrys. Debbie and Anjelica were a perfect duo,a nd the whole movie was just plain fun! I give it a 10/10.
