A Crossover Letdown
2 September 2020
The idea of a crossover with Rugrats and The Wild Thornberrys sounds awesome but what's disappointing is that there was barely any character development between the characters. The posters had Tommy and Eliza getting along but that never happened in the movie. It's the first Rugrats movie where the comedy was dull and relied on Bruce Willis to bring the laughs which he was hilarious and the only thing great about the movie. Susie didn't add anything which was another letdown since she always adds something in an episode. The leopard that Nigel was looking for just disappeared and never came back which made her debut add nothing to the movie. It's no wonder it's the lowest grossing and reviewed Rugrats movie. It needed a lot of rewrites and less juvenile humor. And to think the script was written by Kate Boutilier who co-wrote the best Rugrats movie, Rugrats in Paris and solely wrote The Wild Thornberrys Movie which was amazing and should have got a Best Animated Feature nomination. I guess even the best writers can make a dud. Maybe a A Grown Up and The Wild Thornberrys crossover could clean up the mess.
