The Rugrats Movie is a 1998 animated film, produced by Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Movies. Based on the animated long running Nickeloden series Rugrats, this film introduced Tommy's baby brother Dil Pickles, who was named after Didi Pickles's cousin, and appeared on the Rugrats TV series the next year.
This is considered the darkest of the Rugrats trilogy of films, due to its tone and aspects of the storyline (babies lost in dangerous woods, interior conflicts between the group over being lost and Dil himself, and so forth) being radical departures from the series' usual light-hearted appeal. There are some mixed opinions on The Rugrats Movie as a result.
Tommy faces responsiblity when Dil, his new baby brother is born. As with all newborns, the child becomes a bane to Tommy and the rest of his gang. Even Phil and Lil don't like them. So they decide to return Dil to where he came from, the hospital. But they get lost along the way, REALLY lost, and get into even more trouble with a circus. Can they find their way home and can Tommy and Dil just get along? Written by Quentin R.
