Two of the most popular animated series on the
children's cable network
Nickelodeon get wrapped up in one big-screen package in this
comedy-
adventure, featuring the characters from
Rugrats and
The Wild Thornberrys.
Drew and
Didi Pickles (voices of
Michael Bell and
Melanie Chartoff) decide to take a special vacation with their children,
Tommy (voice of
Elizabeth Daily) and
Angelica (voice of
Cheryl Chase), with their friends (both grown-ups and toddlers) coming along for the ride. However, the ship
Drew has chartered isn't especially seaworthy, and their party ends up stranded on an uncharted island in the Pacific. The kids figure the day is saved when they discover that famous explorer and television personality
Sir Nigel Tornberry (voice of
Tim Curry) is also on the island with his family, but after he gets a world-class knock on the head from a coconut,
Nigel's upper intellectual register gets knocked out of commission. The Rugrats are then forced to turn to
Nigel's daughter,
Eliza (voice of
Lacey Chabert), who not only knows the wilds, but can talk to animals, which comes as quite a surprise to
Spike (voice of
Bruce Willis), the Pickles' family pooch.
Rugrats Go Wild also features the voice talents of
LL Cool J,
Cree Summer,
Nancy Cartwright,
Jack Riley, and
Flea.
