UglyDolls

This movie definitely gives a positive message to the kids. Don't let your appearance/looks define who you are. Don't give up your dreams even though you are lack of something. Most important don't judge a book by its cover. This movie is not the best animation but for sure good message through out the movie.

People who are giving 10/10...come on now...this doesn't compare to Inside Out, Zootopia, Toy Story, Lion King etc Was it terrible...no but it was missing something. Yes the message was good but could have been delivered more powerfully and the best part was definitely all the musical scenes. So at least a 6 is fair.

The message is positive and the songs are catchy. I think some of the ratings given by adults are unfair. I'm not sure where how it's been rated 'severe' for violence. It's a kids cartoon, not The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Any frightening scenes and violence in this film are certainly no worse than some of the scenes in Disney films. My daughter was 4 when she first saw this, she's quite sensitive and didn't show any signs that she was disturbed by what she saw. If your child can handle the gore-fest that is Snow White, then they will be just fine with this film.

I sat down to watch the 2019 animated movie "UglyDolls" with my nine year old son, as he had been wanting to see it for some time.

Now, usually I do like animated movie, but "UglyDolls" just never caught on with me. The storyline was just too bland and unimaginative, and the entire character gallery was just rubbish.

I will say that the animation itself and the CGI was quite good, so the movie does harvest some points there. And it also scores some points for some good voice acting. But the rest of the movie was just less than mediocre.

Even my nine year old son, whom had really been looking forward to watching this animated movie, wasn't particularly thrilled or entertained by the outcome of the movie. It was just not outstanding and it lacked comedy elements to spice it up.

Furthermore, there was just way too much singing in this animated movie for my liking. It felt like you were sitting through another Disney animation.

All in all, "UglyDolls" is a less than mediocre animated movie. However, I am sure that it will find a home with the younger audience perhaps around 6 years old or so.

Uglyville is where all the discarded defective dolls are gathered. They live a happy life with limited knowledge of the bigger world. Moxy (Kelly Clarkson) dreams of being a little girl's doll. She and other Uglydolls escape to the Institute of Perfection where dolls try to be more perfect in order to be placed with perfect children.

With Chinese financing and some good voice talent, this movie has a chance at being the next Trolls. It's got the bright colors and pop forgettable songs. The problem seems to be that it doesn't the fun energy. It also doesn't have JT pushing it. The bigger problem is moving away from Uglyville. It seems to be a fascinating place and a much more fun place to explore than the Institute of Perfection. While I appreciate the premise of being individuals and accepting your imperfections, that place drains the fun out of the movie. That's the crux of the problem. It's not much fun.
