Holly on Hollywood
“Ugly Dolls”
by Holly McClure

The “UglyDolls” live in Uglyville, a weird looking town where reject toys live. Based on a popular line of plush toys from 2001, the storyline focuses on pink Moxy (voices by Kelly Clarkson) who dreams of going to the ‘Big World’ and becoming the toy of a human child who will love her. She brings her loyal friends with her and they discover the Institute of Perfection, which is under the total control of super handsome uber-doll Lou (Nick Jonas), where dolls go to become perfect. Blake Shelton also stars.

The PG rating is for some mature themes and mixed messages that feel a little too mature for younger children. A couple of songs and characters tell the toys they’re unworthy if they’re “ugly” but the toys learn they’re worthy of love despite their unconventional looks.  A few characters are stereotyped as “mean girls” and there’s a moment when Lou moves down a line of dolls, explaining why each is unacceptably imperfect, so there are several mixed messages about looks and self-worth that parents may object to. The characters are colorful but honestly… It wasn’t very appealing to me. The songs are catchy (I love Kelly’s voice) and in the end, Perfection and Uglyville merge and everyone learns to love and accept themselves. And Moxy finally gets her happy ending – a family and a child to love her.
