UglyDolls
UglyDolls is a 2019 animated musical adventure-comedy film directed by Kelly Asbury and written by Alison Peck, from a story by Robert Rodriguez, who also produced. It is based on the plush toys of the same name by David Horvath and Sun-Min Kim, and follows a group of them as they try to find owners in the "Big World" despite their flaws. The film stars the voices of Kelly Clarkson, Janelle Monáe, Blake Shelton, Wanda Sykes, Gabriel Iglesias, Wang Leehom, Nick Jonas, and Pitbull.
UglyDolls was theatrically released by STX Films, the first animated film produced by the company. It received negative reviews from critics and grossed $32 million worldwide, and was the last film directed by Kelly Asbury, who died in June 2020 from cancer.
In a hidden universe within a toy factory, deformed dolls, or UglyDolls, are dropped into a tunnel leading to the secluded town of Uglyville. Among these dolls is Moxy, who dreams of the 'Big World' and being loved by a child, despite Uglyville's Mayor Ox assuring her this concept is a myth. One day, Moxy and her shy advisor friend Lucky Bat talk about the big world; inspired by this conversation, Moxy and Lucky, followed by the town's cynical baker Wage, easy-going Ugly Dog, and soft-hearted giant Babo, journey up the tunnel.
The UglyDolls discover the Institute of Perfection where its vain and superficial leader of the Perfect Dolls (or "Pretties") Lou tells the UglyDolls that they have no chance of passing the Gauntlet - an obstacle course based on a human house that determines if a doll may use the portal to the Big World. Lou eventually allows them to train for the Gauntlet, but sends his three Spy Girls to find out where Moxy's group came from.
The UglyDolls' first days of training end in disaster. Mandy, one of the Pretties with poor eyesight and a reluctance to wear glasses for fear of being labeled ugly, sympathizes with the UglyDolls and gives them some pointers on how to become a Perfect Doll.
The Spy Girls return with a kidnapped Ox who admits to Moxy that he knew about the Big World as he had once trained for the Gauntlet and nearly passed before the Pretties turned on him. Lou sent him down the tunnel, claiming he thought it led to safety, where Ox found the recycling center. Seeing other dolls like himself being shredded, he rerouted the tunnel and founded Uglyville at the other end.
Demoralized by the realization that they are factory rejects, the entire town of Uglyville falls into despair and Moxy resigns herself to her fate. Mandy visits and encourages Moxy to keep her faith, as it has given all the imperfect Pretties hope that they might succeed. Moxy and Mandy are then ambushed by the Spy Girls and taken to Lou, who has unblocked the recycling center. He breaks Mandy’s glasses, and leaves her and Moxy to be shredded. Ox rallies the UglyDolls to rescue the pair.
The entire population of Uglyville arrives at the institute on the day of the Gauntlet. Moxy, Mandy, and several Uglies demand to be allowed to participate. Lou announces he and several others will run with them, secretly planning to sabotage their chances. After the Uglies and Lou make it to the end, they are stopped by a robotic baby. Lou kicks the baby and advances to the finish line, but Moxy and the other UglyDolls stop to comfort the baby as it cries. The system automatically passes them, as a doll's true purpose is to make a child happy. After failing despite completing the course, Lou admits he is forbidden to leave the factory as he is a prototype, and had sabotaged Ox out of jealousy. He then destroys the portal to the human world, but the Uglies and Pretties work together to build a new portal that does not require any training to pass through. They combine their towns into the City of Imperfection, still led by Mayor Ox. Moxy finally passes through the portal and is gifted to a child, Maizy, who has the same missing tooth as she does.
