When is UglyDolls coming to Amazon Video, DVD and Blu-Ray?
By Mads Lennon
If your kids were looking for something new to watch this weekend, you might have taken them to see UglyDolls. When can you buy it on DVD or Blu-Ray?
UglyDolls is a new animated musical-comedy film based on a line of plush toys. The “Uglydoll” collection was started in 2001. They used to be a hot commodity and were sought after by collectors in the same way beanie babies once were.
The movie’s story is about the town of Uglyville where the UglyDolls leave the safety of their home to go on an adventure and discover what it means to be different and how being different can be beautiful. The movie has a nice moral to send to its audience.

STX Entertainment took a risk with the film as it is the company’s first ever computer-animated feature. Did it pay off? Not quite.
Despite boasting a pretty famous cast (including Kelly Clarkson, Charli XCX, Pitbull, Emma Roberts, Wanda Sykes, Janelle Monáe, Lizzo, Blake Shelton, and Nick Jonas) UglyDolls failed to make a splash critically or financially. That said, even though critics didn’t love the movie, audiences were more amenable. The audience score is much higher than the critical score on Rotten Tomatoes.
For the most part, parents just want to take their kids to a movie they’ll enjoy. If UglyDolls did the trick then you might want to figure out when you can take the movie home to be rewatched on a loop.
Like I mentioned with the other STX Entertainment release from this weekend, Poms, STX tends to be a little harder to pin down in terms of DVD/Blu-Ray release date estimation. If UglyDolls is on a similar schedule to Poms, we can probably expect it to be available for purchase by the end of September at the latest with a late August or early September premiere on Amazon Video.
