The most popular fashion dolls in America make the leap to the big screen in this live-action adventure that follows four diverse teenage girls who make the jump from middle school to high school, only to find that their four-part friendship doesn't fit into the rigid clique system at their new institution. Fed up with being torn apart, the girls each reject the their respective cliques and reclaim their own group where friendship takes precedence over popularity. Unfortunately, this causes the

Voight never loses touch with his prosthetic nose, perhaps hoping he won't be recognized.
Not that I was expecting much out of a movie based on a line of dolls, but this is an amateur production that should have gone straight to basic cable.
A silly movie that's essentially a series of clichés strung together into a semblance of a movie.
Bratz is a disappointment because the characters come off less as the girly superheroes they should be, and more as, well, brats.
The proud owners of Bratz dolls almost surely have had more imaginative fantasies about them than anything onscreen.
[An] excruciatingly inane high-school comedy inspired by a line of sexually suggestive dolls aimed at 9-year-old girls.
Sadly, the fact that it's attached to a successful toyline means it barely matters whether it's good or not.
The flashy foursome seemingly insist from the outset that they're no Barbies. Or are they.
Clique chicks gone wild, and Angelina Jolie estranged dad Jon Voight gets the last laugh when it comes to dressing down DNA-sharing divas.
By right Bratz should have had no potential at all. Yet it is still disappointing to see the handful of clever ideas and heartfelt themes smothered by corporate, focus-group filmmaking.
Material girls in immaterial comedy for tweens.
Lessons about friendship and tolerance in this live-action toy story are sidelined in favour of a desire to increase unit sales.
A cloying, tween-oriented confection that clearly doesn't think much of its target audience.
Whoever thought that "Bratz" deserved the attention of this screenplay should be spanked.
Bratz (freaky looking teen dolls for girls whose parents won't let them play with real teenagers) is now a high school movie made for people in Grade 6.
Bad even by the low standards of its genre.
The ultracommercialized result of taking a lucrative doll line and feeding it through the Disney Channel actress-singer hyphenate starlet machine.
It's all rather flat and inept.
An utterly harmless time-passer, but one which has little appeal beyond its target audience.
Apparently Jon Voight can do worse than "Baby Geniuses 2"
Mother of God, where do they make this shit, they not only ruined source material, but they have created a movie that looks ad sounds like crap.

I only watched this because I was a big fan of the Bratz but at the age I'm at now it wasn't very good.
