What to Know

Critics Consensus

Although it may serve as a passing diversion for very young viewers, The Oogieloves fails to offer much more than several brightly colored examples of the worst stereotypes of modern children's entertainment.

Amy Biancolli San Francisco Chronicle The whole thing runs about an hour too long: It should have been a TV show. The adventure's too big for the kids who would love it the most. Rated: 1/4 Aug 31, 2012 Full Review Rafer Guzman Newsday If only there were something on screen to keep your adult brain from dissolving into strained peas. Rated: 2/4 Aug 31, 2012 Full Review Geoff Berkshire Variety A prime contender for most peculiar wide release of the year. Aug 30, 2012 Full Review Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens [T]he perfect interactive adventure for the young and the young at heart. Nov 27, 2019 Full Review Erick Weber Final Cut on Film Forget Saw, I'd argue this is the most freakishly disturbing outing of Cary Elwes career. Rated: F Sep 5, 2012 Full Review Ken Hanke Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) I am somewhat hesitant to attempt to describe this...peculiar concoction for fear of being accused of base mendacity. Rated: .5/5 Sep 4, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

Pillow R My braincells may be hurting watching this, but the level of nostalgia makes it worth it Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/21/24 Full Review david This is a super ultra mega trashy movie Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/10/24 Full Review christopher c. m All this because the head of the American distributor of the Teletubbies wanted to make a Teletubby movie. Somehow I doubt a the movie would be any better with the Teletubbies instead of the Oogiloves. Speaking as someone who remembers his childhood pretty well, even as a 5 year old I still would have hated these terrible annoying condescending dorks. And the whole idea of an interactive movie in theaters was a bad idea. But other media for little-little kids like "Sesame Street", the "Electric Company" or hell, "Mr. Rogers" didn't feel like they were talking down to kids. Kids media today, like this turd or "Barney and Friends" or "Dora The Explorer" really treat kids like morons. But this turd isn't even educational. How the hell did the Oogiloves get Christopher Lloyd, Cloris Leachman and Toni Braxton? I really don't care if I'm not the target audience. I don't care if this for basically toddlers. This is nothing but condescending pandering noise that no human being should see. This is no passion project this is a cash in on annoying pop culture kiddie stuff.

And the songs are annoying! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Nothing in this movie is necessarily inappropriate for kids, but at the same time, it's incredibly stupid and offers nothing of real value.
