    Stylized doll show is wrong for tweens it targets.

Why We Rated This on for Ages 9 and Up

What to watch out for

  • Messages:

    For a show aimed at kids, there's a lot of back-stabbing and rude behavior. Burdine Maxwell ridicules Jade and the Tweevils, who try to steal Chloe's new guy (who seems happy to be flirting with them). The Bratz sneak into a club, lying their way in. Chloe dumps her friends for a boy.
  • Violence:

    One male character shoves a bouncer to get into a club; another gets jealous and imagines his romantic competitor's head exploding. Lots of bossing around on the part of Burdine Maxwell, the magazine editor.
  • Sex:

    Chloe flirts with a British boy who later turns out to be rude. Another boy falls on top of Chloe by accident and brings up love.
  • Language:

    Lots of slang -- "super scorchin' guy," "whatever" -- and words like "lame-o," "loser," "moron," and "jerk."
  • Consumerism:

    Based on the popular dolls. Characters are big into consumerism (buying outfits, shoes, etc.). Ads for Bratz CDs and movies in Special Features area of the DVD.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Bratz: Rock Angelz

Parents need to know that this movie may look fresh and fun to young girls who buy the dolls, but the themes presented are questionable for their age group. For example: A fashion editor thinks eating carbs makes her "look fat," the girls sneak into clubs, and one character has had three nose jobs. The plot centers around the Bratz's goal of publishing their own fashion magazine, which will have such supposedly "helpful" articles as how to tell if your boyfriend is a dud and ways to be a "fashion do." There's also plenty of back-stabbing and rude behavior throughout. The Bratz kids love to go shopping and spend money on clothes, and your kids can do a little pre-shopping for more Bratz stuff (CDs, etc.) in the Special Features section of the DVD.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about what makes the Bratz appealing at first glance, and what's not so appealing about them. Are they individualistic, or do they look and talk alike? Do they look and act like most teens? Why are there hardly any references to parents? Is the way they live realistic? Do you think they can afford to stay in a loft by themselves, or jet off to London at a moment's notice? What can be learned from their friendships?
