NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

pokee999 I find it hard to believe that these Barbie movies don't get more exposure or recognition, because I think the are all so amazing. I didn't even know that these movies existed until I let my 2 year old daughter pick out a movie at the video store. She picked Barbie & The 12 Dancing Princesses (which is also a favorite). I expected them to be silly and not to have much depth (like my son's Land Before Time movies). Boy, was I wrong! They are so good, we've bought almost all of them now.The reason I love this movie so much is that it's the ultimate love story (and not just love of a "boy & girl", but the love of family, too). It reminds me a little of the movie "Ever After" with Drew Barrymore. Sure, it's the standard 'formula' movie, but it's very satisfying and quite touching in the end (I even cried! A 40 year old woman crying watching a BARBIE movie! I can't believe I am even admitting that!). Not to mention, the songs are excellent. I am not much for musicals, but the songs in this movie really fit in. They don't just break out in song for no reason - it really meshes into the storyline (like most Disney movies I love like Beauty & The Beast and The Little Mermaid, but perhaps even more effectively than those). The woman that sings the songs also sang in the other Barbie musical movies and her voice is phenomenal.The best part about this movie is that it's not scary in any way for the small kids. My son likes Barbie in the Magic of Pegasus better (because of the scary Wenlock), but watches this one along with his sister just as intently.Keep the WONDERFUL Barbie movies coming. We are HUGE fans!

damoncthompson This movie has marginally above average animation but really excels in the music and positive messages for young girls. My dad didn't want my daughters to watch Barbie movies because of the bimbo image of Barbie but the Barbie movies contain positive role models. The scenery and voices are a nice addition to the overall movie and my daughters really enjoy the characters. Songs are well sung and catchy for the kids and generously added through the movie. The plots in all these movies are basically the same which actually seems to help my girls follow what's going on. The girl seems to always become a princess and marry a prince but very positive messages about fairness and kindness are ingrained with being royalty so I'm happy to let me daughters watch these movie.

Shanz this was such a great movie, I'm 17 and i still like watching Barbie movies they put such a good message across for children, this time the prince chooses the girl with personality not just looks, the songs are gorgeous the voices all go well with the movie, the women who sing all the songs in this movie have beautiful voices especially when Ro and her mother sing the lullaby,the people who voice all these characters suit there characters perfectly. i love the end song the best just before the credits, especially the lines "there may be miracles awaiting, they may be closer than we know, when we have love to guide us as we go" "you never know when you'll find,what your heart is yearning for, all you seek could be there, just a breath away" " now that i've seen the world around me, now that the answers all are clear, old concerns behind me,new adventures near, i know a chance can be worth taking, and that a family can grow,when we have love to guide us as we go"

melrtim That dang Barbie does it again! So far, this is the best Barbie movie to date. All the bright colors and the story line is amazing! My almost 3 and 5 year old love it....and their Mom does too!! The animals are cute. The characters are believable. The story is great! And there are fun lessons to be learned. I'm a sucker for happy endings....and this movie definitely has one. The songs are pretty and fun to sing along with. We just bought this yesterday and have watched it 6 or 7 times already! As lame as it sounds, I almost got teary eyed when Ro found her Mom. The woman who sings as Barbie has such a beautiful voice! This is a must own movie! Can't wait for the next one in Spring!
