I am a huge fan of Barbie, and when I saw the trailer, I got so excited. I ordered it the day it came out. And I’ve loved it! Barbie stars as Corinne, Teresa stars as Viveca, Nikki as Renee, and Summer (who looks like Melody off of Diamond Castle) stars as Aramina. It has way more action than any of the previous Barbie movies. I loved the music, the animation, everything! The animation has changed so much since Barbie’s first movies. The storyline is good, I’ve enjoyed other plots better, but it’s still great. There are a few cheesy moments, were I was like ‘yeah right’ and the three little girls I babysit were cheering and whooping. (now they all want to be musketeers, so we’re training!) It has a little bit of romance, not the kind I like, but it was still sweet. I love Aramina, who fights with her fans (that scene were she’s battling a swordsman is really cool.) Viveca’s weapons would be the most fun, I think, but she doesn’t use them enough. Corinne is the best swordsman, yes, but it seems she relies more on her AMAZING athletic abilities. Renee, I was disappointed in, she only had a tiny slingshot, not the crossbow I thought she used. (and against these clashing swords and swirling ribbons, her weapon doesn’t look too great.) I didn’t like the sappy, weak, dreamer prince. Couldn’t he have fought a little??? I wish they could have had a better blend, where the men and women fought equally, not the girls are better. It’s like women’s rights taken so far, that pretty soon we’ll have a Men’s Suffrege movement! This is NOT a classic Barbie movie. It’s good, and I love it, but it’s VERY different. Lately, everything about Barbie has been changing, and while I generally dislike change, this one was actually a fairly nice one. I was disappointed in Thumbelina, and, truthfully, somewhat in Diamond Castle. I miss the older style of Barbie movies, with real romance and dance and true girlishness. Diamond Castle was good, the boys were handsome (for animation) and they at least TRIED to fight… but it was somewhat lacking. This one was a good blend of those classic basics and modern music with action and adventure. It could have used some work, though. Overall, it was enjoyable and the little girls I’ve watched it with enjoyed it, so 5 stars.

I play this before every meal and immediately lose my appetite. That is how sickening this movie is! Just listen to the trailer: “Can this dare to dream team use their girlpower to save the day?” Here comes the nausea again.
And what’s with the swords, not a single character is impaled with one of these swords. They might as well be hairbrushes in those scabbards. This movie is all about posing in sexy boots and pretty outfits.
This movie could also be used to induce vomiting.

I have most of the other Barbie movies [just for my own guilty pleasure, no kids in my household anymore] and I have to say that this is the weakest of the lot.
The Prince is a sad excuse for a masculine protagonist and dragging Barbie so far out of any recognizable female role just destroys all believability in the movie. Have the writers run out of all credible female roles for Barbie to play that they must resort to having her do “crouching tiger, hidden tiger” type moves in mini-skirts in what is supposed to be pre-Revolutionary France?
Please, give us more on the order of the Twelve Dancing Princesses, Rapunzel, Swan Lake, or the Magic of Pegasus. Oh, and leave the cutesy modern lingo behind — responding “sure” when the Prince asks Corinne to dance isn’t hip, it’s just stupid.

My younger daughter has enjoyed the movie, like other Barbie movies as she can relate to old fairytales that I grew up with!!!!

We have all the Barbie movies at our home and rank this among the top ones. It was visually well done and the music was modern. Another A++ (which I think is a Barbie movie first!!) is that one of the girls (Renee) is African American. I think that was a wonderful addition and feel it was about daggone time!
