Barbie's excellent musical debut features first-rate voices and songs, and a captivating story about love, responsibility, and freedom. Based on Mark Twain's The Prince and the Pauper, the 85-minute computer-animated adventure is about two almost identical girls who, though born into very different circumstances, are amazingly alike. A chance meeting between the young women becomes significant when Princess Annaliese is later kidnapped and (pauper) Erika suddenly becomes a crucial component in the search for the princess and her captor. The princess's confinement and Erika's glimpse into the life of a princess leads both girls toward a new compassion for the other and a serious contemplation of the conflict between one's sense of duty and the desire to be free. Adding to the general confusion is the princess's intended, the handsome King Dominick; her devoted tutor, Julian; and the Queen's evil advisor, Preminger. (Ages 3 to 9) --Tami Horiuchi

Great video!!.......2007-06-20

My niece is into princess and everything about princess at age 5. I stopped counting how many times she has seen this video. Simply lovely and she knows all the songs.

Great Barbie Movie For Kids Of All Ages!.......2007-04-02

This movie is very well done in animation and in story. Martin Short does a voice-over for one of the characters. It is very endearing as it gets the point across that your heart and what kind of person you are is more important than your status, be it rich or poor. It has a happy ending which is always nice!

Great movie.......2007-03-28

I think all the Barbie movies are wonderful. They all have good plots, graphics, and music. The use appropriate humor for kids. They enforce good values--like good things happen when you are courageous. And the best part: no whiny Disney princess that disobeys her father and puts the kingdom in peril to "choose her own path", "follow her heart" etc.

VERY GOOD MOVIE.......2007-03-09

ALL GIRLS WILL LOVE THIS MOVIE AND THEY LIKE TO SING WITH IT AND ACT OUT WITH THE MOVIE ALSO. SO CUTE

Great movie for all.......2007-02-24

I first rented this movie and my daughter insisted on watching it over and over again, so we bought it for her birthday. She couldn't have been happier. The movie has a great story and wonderful songs to go along with it. It has the kids dancing and singing everytime it is on. I would recommend this movie to anyone with kids.
