A Great Story and a Visual Treat
I got this for my 7 year old daughter, who has most of the other Barbie animated movies. I watched it with her, and I enjoyed it just as much as she did. It has an excellent story, an excellent message, and wonderful visuals.
Although this film is now several years old, the animation is probably one of the best in the computer-animated Barbie movie series. The textures are finely detailed -- from the sets to the wardrobes to the faces. Movements and expressions are exceptionally fluid and extremely lifelike -- at times, you'll forget you're watching something computer animated. The dresses and skirts move in a natural fashion as the girls dance -- there is nothing stiff about this animation at all. It is a pleasure to watch.
The music is also very enjoyable, especially through a sound system. The classical music and original themes really add to the overall atmosphere of the production. The music is probably my favorite part of this film.
The characters are enjoyable -- you have your typical villain and sidekick, some comic animals, a prince, and the princesses. Voice acting is superb and believable. The story is written at a child's level, with enough sophistication for adults to enjoy.

Even her brother enjoyed it!
My 3-year old daughter choose to rent Barbie in the 12 Dancing Princesses at our local video store this weekend. She does not have any Barbies, just has an interest in anything pink, princesses or ballerinas.
Much to her twin brother's protest (and reassurance that he could play dinosaurs in the other room), we were able to start the movie.
The colors and visual details of this movie are amazing. It is really enhanced by HDTV. The dancing is beautiful and the story is great, emphasizing that a girl should be herself and each person has something special to contribute to this world.
Her mom (me), never having been a girly-girl and actually popped the head off her first and only Barbie, watched the entire movie alongside her, completely entranced.
And wouldn't you know, her brother sat down about 5 minutes into it and watched intensely as well. He claims to just like the cat and the bird in the movie. After all, his dad told him that boys don't like princesses. "Princesses are for girls." HA!
Santa will definately be purchasing this movie and possibly the first Barbie after viewing this.

A Big Hit
My granddaughter was so excited to get this for her birthday from us. She loves the Dancing Princesses and age 4 and dances around the room while she's watching the show.

Very cute and entertaining movie for little girls
What more do you need...it has Barbie, Ballet and a Prince. Little girls, including mine are captivated by this movie. It has all the attributes that young girls love!
Great buy!

This is my daughters' favorite movie!
This movie is a favorite at our home. The music in it is wonderful, as is the dancing. It has been professionally choreographed. My daughters (ages 4 and 2) imitate every dance move and know the words to the songs. In one scene, their daddy plays the role of the hero and dances with them. It has actually been a bonding experience for them. It, like other Barbie movies, has a very good message about doing what is right, learning from your mistakes, and the importance of being yourself.

A good present
I bought this for my 5 year old niece and she loved it. She loves anything about barbies, so I knew I couldn't go wrong buying it...

Good Movie
Hi there,
I've reviewed several barbie items on here from time to time and this is the most recent. I am a barbie collector and dealer and I got this so I could find out more about this line of dolls. First off.. its a good story and a good movie. The morals, Maturity, Creativity, Believeing in one's self, and loyalty to family, are all good for kids to know and are not done in such a way as to make grown ups like my self want to Heave.
I find the animation really well done, however I do have to say that the animation in the Fairytoipa line is better done, and the stories are a bit better than this to.
Still its a good way to enertain your young girls and keep them outta the summer sun or winter cold for a hour or so, and something that they will like.
The dolls are a nice addition if a Tad over done, 12 is a lot of dolls people. But the main character is a beauty and one that is worth adding to the collection, tho again its not as nice as the fairytopia dolls which I am rather partial to.
As for the mothers out there who worry that barbie will give thier little one self esteem issues, or body image problems, this one is realativly safe, the barbies in this are not over done and while still a bit skinner than normal look healthy not Super model unrealistic.
So if you little one is fond of dancing, she will like his movie and the dolls that go with.
cheers.
