Barbie As The Princess and the Pauper :: 0961963417
Description
| Product Description |
|
| 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.

We have the first five Barbie movies and this one is definitely my daughters' favorite. They love the story and the characters and I love that there are two female protagonists so they can each play one. The music is really very good and the cd with the songs is a fun extra.
My only complaint is the colors - they're a bit bright and garish, especially the castle. It's a little hard on the eyes. I wish the artists who make these movies would explore the color palette, even little girls will appreciate colors other than pink and purple.
But colors aside, it's a wonderful movie. Four thumbs up from my girls.

It is simply fabulous! I like the cool graphics and animations! Barbie is in a dual role as Princess and a pauper. I have brown hair and brown eyes like Erika the pauper but I think that Annelise is prettiest! I think King Dominick is the most handsome and romantic, though. Annelise wants to be free and she doesn't like doing her daily lessons but she gets BREAKFAST IN BED!!! Erika wants to be like Annalise and be a princess. Barbie is very pretty in both roles. Here is some more helpful information:
Special features:
You can choose a chapter that you were up to last time and you can 'sing with barbie'. You can have a preview look at the songs, too! The special features were better with 'Barbie in the Nutcracker', but this is still COOL!!!
Clothes:
Mainly pretty dresses. Erika is poor but I adore her aqua blue dress, but not as much as Annelise's sparkly baby pink dress! (I ADORE pink!) They are covered with frilly bits and roses and all kinds of pretty stuff!
Make-up:
Hardly any! Just a dab of blusher and a sprinkle of eye-shadow here and there! But Barbie is spotless! (she must use moisterising cream!)
Time:
Over an hour, and thats an hour of watching a VERY enjoyable and relaxing film, with songs that simply stick into your mind!
The time it is SET IN is not too modern, because you don't get too much princesses nowadays and not a huge palace. They speak modern, though! But the houses aren't too modern either, and the dress shop that Erika works in doesn't have any modern machines in.
Brightness:
Nice and colourful, as with all Barbie films, but not too dark so you stare, or too bright so you squint!
Compactness:
Well, the DVD is small, so it is easier to carry around than a video, but it is still rather large.
Goodies:
You get a little magazine tucked inside the case! It is small but it tells you good Princess & the pauper toys and magical pink blurbs about the toys and BEAUTIFUL animated pictures on CGI! I like that little mag!
Durability:
So far, my disk hasn't a single scratch! It can't be handled by toddlers, though, because they would smudge it with greasy small fingers or snap it!
So, I say, GET THIS!

I am 27 yrs old and i dont have any kids, i am still a kid at heart and I loved Barbie Growing up, in 2001 when the Nutcracker came out i thought wow that looks so cute and the animation looks adorable, and since i grew up w/ Barbie I had to have it. I was hooked after watching it and have been collecting all of the movies. Its so nice to sit in bed and watch a really cute animated barbie movie and it makes u feel like a kid again. I feel so happy at the end of the movies just like i did as a kid. The Princess and the Pauper has a GREAT story to it the characters are adorable, I just loved it. Young or Old everyone can enjoy these movies.
