Barbie: A Estrela do Rock

This movie wasn't one of the first Barbie films I ever watched. As a kid, I used to watch the more popular films. When I got older, and started find out things about movies & all on my own, I watched this classic Barbie one & was amazed! I really love it!

It's not often I write reviews on IMDb on specials from past decades that would've otherwise had been lost media. I'm not quite fond of Barbie dolls or anything girly, but I found this vintage animated special interesting, especially since I'm a music lover.

Barbie and her rock band have just literally completed touring the whole world performing their music. What to do next? Barbie and her band decide to take their music to new heights...literally!

I don't think I've ever seen this cartoon when I was a child. This special, along with Barbie and the Sensations, would've made a kwazi TV series (13 episodes at the most) but it didn't really catch on. I guess viewers were more into Jem and the Holograms because they were so popular back then. The music for this Barbie special is still cool, and I'm sure there may have also been an LP or audio tape of the songs performed by Barbie and the Rockers.

Even though most of the 80's cartoons cease to exist these days, I still love this movie. Barbie has gone everywhere and done everything and to make world history decides to have a concert out in space! Getting to the concert and performing goes wonderfully until Barbie and the Rockers try to get back to earth. They end up getting back to Earth but in the wrong time period, instead of the 80's they end up in the 50's! It may sound really strange but I think if you have grown up liking Barbie and still do to see this movie.

Barbie and the rock-stars is amazing. Although my comment is not the same as the previous one. In the edition I have, Barbie and the gang have just finished their world tour and are stuck with how they could ever top it. Then as the first ambassador of world peace Barbie receives an invitation to a ball, choosing Ken as her "Prince Charming" to escort her. While there, she takes the opportunity to inform the fellow ambassadors and friends that her next mission will be a tour into outer space to promote world peace, much to the surprise of the rest of the group. It then shows the girls getting ready to perform and dressing up and the performance then going live with millions of people worldwide watching. Brings a tear to the eye :'( Very entertaining video for all the big kids out there! A Definite MUST!!!!

As a child, I loved this video. Re-visiting it after years of forgetting it and being reminded of it watching and re-watching all the Barbie movies(and such). I still liked it. It could have been longer and the dialogue for me wasn't brilliant in all honesty, but it had an interesting story with a good sense of atmosphere, music that is impossible to get out of my head, good, bright animation(though the video I watched it on was old and perhaps took away from the quality) and the characters are likable and very pretty. The voice work is solid as well.

In conclusion, a very nice video that took me back down memory lane. 8/10 Bethany Cox
