Barbie: Coeur de Princesse

Some of the sweetest words I've heard lately were, "Daddy, come watch Barbie with me." After she feel asleep in my arms, I finished the movie... re-wound it and watched some scenes again.

I later rented the movie again for myself... uh, err, I mean for her of coarse... okay, I have no pride.

I thought the lyrics and music were world level excellent. The delicate, innocent emotions captured by the animators were heart melting and Martin Short's voice work was hilarious.

I think if this was a more innocent time, "Arnie Roth" (composer) would be listed among the greats. Hmmmm, Rogers and Hammerstein? - maybe more still to come from this great talent.

A definite top 500 best movies of all time.

Cyclone, you are SO WRONG..I am a 35 year old mother of three, and I adore this movie! I bought it for my 3 year old daughter, and both she and my 11 year old daughter watch it every day. Even my 14 year old son got a kick out of it, although he'd NEVER admit as much! I find myself listening to the music CD, and the songs pop in my head at work every day. And you know what? That doesn't mean I have no life..it means I can have FUN! Readers, if you are contemplating renting or buying this movie, I say give it a shot! You'll be pleasantly surprised..it's very cute, entertaining and fun! Might I suggest that readers skip over Cyclone's comment, and let this movie stand for what it is..a fun, DECENT movie the whole family can enjoy!

Me and my 3 year old daughter love the Barbie movies, and this one is just as good as the others. It's Barbie's first musical, and the music, I think, is every bit as catchy as Beauty and the Beast.

I love, love, love too that Barbie isn't "rescued" by the Prince. She saves the kingdom with her intelligence - not her status or appearance!

It's funny. My Dad was over here, and I was trying to explain the plot to him. It's complicated, but doesn't seem so when you're watching it from start to finish. I think that's a sign of a good movie - it's not mindless drivel. You have to pay attention, and follow the story.

Also - the DVD comes with sing-alongs. My 3 year old especially loves those. She knows all the words to these songs.

I remember when I was 8 years old (and now I am 23) I watched this movie for the first time. Since then it's the best Barbie movie for me. Art, Characters, Story and Music, everything was great. The animation of environment with the osts are beautiful and peaceful. I never loved songs and characters of any Barbie movies more than of this one. One thing unique in Barbie movies which is loved by me is that they convey their messages through their songs, and this movie did that a lot. As princess Anneliese and Erika sings ,"Written in your heart", Barbie as Princess and the Pauper is written in my heart. Literally all the songs of this movie are my favorites, and Melissa Lyons, Julie Stevens, Mark Luna and Alessandro Juliani have done wonderful performances in doing it. Now I want to talk about the antigonist Preminger, except his villain side I love everything about him especially his humor. My laughs on him are same as I was kid. I want give the award of "Best Barbie movie villain" to Preminger. The last thing I want to talk is about moral lessons of this movie. Like typically every Barbie movie has a lesson, this movie also have and focuses on the importance of freedom, responsibilities of each individuals and friendship. The songs "Free!", "I am a girl like you" and "Written in your heart" are based on the lessons.

This movie deserves to be in the favorites of every Barbie movie fans. The amazing fact is, it actually is! Knowing that fact I say this movie is literally one of the best Barbie movie of all time (Perhaps literally the best).

I think that this movie was great, my favorite out of all Barbie movies. The songs were inspirational and i own the Princess Anneliese and Erika dolls and I'm 14. I think whoever thinks this movie is a waste of time and loses their interests then they don't have a good sense of whats good and whats not. My favorite song was the one where Princess Anneliese and Erika sing a duet. The "I'm just like you".

And Premiger hes hailarious even though hes the bad seed in the movie when sees Wolfie and he screams like a girl and those shoes they almost look like girl heels! LOL!

I think this is a great movie for any age and I strongly disagree with the woman who submitted that it wasn't awe-inspiring or whatever. i think the movie was great and she must have been blind. Personally i thought it was a laugh from a 14 year olds point of view.

Erika was my favorite character one of course shes a brunette like me. two shes more outgoing and i love her voice.

I like that blonde idiot that worked for Premiger he was so goofy i loved him!
