This was a terrific film I am not much into Barbie but i watched it with my little sister we were both amazed. I would recommend it to all little children because it is exiting and the Morrel of the story is you can do anything you believe in they will fall in love with the story because it has drama,romance and comedy in also if your children believe in fairies then they would like this film too and if you liked this one I recommend watch all the other Barbie films like 'Barbie in a Mermaids Tale' and 'Barbie Fairytopia ' 'the Barbie diaries etc so this is a perfect film for all girls who like Barbie they will truly love 'Barbie princess charm school' so watch it today !
A lot of people don't even realize the sheer number of Barbie movies there are out there. Well, I'm usually referring to the ones made in the 2000's. It seems like every direct to video animated movie is traditionally animated. It's nice to see something different. This is ranked as the best Barbie movie ever made, which isn't really saying that much. Barbie plays some woman named Blair.
Odd she'd play someone when she's already a character. She wins a contest to go to a princess school and they actually do set up the story pretty well. It's revealed that she's a missing princess herself and the rightful heir to the throne. There's this rich girl bully who redeems herself by revealing she's only that way because of her parents. That must be a trope. Not the most original idea, but it is pretty good. **1/2

Barbie: Princess Charm School is never going to be one of my favourite movies, but especially for its target audience it is very charming. It does have some moments of corny dialogue(though most of it has some nice humour that children and adults alike will appreciate), and I do miss Kelly Sheridan, who was always likable and was getting better every time. However, the animation is lovely, fluid and colourful with attention to detail that was most welcome. The music fits perfectly, and is memorable also, and the story is told very nicely with as always a good message and charming as it should be. The characters are on the clichéd side, but likable in alternative to annoying(it's when clichés are annoying when I mind). The voice acting I had little to no problem with. Overall, charming and well-done, not my favourite Barbie movie but despite Sheridan's absence is up there with the better ones. 8/10 Bethany Cox

At first, I thought it was just another Barbie movie. The same old introduction opening with montage music which just screams: movie from the 2000s. A generic premise we have seen in so many Princess movies before: "The princess was in you the whole time." And the movie even commits to the trope in the end. But truly or just as a subversion?
Midway into the first act, the movie introduces concepts, such as slavery and Portia. It unravels into a rollercoaster of emotions and plot twists, which would just simply fly over the head of any underdeveloped toddler trying to watch a movie such profound as Barbie: Princess Charm School.
This movie is a philosophical masterpiece in disguise. And it will keep you thinking, even days after your initial viewing. What did Porta mean by "Floorcake"? Where did the other fairies disappear to in the third act, were they committing war crimes? And are things truly real, when you can not imagine them?
Anyway, I am returning into your walls.

I'm going to give this a 9, not for its standing in the history of cinema, but for the simple fact that it made my three girls really, really happy - and it has good values without being prissy about it.
For girls under the age of 10 it really is entertaining.
The plot is appealing - a girl, Blair Willows, wins a lottery ticket to the Princess Charm School, and discovers her inner strength.
All I can say is we all watched this as a family movie night, and we adults normally phase out fast, but both my wife and I really enjoyed this thoroughly and the kids just loved it - it's fun, and funny, and exciting and even though you know the tie-ins are there it actually stands up as a good kids film in its own right.
Charming? You betcha.
