The Island Princess

2008-10-08
To tell you the truth I haven't watched this one yet. I bought it for my granddaughter and she loves it, so does my daughter and the other grandmother. I have seen a couple of the other Barbie movies and they are very good. I usually don't like animated movies but the animation in these movies is beautiful, plus the stories are excellent. They really hold your attention. My daughter said this is one of the better ones.

Disney quality production!

When I first heard of Barbie movies, I thought they would stink. I am really tired of Snow White, so I decided to get Barbie and the Island Princess for my 3.5 year old. It is really good! The plot is good, the music is good, the animation is really bright and colorful. This is a great movie for any girl who enjoys princesses - except unlike the usual simpering, helpless princess, Barbie solves her own problems and is extremely bright. 5 stars.

My girls love it!

My girls (ages 4 and 2) love this. It has excellent musical selections. My girls do not just sit and watch this, they are dancing and singing along.

Perfect for Princesses

I purchased this DVD for my granddaughter because she loves her Island Princess Barbie so much and she loves this movie as much she gets her doll and they watch it together and sing.It is not real actors and it is not a cartoon it is computer generated like Shrek.

Wow, I'm surprisingly impressed

I have to say that I was blown away. I was a little "iffy" about even letting my daughter be introduced to Barbie, since the barbie I thought I knew was vain. The graphics, the music, the story, the Integrity, as another reviewer said, are all incredible. I tried to buy the music right away (haven't figured out if I even can, though). Anyway, the Barbie in this movie is anything but vain; in fact, I am happy with the morals taught in this movie-friendship, loyalty, grace, and perserverance, among others. I also like how the girl who was supposed to marry the prince was pleasant and gorgeous--that was surprising. The prince doesn't just fall for some girl because she was pretty and nice-he fell in love with Rosella because they were compatible. That's another good lesson.

Great Movie with a Strong Central Character

I was on the fence as far as Barbie is concerned but I found that this movie was entertaining and well done. Barbie plays a smart & strong character. My 3 year old daughter loves this movie.

Love It!

My daughter who is 3, absolutely loves this Barbie movie even over Barbie Mariposa. I love this movie because I don't have to worry about any of the content. It's clean all around. We even have the soundtrack to this movie and the soundtrack is exactly like the songs in the movies.

A Cut Above the Rest

Being a child care employee, I have seen every Barbie movie made, except Fairytopia and Mermaidia. And Barbie as the Island Princess is one I would watch even if I wasn't in child care. The music is memorable and fun to learn. The animation and color is vibrant and inviting. The characters are full-fleshed, not the 2D characters of old. I'm not talking about animation style, I'm talking personality. They have problems BEYOND that of Ariana's scheming. We have culture shock, homesickness, plotting, jealousy, and that's WITHOUT Ariana. Barbie began a tradition of wholesome family entertainment, succeeding where Disney now fails (as much as it hurts me to say it)

adorable
