Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.
vphawkeye233 This Movie's about 12 Beautiful Princesses who love to Dance until the King summons his Cousin the Duchess(Of Doom)to teach the Princesses how to be Proper Young ladies, But the Duchess makes the Princesses lives miserable by banning Dancing, Singing, and everything the Princesses love dear from the castle. But not all was lost when the Girls had their Mother's story about a Magical Kingdom Comfort them after the Duchess made some changes around the castle (Including the Girls wardrobe) later that night the Girls discover a magical world where wishes come true through the Mosaic of their bedroom floor. The Girls were having fun dancing for Two nights unaware that the Duchess has poisoned the princesses father so she could be Queen, and it was up to the Princesses and the Handsome royal Cobbler Derek put a stop to the Duchess's evil plans! My favorite part of the Movie is when the Princesses go into the Magical Kingdom sometimes I wish I could go there.
jolene-21 I feel that this movie is different from so many others in that it shows a family of girls who actually care about each other. They may have faults, but bitterness and put-downs have no place with these girls. Try to find that on TV or in the usual movies. It is a breath of fresh air to see girls being feminine--wearing beautiful, feminine dresses and shoes. Contrast that with the apparel in stores today, i.e. raggedy and faded jeans and jackets, etc. The story line has an evil thread running through but that is what makes it more realistic and interesting. I know that it is animated, but it still gives you a feeling that families can stick together and come out okay. I would recommend this movie for boys and girls alike.
peace9-1 This is a nicely-done story with pretty music, lots of dancing, lots of big sister/little sister interaction (almost all of it positive), and lots of wishes granted. There are funny moments that older children and adults will enjoy, such as when King Randolph exclaims, "They're just SHOES! Aren't they?" And tender moments such as when Princess Genevieve comforts her youngest sister, Lacey, after a blunder.The animation is perhaps not as good as Disney, but it still is very good. The facial expressions are nuanced, particularly for Genevieve, King Randolph, Duchess Rowena and her servant, Derek the cobbler, and little Princess Lacey. My only quibble on the animation is in the dance sequences where the dancing princesses become absolute carbon copies of each other without the slightest deviation -- even the three youngest copy the dance steps perfectly. I would have liked to see a little more individualism in the dancing, considering that these girls are not professional ballerinas or chorus dancers.The resolution of the story is handled cleverly to get rid of a villainess without actually hurting her. There is some violence done to guards in the story, and the villainess's monkey is mean to other animals in the story.My 4-year-old daughter loves this movie and has watched it repeatedly, and I have found it to be quite acceptable for her to watch.
KarnivorousKeyz This is a new Barbie movie. The graphics were really good. They made the movie seem partially realistic. I used to do ballet and this movie made me want to continue it. This movie was kind of like a Cinderella movie but a little bit different. A father of 12 princesses gets very sick. His cousin poisons him and wants the throne. The girls find a secret magical land thanks to their dead mother's stories. Its up to them to save their father and society. With the help of their handsome prince. It was a funny movie and me and my friend had fun watching it. We enjoyed it a lot and also enjoyed the Indian talking parrot. The music was very nice and made the movie even greater. It had a great classical orchestra. The voices were great and the characters were adorably sweet and cute. I liked it so enjoy the movie its great for the family. All in all I'd watch it again.
