Faulty DVD

The DVD was faulty. It would stop multiple times during the movie and skip very important scenes. My family and I were trying to enjoy the movie but it ended up difficult and frustrating instead. Disappointed because I planned on keeping this Barbie DVD to watch once in a while but seems like it was useless. Read full review...

Great film on par with the best.

Loved this film. Bought for kids not knowing anything about it. It’s got adventure, story, catchy songs and great characters. Other than the ‘normal’ graphics, the film is on par with the top Disney Pixar greats and I thought this film deserves much more publicity that it had.Read full review...

Ideal

Great dvd, 4year old daughter loves it.
Rosella (barbie) is shipwrecked on an island and groes up with the animals, (think jungle book). Prince antonio finds her and they live happily ever after! Lots of good songs for little one to sing along to!Read full review...

Another great Barbie movie

Great entertainment to keep the kids quiet.
They didn't move at all whilst watching Barbie.
Recommended especially if you're baby sitting.

Good film

While the animation in Barbie as the Island Princess looks a little bit computerized and is not of the highest quality, the movie is fabulously colorful and the animals are adorable. A beautiful tropical island and an enchanting castle create the perfect settings for a movie geared toward little girls, and beautiful princesses in ball gowns add to the royal excitement. Beyond the animation, the music is surprisingly good, and for girls in the targeted age group, the story is captivating. In other words. little girls will adore this movie.

In the story, Barbie plays the part of the adventurous and kind animal-loving Princess Rosella. Rosella exemplifies qualities such as kindness, honesty, and selflessness. The other beautiful princess in the film, Princess , is also kind and chooses to be honest. Her mother, however, is quite the opposite and in one scene commands her daughter to go and make herself prettier.

As is to be expected in a Barbie movie, there is a heavy emphasis on beauty and wardrobe, but the movie creators have tried to temper this emphasis with an even stronger focus on positive character traits. Additionally, while the movie is a a typical fairy tale love story, the prince clearly chooses his bride-to-be based on her character and the things they have in common.Read full review...
