Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper (DVD, 2004, Includes Bonus CD)

My review comes from my daughters love for the movie.

Most any little girl will imagine herself as a princess while watching and singing along with the movie. A very charming feature.

Very cute "out-takes". Be sure to watch throught the credits.

My daughter was thrilled with this movie--the songs throughout the movie got her on her feet and dancing and singing. And of course, she asked for the dolls at Christmas.

I liked this movie. Showed morals about responsiblity and duty. My daughter loves it as with the other Barbie movies. The singing is wonderful and uplifting. Great spin on the classic story.

I know this movie is from 2004, but I love this movie. It is great, I would never say it is a spin off of the Prince & The Pauper like others may say. It is a wonderful musical that the whole family would enjoy if watched. It is a story of love, friendship, and adventure. I don't understand the reasons why they decided to say the Pauper in this movie was played by Barbie doll, although it is Teresa. But, I highly reccomend this movie, even to someone who doesn't even like Barbie. The songs are wonderful! I can watch this movie over, and over! And never EVER be bored of it! That is how great this movie is!

Thank you for the quick shipping and excellent product! I will remember your site for future purchases on ebay!

I purchased this movie for my three year old daughter and as silly as it may sound, within the first few minutes I was HOOKED and wanted to watch the whole thing! The story is very nice and the music is great.

its fun watching this movie... music is great too... like every barbie movie there is a message in the movie and thats what the good part i always admire...

A very cute and pretty movie for little girls. Any girl any age will love this movie and pretend to be a beautiful princess.

Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper is one of my daughters favorite movies to watch. They had to get the Barbie dolls to match, they liked it so much.

Great Product! In good condition, works well. Overall happy with both product and transaction. Would be happy to do buisness again.

Great kids musical movie. My girls love it. Bonus that it comes with the music cd too to listen to anywhere.

We have purchased several copies of this title as the grandchildren literally wear it out playing it. (Yes, you can wear out a dvd.) The packaging that includes the bonus 25 minute soundtrack cd is probably the best deal, or a "second hand" package where a kindly seller sells the interactive cat along with the movie/cdd combination.
The story is sound, the music is decent/delightful depending on your tastes, and children are entranced with the colors and music. The colors are bright, with the still early 3-d animation improved over the earlier Nutcracker and Rapunzel Barbie movies. The good guys are decent characters who treat each other with respect and villains are despicable.
It is not too scary for little ones, since it is a "realistic" fairytale, and not one with witches, magic, or monsters.
One note of interest, this is a "cat lovers" movie as the companion cats are good guys, the male "woofie" being one of those cats that acts more like a dog, while the female cat is the pampered pet. The poodle, alas for lovers of that breed, is a pampered "hit man" in the story. The horse is "owned" by the bad guys, but turns tale and works for the "good" guys. And, at the end, there are "cut" rehearsal scenes to remind the children that these are ALL actors playing a part, and this is not their real nature.

The story stands on its own and does not need Barbie to pull it off, even tho she is the character used to sell it.

I would strongly suggest this video for children who love fairy tales, musical stories, stories with active animal companions, or just anything Barbie.

excellent movio, we love to watch it together, my daugther loves it, is excellent for little girls.

I bought this as a birthday present for my niece because she requested it. I know that she really likes this movie, and she just turned 8 years old. I have never seen it, but have seen other titles much like it--I think that Barbie and the Nutcracker is pretty similar. I don't buy Barbie movies for my own daughters because I feel that they promote unrealistic and narrow ideals of body image and beauty, i.e. the "ideal" being white, blond, skinny, blue-eyed and wealthy.

That said, Barbie movies seem to try to include decent morals about being kind, cooperating, being a good friend. (Please note--I have never seen "Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper")

Got it on time, thank you so much, brand new in the box with quick delivery. Will be recommended for more purchases, will come back!!

I like the movie I just don't think it will last very long. It is going to be a present for our little girl for christmas and it just wasn't in as good of shape as I thought it was going to be. It had a lot of scratches. We have five children and with the money cruntch this year we are going to buy christmas presents off EBAY so we try to rely on the sellers' condition report, I guess this time that didn't work.

I bought two of these DVDs for my grand daughters for Christmas. I don't have to see this particular one to know that it will be awesome because I have seen many of the other Barbie movies and they are well done.

The Barbie movie series is of surprisingly good quality. Great for young children, this one made a great gift for my niece.

My 3 year old daughter absolutely loves the Barbie movies!! they are all good movies, with positive morals and always a "fairy tale" ending!!

You wouldn't expect a Barbie Princess movie to be a paragon of female empowerment, and indeed, "Princess & the Pauper" has its share of princess movie cliches. But in spite of my initial reluctance, this movie has grown on my over the many (gazillions?) of times I have seen it with my 5-year-old daughter. The movie shows that both the princess and the pauper (the poor girl) have aspects of their life that they would like to change, but that they recognize their responsibilities go beyond personal desires. And when in peril, the men, women and animals all work together to get out of trouble, so it's not just the men riding in to save the day.

The music is not half bad either, considering it's a made-for-video movie. The songs help to highlight the action, rather than being plunked into the middle of it, as sometimes can be the case. And, *spoiler alert!* -- everyone does live happily ever after (after, of course, the bad guy gets his comeuppance).

to watch this movie, little daughter snuggling all the the time.....the music..ahhhhh just a wonderful father daughter experience!

If you liked Barbie's 12 dancing princesses, nutcracker and the like, you will love this movie too. Great animation, memorable songs, and a simple lesson about life. Not scary for the little ones. Definitely recommend this highly.

My daughter really loves these movies, they are great. My daughter, son (who is 12, and wont admit he likes them) and I watch them together often. They really teach some good lessons.

This movie is really cute and my five year old loves it. The story is cute and the music is entertaining, she loves anything barbie!
