I recommend this movie for younger audience. The movie contains some great scenes (like the last ones) and teaches friendship, love and the need to follow your heart (classic). The lyrics of the songs especially the last one are very inspiring. This story becomes a part of nostalgic memories especially when seen at a young age. The supporting did justice to the story and helped made it unforgettable. The interplay of pink and blue was a great idea considering the fact that these colours are considered related. This is a classic movie from Matel and one of the best movies in the Barbie series. The only possible shortcoming of this story is that it is unrealistic (do cats and horses even get married?) but it is okay considering its target audience.

The love progressed well and the pairs were perfect. Based on the animated movie of the same name, Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper is a solid platformer with. 'Written in your heart' was one of the very good songs in this movie.

The songs enhanced the effect of the story. The story unfolds well and is has a complex story structure compared to most fairy tales. Lately, Barbie movies have lost the romantic element. I liked this movie very much and it ranks as one of my favourite Barbie movies along with Swan Lake, Island Princess and Nutcracker. In the end, everyone gets married to their true love including the cats and the horse (Now, isn't this what you call happy ending?). In the end, as expected from Barbie, everything is solved and true love conquers all. Anneliese and Erika's cats fall in love with each other (quite the classic barbie story). Julian asks Erika to act as the princess while he can find her.Įrika, while acting as a princess falls in love with the prince of the enarby kingdom whom Anneliese is supposed to marry. However, Preminger, the royal advisor abducts her to become the king and marry her mother.

She promises to call her to the palace to sing. It was released on September 28, 2004, and it made its TV premiere on Nickelodeon on. She sings very well and looks exactly like the princess. Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper is the fourth Barbie movie. While masquerading as a peasant and looking around town, she meets a peasant, Erika who works for a gown maker.

The story is much like the original book- Anneliese, a princess burdened by royal duties if forced to marry the prince of a nearby kingdom because all the gold in the kingdom has been exhausted. This one is a retelling of a classic novel Prince and the pauper by Mark Twain. While many of these movies were good, the quality has been deciling lately. To promote imagination and inspire young girls to dream, mattel made several movies of barbie based on pre-existing popular fairy tales. Barbie dolls are very popular among young girls.
