I am not much for musicals, but the songs in this movie really fit in. Sure, it's the standard 'formula' movie, but it's very satisfying and quite touching in the end (I even cried! A 40 year old woman crying watching a BARBIE movie! I can't believe I am even admitting that!). It reminds me a little of the movie "Ever After" with Drew Barrymore. The reason I love this movie so much is that it's the ultimate love story (and not just love of a "boy & girl", but the love of family, too). Boy, was I wrong! They are so good, we've bought almost all of them now. I expected them to be silly and not to have much depth (like my son's Land Before Time movies). She picked Barbie & The 12 Dancing Princesses (which is also a favorite). I didn't even know that these movies existed until I let my 2 year old daughter pick out a movie at the video store. I find it hard to believe that these Barbie movies don't get more exposure or recognition, because I think the are all so amazing.
