Barbie as Rapunzel will thrill children aged 3 to 8, following the success of Barbie in the Nutcracker. Barbie may have started life as a doll in the 1950s, but these days she's also making her name as a computer-animated film star. In a modern twist on the classic fairy tale, Barbie stars as Rapunzel--a courageous and imaginative princess who is locked away in a tower by the evil witch Gothel. With help from her friends (Penelope the cute purple dragon and Hobie the rabbit) and through the power of her own creative energies, she paints her way out of the tower to find freedom, truth, and love.
Anjelica Huston is memorable as the vocal talent behind the unbalanced and scary Gothel, and excellent sound effects and colors greatly enhance the film. Hugo the mighty dragon, Otto the nasty ferret, and the sword fight between the feuding kings will hold the attention of those brothers of Barbie fans who are less than enthusiastic about watching this 80-minute film, but essentially this is a little girls' film and the outrageously pink castle, the magical fashion show before the masked ball, and the fairy-tale wedding will make it a firm favorite for that audience. --Tracey Hogan

Rating:  - Entertaining lesson in forgiveness
My 6 year old daughter really likes this movie, a CGI animated film. At first I didn't pay much attention to it, but my husband and I just finished watching it with her and I realize now what a well-made and entertaining movie it is.
A story-within-a-story, with Barbie narrating to her little sister, Kelly, about a young, honest girl named Rapunzel. Rapunzel is essentially a prisoner to Gogol, who has "cared" for her since she was a baby. However, one day, fate has a hand in allowing ... Read More
Rating: - Very entertaining for young and old
My three- and four-year-old granddaughers loved this video and so did I! The animation is impressive and the music is wonderful. Even after watching it multiple times, I never tire of it and the girls are still asking me to play it again.
Rating:  - Doesn't Hold Her Attention
I think this is an ok dvd. It just does not hold my 3 year olds attention. It may be for 4 year olds and up. It is put away in my house for 6 months and then I'll see if she likes it any better. She always gets excited to watch it and then ends up ignoring the movie.
Rating: - Barbie As Rapunzel
I purchased this video for my granddaughters. They have enjoyed it and
find the animation easy to watch. The fairytale is enchanting to young
people.
Rating: - Serendipity
When you hear, "Barbie as Rapunzel", I know what you're thinking: "It's a Barbie movie! It CAN'T be good! It just going to be some big marketing scam!" Yes, this truly has all the earmarks of an hour-long advertisement. But guess what?
It's not only a coherent, functioning movie--it's actually VERY entertaining.
I am not a big Barbie fan, but my family rented this movie at my little sister's behest. I'm interested in animation, so I decided to at least see what the first ... Read More
