Editorial Reviews:

Barbieā„¢ in A Christmas Carol is a heart-warming adaptation of the classic Dickens story filled with cherished Christmas carols, fabulous fashions and lots of laughs! The tale stars Barbieā„¢ as Eden Starlingā„¢ the glamorous singing diva of a theatre in Victorian London. Along with her snooty cat, Chuzzlewit, Eden selfishly plans to make all the theatre performers stay and rehearse on Christmas Day! Not even Edenā€™s costume designer and childhood friend, Catherine can talk Eden out of her self-centered tantrum.

Itā€™s up to three very unusual Christmas Spirits to take Eden on a fantastical holiday journey that will open her heart to the spirit of the season and the joy of giving. Barbieā„¢ in A Christmas Carol is a family favorite to enjoy every holiday season!

Summary: A lesson in friendship and kindness
Comment: I never thought I would enjoy a Barbie movie, but this one is a great lesson in caring without being too annoying for adults. My daughter loves it. We use what's going on in the story to help teach and reinforce the lessons of the movie.

Comment: My little ones love this movie. It was an early Christmas present and they watch it a lot before Christmas. Seriously, who gives Christmas movies as present on Christmas Day!!!???

Comment: I love this movie. It was colorful, had a wonderful message (as always), and just plain cute for the Holidays.

Summary: Barbie is surprisingly unkind to her sister.
Comment: After reading the many positive reviews for this movie, my wife and I thought it would be a better choice for my daughter than Diamond Castle. We were wrong. We were very shocked by the uncharacteristically spoiled and haughty attitude that Barbie showed to her sister Kelly at the very beginning. It was vastly different than any of the other Barbie videos we have seen and not at all something we would want our daughter to emulate. The rest of the story wasn't particularly good--there were a few good moments, but it was by far the worst of any of the other Barbie movies we have seen. Don't waste your money on this movie.

Summary: Very Enjoyable!
Comment: My 5-year-old granddaughter and I found this movie to be very entertaining--excellent script and animation. She was totally engrossed in the storyline the entire time. Barbie comes off as mature and not at all self-centered, which did surprise me. I thought the movie would be a "fluff" piece, but it is actually a welll-written script with a good message.
