Never Thought I'd Have This In My House!

by ladyhawk617 , Jan 09 '02
Pros: Kids love it (even boys shhhh)and it fuels the imagination
Cons: Well, it's Barbie and the music is downplayed
You know they say that you will get paid back for everything you did while you were young through your children? Enter = "Barbie in the Nutcracker"

I never got into Barbie. My daughter is a Barbie FREAK!! and this video only fuels her...

Great for girls. Painful for Tchaikowsky fans.

by wivabef , Oct 15 '01
Pros: The Lady in Pink kinda, sorta dances to Tchaikowsky.
Cons: 78 minute commercial for the infamous Pink Aisle at Toys R Us
I keep telling myself, “Self, keep this in perspective.”

For example, was “Barbie in the Nutcracker” produced to win awards? No. Okay, maybe cross-promotion awards – but nothing like an Oscar. Heck, it wasn’t even designed to go to the movie...

"Mommy I don't want to watch it anymore"

by dmuse , Nov 30 '01
Pros: It's the only movie Barbie's got!
Cons: This isn't the traditional Nutcracker story.
This is what my 5 year old Barbie, ballet fan said over and over again. Smart cookie. I don't blame her. There was really nothing spectacular about this movie, save for the cool scene between Barbie and her sister Kelly in the beginning at the dance...

NOW I Get It!

by mcommini , Nov 28 '01
Pros: Fun portrayal of The Nutcracker story for kids. Finally, it makes sense!
Cons: Whiny bat character gets annoying, but not too bad.
When I was a child, my mother took me to see "The Nutcracker" when the local professional ballet company performed it. I didn't get it. I knew it was all about some girl and the nutcracker and a lot of fanciful characters from another world, but...

A new twist on the Nutcracker

by Jaydee1993 , Nov 06 '01
Pros: This is really cute, girls will love this
Cons: my 3yr old son hates it
I'm in the local toy store with my mother, who thinks it's her right to spoil my kids . We are headed for check-out and I'm thinking, ok, we are getting out of here with only a mild spoiling, when my mother spots the movie Barbie in the Nutcracker. I...

"Mom, it's time for our daily viewing of 'Barbie Nutcracker'!"

by sjbraun , Nov 16 '01
Pros: great music, nice "good wins over evil" story, BARBIE!!
Cons: not as neat (to me!) as the original Nutcracker story, Barbie stereotypes
I was NOT going to buy this video. Although my 2- and 4-year-old daughters LOVE Barbie, I am still fighting the whole tiny waist, perfect hair thing. I was not going to perpetuate it by buying this commercialized version of the ballet that I loved!...

Now the kids want ballet lessons.

by beth01 , Oct 15 '01
Pros: It's a very cute story for young girls with Barbie saving the day.
Cons: It's boring and has a weak story line that doesn't hold older kids.
Barbie and the Nutcracker were very cute characters. During the course of the movie Barbie receives a nutcracker as a Christmas present from her jet setting aunt. During the night when the magic comes to life she tries to defend the nutcracker from an...

Barbie in the Nutcracker.

by reiyn , Jan 30 '02
Pros: My daughter was in love with this movie for over a month.
Cons: See above. lol
Well personally I thought this movie was not that bad. After a couple years of "I wanna watch Barney!" over and over again, I was pleased when my daughter wanted to watch this movie. It may not be the traditional Nutcracker story, but to be honest I was...
