You won't be disappointed!

Overrated and overhyped

i must have seen a different film!!

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

I wanted to like A Fairy Secret, and tried to. But I just couldn't. And this is coming from somebody who actually likes the Barbie movies(especially Nutcracker, Diamond Castle, Island Princess and Prince and the Pauper). But although I haven't yet seen Fashion Fairytale, despite hearing a lot of negative press about that one, I can't imagine until I see it that it will be worse than this. The only redeeming quality for me of A Fairy Secret was the catchy soundtrack, and even that is nowhere near as good as those for Nutcracker, Rapunzel and Swan Lake. I disliked the animation here, entries like Nutcracker, Swan Lake and Diamond Castle have beautiful animation that is full of colour and fluidity, but here the colours are lifeless, the backgrounds blocky and the character designs at their most plastic. The writing focuses far too much on fashion(seemingly fashion is like the most important thing in the world) and behavioural snobbery, and the story instead of being charming with good messages is formulaic and rushed with values of stealing boyfriends and vanity. The characters are no longer cute, but now act like childish brats, especially Ken. Barbie in another of her as...roles is no longer resourceful and kind but now a stereotypical teenager, the anti-thesis of her persona in the first place, in other words she's at her least likable. The voice work is stilted, nobody sounds natural as their characters, granted I wasn't expecting any big names to pop up and practically embody their roles like in Nutcracker, Rapunzel, Swan Lake and Three Musketeers but at least the voice actors could've sounded as though they were bringing some kind of life to the proceedings. Overall, a huge disappointment, I'm expecting little from Fashion Fairytale but I just pray that it isn't worse than this. 2/10 Bethany Cox

Wow! Some of the reviews on this flick are freakin' HARSH-CITY! Here's a News Flash to some reviewers: THIS MOVIE WAS NOT MADE FOR YOU!!I've got two daughters, ages 6 and 9. They both enjoyed it, particularly my 6 year old who was jumping up off the couch because she was totally getting into the movie. The thing I noticed the most was how much they were smiling and giggling throughout the entire film. (Isn't that what these films are all about?I thought the voice acting was fine, and the computer animation was on par with all the other BARBIE movies we have in our collection.I asked them what their score would be for this, and they both said "It was AWESOME!" So, I give it TEN STARS for its intended audience.The bottom line is that NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THIS MOVIE CONSIDERING THE TARGET AUDIENCE, AND BOTH OF MY DAUGHTERS GREATLY ENJOYED THIS FILM!And that's what really matters the most.

These movies are getting worse and worse. Bring back the old style and old Barbie. They are also not entirely appropriate for a 3-5 year old. Sad. They have attempted to modernize Barbie and taken away her sweetness and innocence and made her into an annoying teenager with a cell phone. She doesn't even look like Barbie anymore. The fantasy is gone. Barbie is supposed to be hip and modern- it is like the movie producers are ignoring the 3-5 year old genre and targeting 8-10 year olds. But the main audience is 3-5. What 10 year old wants to watch this? That being said my 4 year old enjoyed it, but I am not sure I did and I am not sure I like the new influence. I think we will stick with old Barbie movies on reruns. This pales in comparison to Three Musketeers or Princess and the Pauper. Get those instead.

Why did I watch this movie? Oh yes I was under the impression that it MIGHT be good. It was really bad! SPOILERS after this point: This movie is about Barbie, duh. Some, wait for it, FAIRY literally STEALS her boyfriend, Ken of course. And Barbie has to rescue him.Throughout this ENTIRE movie was BRAINWASHING PROPAGANDA for girls to be stereotypical girls. NOT ONE FEMALE IN THIS ENTIRE MOVIE WEARS PANTS! Wow these days women wear pants more often than skirts, and dresses. The closest one girl got to wearing pants was the "stuck up" girl naturally! And they were skin tight leggings UNDER A SKIRT! WOW! You may say "These are the girly girls." So jeans are not girly? These days women wear dresses/skirts ONLY for special occasions. When one is seen with one on they are asked why they are all dressed up.Since this movie takes place in the present (one fairy saying "too many apps") they must reflect the present style. The movie was so sexist! All women do is figure out what outfit to wear and steal each other's boyfriends? None of these women have REAL jobs they have all la la land jobs; actor, stylist, fitting room attendant. REALLY? Wow talk about telling women to stay barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen! NONE of these women do jobs that require actual intelligence! Just repeating lines, and the fairy stylists USE THEIR MAGIC to make outfits! They don't even have a bachelor in arts or something! Also the whole "forgiveness sets you free" thing hmm, well the stuck up girl did not really do anything wrong to be forgiven. It was a MISUNDERSTANDING! MORE BRAINWASHING to teach girls at an early age to "forgive" TRANSLATION: LET PEOPLE WALK ALL OVER YOU, BE A GOOD LITTLE SLAVE TO MEN, LET MEN CHEAT ON YOU, ETC." WOW! Should women "forgive" a man who assaulted them. NO of course not. THAT is THEIR responsibility not to pointlessly harm a woman! I am aware I did not put a question mark. That is because that is not even a QUESTION! The answer is CLEARLY NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!!!!!!!! Oh yes and the whole thing that one woman did in a fairy store. She left her WHOLE LIFE behind for her HUSBAND! And now can NEVER leave the fairy world! So she can't ever be a part of her life BEFORE this guy. No, it's all about him! HOW SEXIST!!!! What about a compromise? They live in fairy land for a while and a while in the real world! WOW! HORRIBLE "LESSONS" for little girls! "Give up your life for men and be their slave." NO DON'T DO THAT! Barbie shows her true colors here! And they are sexist! DO NOT SHOW THIS "MOVIE" TO YOUR LITTLE GIRL(S); THEY WILL BE SCARRED FOR LIFE!
