Summary: Barbie Fun for my 4 Year Old As I am reading the reviews for this DVD, which we recently purchased, I was dumbfounded at the speculation of the Lesbian subplot! First, I have no problem with alternative lifestyles; it's an individual choice. With that said, I suppose if you are "looking" for it or have something against being gay, you could find that kind of subplot in some twisted way -- but I would challenge any pre-k to tween age kid to find it. Kids who would enjoy this movie are all about friends at this time in their lives, and are learning what friendships are and just how they work. It's a great story of unconditional friendship. Period. I did raise an eyebrow for a moment at the scene where the women in the tavern were obviously miffed by Jeremy's and Ian's arrival -- but it was not clear exactly why they were miffed to my Daughter. If she was older it might have been awkward trying to explain the "one night stand" dynamic. The incidents of more mature concepts could be compared to the humor you find in Shrek or Madagascar, whereas there is an adult level of humor that kids don't pick up on, but parents do, and that makes the movie enjoyable for the parents. I think this approach is something new for the Mattel films, and perhaps they just need some time to refine their comedic passes. The music is great, and ecclectic too! I love the contrast in music from rock and roll, to contemporary to classical. The tunes are catchy and I even find myself singing along when I hear it -- which my Daughter thinks is fun. In general I'm happy with the purchase. My Daughter loves the movie and would watch it over, and over, and over again, if I let her. Isn't that what really matters? I'd love to give it 5 stars, but I think Mattell needs to polish up their attempts to camouflage adult humor. Summary: Terrific movie for all ages! I read with some dismay the negative reviews of this wonderful movie. As a conservative mom myself, I found it to be fantastic fun! The music is GREAT, the good vs evil theme is a classic, and the two goof ball guys come through in the end! (They are my favorite characters! They throw out hysterical one liners!) I absolutely would recommend it to any family as a feel good, happy ending movie with just enough 'oh, no!"s thrown in to keep everyone involved. Buy with not just confidence, but anticipation! Summary: Better for older girls After buying watching with my 5 year old the "Wonderful" movies Princess & The Pauper, Island Princess & 12 Dancing Princesses I didn't hesitate to add this movie to her collection, however it was much darker & scarier than the others. I wish they would rate them somehow on the box. This one was also more modern & someone lost the magic of the other three. Summary: latest Barbie DVD hints at lesbian behavior Parents may want to beware of this latest title in the so far excellent series of Barbie DVDs. Up to now, the DVDs have had classic stories with age appropriate dialogue and sequences. The Barbie DVDs remain delightfully innocent and playful. This latest DVD starts from the outset hinting at lesbian tendencies in the songs (which may confuse young viewers as to the intent behind the words). This theme is reinforced by two smooth tongued men seeking sex with the two heroines. They evolve in helping the two friends and end up looking like frat boys with good hearts. At the conclusion, it is left somewhat ambiguous as two whether Barbie and her best friend are indeed straight. There are some nice special effects, like the redone Stargate Atlantis "castle" rising from the water. Rainmaker Effects took the same dazzling sequence and cartooned it up and made it girly, to represent the Diamond Castle, instead of the city of Atlantis, from the hit SciFi TV show. While not an open declaration of lesbian celebration, this latest Barbie DVD is quite a departure from the sweet and innocent titles so far to date. The themes are too mature for young girls. I apologize to anyone who may be offended, as I certainly to not criticize alternative lifestyle choices. I feel that young girls may not have the fully developed intellect to overcome suggestion through the DVD content. Summary: Barbie and the Diamond Castle dvd My daughter is 4 and loves this movie, would recommend for any child that loves barbie! |
