Overrated

just watch it!

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

this is the best movie in the world. Penelope was my favorite character by far, she's so sweet and nice and kind and cool and purple and pretty and dragon-y. wow and that bunny was so funny. i had such a good time watching this movie with my friend it was really really good. it was such nice quality for such an old movie. and oh my god that plot twist at the end!!!!!! 😲 i'm dead, was not expecting that AT ALL. 10/10 best movie ever made.

OK I have recorded this on VHS and I have to say I quite enjoyed it.The story is about Rapunzel who is locked away in an enchanted tower guarded by an evil queen who doesn't want her to get out. Of course she spots a secret passage in her room (thanks to a magic painting brush) and while she is there she meets a handsome prince and you can probably guess the rest for yourselves.I liked the story but the beginning of the movie was so dull and depressing and that ending is bloody awful as it isn't quite as what I expected.If you have heard there is a movie called Tangled from Disney and i'd say it will be better than this one. My advice is to watch something else other than this one.5/10

I am in my 30s and am a father of 3 little girls so I have to watch movies like this. I was surprised that this movie was quite good, and the best of the Barbie movies (most of which are likewise good!). This is no Care Bears or My Little Ponies movie. I can actually watch this movie with my kids and not be bored or repulsed. It has an interesting plot, good character development, and good morals, and even a little exciting.This is not Pixar stuff, but for a straight-to-video release I am pleased that they took some pride in their work and made a good product with what little budget they probably had.

I have loved the story of Rapunzel since I was a child and I have to say I find this Barbie version very discouraging. It's not the story at all and that's just wrong. I mean I understand that little girls love stories about princesses an that Barbie is trying to provide that, but I think it's more important that these little girls learn the real stories which as such a beautiful part of history. I know it's cute, but so is the real story - so my question is why? Why ruin such a wonderful story by adding a magic paintbrush and a talking purple dragon? What was so wrong with the original story that they felt like changing it? - it just doesn't make any sense
