Okay, if your looking for Dickens here you won't get it... but if your open-minded and come out it from the right point of view you will at least be amused, if you don't like it.
The movie is obviously made for children. The characters Analiese and Erika and their respective love matches don't even share a kiss on screen. I found it obvious who they were going to end up with at the end of the movie... perhaps they hadn't meant it to be ambiguous, but maybe a bit more subtlety? The animation is very good! Sure, you won't mistake it for reality, but it is very surprising for a Barbie movie. Over all, I'd definitely recommend this- not to my friends, who are too old for this movie- but for the girl I babysit for.
