Ballerina Reacts to Barbie of Swan Lake — Is It Actually Good? 🩰✨
Welcome to Swan Lake Lifestyle! In today’s video, I’m reacting to Barbie of Swan Lake (2003), the nostalgic Mattel animated film that introduced many of us to classical ballet. As a professional ballerina, I’ll be breaking down the film scene by scene, comparing it to the original Swan Lake ballet by Tchaikovsky and exploring how Barbie adapted this iconic story for young audiences.

Does the dancing hold up? How accurate is the ballet technique? And does Barbie of Swan Lake honor the spirit of the classic ballet? Let’s find out together in this cozy, thoughtful ballet reaction video.
