YMMV / Barbie: Princess Charm School

• Alternative Character Interpretation: Delancey's reasons for helping Blair prove she was Princess Sophia are never fully explained, leaving the audience to speculate. Is it really because it was the right thing to do, as Delancey said? Is it because, like Fergis in The Pearl Princess, Delancey never really wanted the throne and was only being pressured into taking it by her mother? It is because Delancey felt some lingering fondness for the cousin she never met and seized on the chance to potentially find her? Or did she just want to avoid public humiliation if the crown didn't light up for her, revealing she wasn't the true heir to the throne?
• Fountain of Memes: Portia is the most quoted character in the film, since she has a lot of memorable lines that demonstrate her odd, ditzy behavior.
• Jerkass Woobie: Delancy, when you realize she's not just an Alpha Bitch — she's been suffering for years from the stress Dame Devin places on her to be a proper princess and to not screw up, and generally seems to be very subservient to her mother. It gets even worse when Delancy begins to consider the evidence that her mom is planning something, and finally culminates in Delancy rightfully crowning Blair as the true princess... which only results in Dame Devin calling Delancy a "useless child" before spilling the beans on her real plan, resulting in her arrest.
• Memetic Mutation: Portia's flatly delivered but completely serious line "How dare she. I wanted that cake".
• Unnecessary Makeover: The amazed look Blair gives to the Charm School uniform◊ that her waitress attire◊ was just transformed into is rather odd, mainly because both outfits are nearly identical. While some elements of the uniform are more detailed (the skirt gains a plaid pattern and the socks go from ankle to knee length), it otherwise looks like Blair just took off her apron and put a vest and tie over the clothes she was already wearing. This is also jarring from a narrative perspective, as the fact that she dressed like a princess even before attending the school contradicts her being a Fish out of Water due to her impoverished upbringing and Extreme Doormat personality.
