Barbie and the Three Musketeers is a 2009 Direct to Video movie and part of the Barbie film franchise, releasing in between Barbie Presents Thumbelina and Barbie in a Mermaid Tale. As the title suggests, it's The Three Musketeers, done with Barbie in the main part.In this version, Barbie (voice of Kelly Sheridan) plays Corinne, daughter of D'Artagnan and Constance. Corinne wants to become a Musketeer, like her father, but she's a woman. Undaunted, she sets off for Paris, where her letter of recommendation is instantly stolen and she is forced to work as a maid in the castle. She gets her chance, however, when she's forced to reveal her training after an attempt on the Prince's life goes awry. Along with fellow maids Aramina, Renée and Viveca, Corinne works to counter the plot of an evil chancellor (voice of Tim Curry) who wishes to usurp the throne. | |

| Barbie and the Three Musketeers / int_149f7447 | comment |
Rescue Romance: Corinne and Prince Louis first meet properly when she rescues him from a runaway hot-air balloon, and their conversation in the aftermath shows some clear hints of romantic chemistry between them. Subverted at the end, when it's implied that they're going to stay Just Friends. | |

Tempting Fate: When one of the ropes tethering his balloon snaps, Louis decides that this is a good time to bail out. Cue the other two ropes snapping, which knocks him over the side and leaves him dangling upside-down from the ladder while the balloon floats away. | |

Failed a Spot Check: Louis is so excited over the success of his miniature hot-air balloon that he doesn't realize Corinne is there until he bumps into her. Likewise, despite Louis loudly enthusing over said balloon, Corinne doesn't realize he's heading her way until the collision. | |

Ironic Echo: When Corinne first comes to Paris, one of the musketeers tells her to "leave the musketeering to the big boys." When she finds him among the guards who've been captured and tied up by Philippe's assassins, Corinne quips that "the big boys" seem to need some help. Philippe dismisses Corinne's attempt to speak to Treville by claiming that a girl could never possess the proper skills to be a musketeer. After she out-fences him at the climax, Corinne takes the opportunity to throw those words back in his face. | |

Mythology Gag: Corinne's father is D'Artagnan, the protagonist of the original book by Dumas. Corinne meets her three friends by angrying them after bumping into each while she was in a hurry. In the original book, this is also how D'Artagnan meets Athos, Porthos and Aramis in order. | |

Extremely Short Timespan: A week passes between Corinne's arrival in Paris and the climactic Masquerade Ball, during which two attempts are made on Louis's life and the girls undergo a training regimen that vastly improves their skills. And after this, they still have time to uncover Philippe's plot, get fired for trying to expose it, and make the disguises and weapons they use at the ball. | |

Training Montage: The girls go through one of these in the old musketeer training grounds after Helene demonstrates that their skills are still very lacking. Then it's subverted when it's revealed that the montage was a single training session, which ends with the girls exhausted and sore and Helene declaring that they'll do it all again tomorrow. | |

Bad Boss | |
| Barbie and the Three Musketeers / int_3cb1d38d | comment |
Madame Bosse is understandably upset when three of her employees come to work late and noticeably disheveled. However, she then proves she's a Bad Boss by threatening to fire them without waiting to hear if they have a reasonable excuse, only letting them stay because she needs every worker available to prepare for the Prince's birthday masquerade. | |

Make It Look Like an Accident: The first two attempts on Louis's life are set up along these lines. The first invokes Falling Chandelier of Doom, while the second arranges a Die or Fly scenario while Louis is testing his newly-invented hot-air balloon. Subverted with the third attempt, as Philippe drops the earlier subtlety and tries to just stab Louis in the middle of a crowded ballroom. | |

Improvised Weapon: The girls use their cleaning supplies (a broom, a duster, and a rag) to protect themselves from flying debris when a chandelier falls. Later, when the girls are surrounded by Philippe's men, Viveca fends them off by spraying them with liberal amounts of perfume while the girls get their ballgowns ready for fighting. Helene also takes down two of Philippe's men with a broom. | |

Evil Uncle | |
| Barbie and the Three Musketeers / int_688afa6a | comment |
Evil Uncle: Played with. Philippe, the Big Bad, is really Louis's cousin, but he's old enough that their dynamic is more like this. Phillipe has been serving as Louis's regent until he's old enough to become King, but secretly wants to keep ruling the kingdom and is trying to assassinate Louis so the throne will go to the next person in line — namely, himself. | |

Jerkass Has a Point | |
| Barbie and the Three Musketeers / int_6b05b601 | comment |
Jerkass Has a Point: Treville rejecting Corinne as a musketeer can come across as more misogyny, thanks to how her last few attempts to explain her dream to people have gone. However, he does make a valid point when he says that most people who become musketeers have years of experience, which Corinne lacks, and have performed some sort of heroic deed that proves they're qualified for the job, which she hasn't. Madame Bosse is understandably upset when three of her employees come to work late and noticeably disheveled. However, she then proves she's a Bad Boss by threatening to fire them without waiting to hear if they have a reasonable excuse, only letting them stay because she needs every worker available to prepare for the Prince's birthday masquerade. Though their collective reaction might be considered out of proportion, Viveca, Renee and Aramina do have a good reason for being upset with Corinne. She bumped into them while chasing her cat and accidentally damaged the items they had with them. Renee especially had a good reason since Corinne got her violin bow stuck on the fountain. | |

Establishing Character Moment: Corinne makes her introduction while dueling with a scarecrow and proudly declaring herself a musketeer. Viveca is making a cape for herself, establishing her as The Fashionista. Aramina is dancing, smelling roses, and reciting poetry. She also manages to dodge both the cat and dog before finally being knocked over by Corinne, showing that she's a bit of a dreamer but also the most graceful and agile of the girls. Renee is playing the violin. After Corinne knocks her over, she makes a straightforward declaration of vengeance, unlike the other girls, establishing her as the most down-to-earth member of the group. Louis appears while enthusing over a miniature hot-air balloon he made, and is so busy watching it that he walks right into Corinne. | |

Never Mess with Granny: Helene, the elderly, hunched-over servant, is also a highly skilled and capable fighter. Despite being well past her prime, she easily defeats Corinne and her friends while assessing their skills. Some of Philippe's mercenaries learn this lesson the hard way when they ignore the old servant woman sweeping the floors, only for her to knock them down with her broom so quickly they don't realize what hit them. | |

Pottery Barn Poor: Even though they're lowly castle chambermaids, the girls share a spacious apartment with luxurious canopy beds. Later, they show up at the masquerade ball, an event reserved for royalty and nobility, with the best dresses in the room, raising the question of how they could afford the expensive materials normally, much less after losing their jobs. | |

Straw Misogynist | |
| Barbie and the Three Musketeers / int_abc28948 | comment |
Straw Misogynist: The townsfolk mock Corrine for wanting to be a musketeer since she's a woman. Downplayed with Philippe. Though he uses the rhetoric that girls are inherently unfit to be interfering in musketeer business to discredit them, when push comes to shove he treats Corinne and her allies as a serious threat to his plans and has no problem with fighting them. | |

| Barbie and the Three Musketeers / int_acecb17d | comment |
Aramina is dancing, smelling roses, and reciting poetry. She also manages to dodge both the cat and dog before finally being knocked over by Corinne, showing that she's a bit of a dreamer but also the most graceful and agile of the girls. | |

Toothbrush Floor Scrubbing | |
| Barbie and the Three Musketeers / int_bc6be13a | comment |
Toothbrush Floor Scrubbing: This is how Viveca, Aramina, and Renee punish Corinne for bumping into them, making them late for work and getting them yelled at for being dirty and disheveled when they finally arrive. Corinne is given a very small brush and has to scrub the entire floor of the castle's massive ballroom with it. | |

Kicking Ass in All Her Finery | |
| Barbie and the Three Musketeers / int_c027dd64 | comment |
Kicking Ass in All Her Finery: Downplayed and justified. The girls' dresses have to pass muster at a royal ball, but they're designed with fighting in mind. As such, the long skirts detach to reveal shorter skirts that won't get in the way underneath, their necklaces can be used as slingshots with jewels for ammunition, the fans they carry are capable of deflecting swords, and their crowns double as masks to hide their identities. | |

Die or Fly: Both defied and invoked. Louis plans to make multiple tests with his full-size hot-air balloon firmly tethered to the ground before making a real flight. However, when Bertram sabotages the ropes holding it down, Louis's first test turns into a full-on test flight, with him as an unwilling passenger. Fortunately, thanks to Corinne he's able to make a safe landing. | |

What the Hell, Hero?: Louis expresses disbelief at the idea of a girl being a musketeer even though Corinne, a girl, has just saved his life and they're floating through the sky in a hot-air balloon he built despite being told it was impossible. Corinne is quick to call out his hypocrisy before storming off in a huff. | |

Writers Cannot Do Math | |
| Barbie and the Three Musketeers / int_da1c8191 | comment |
Writers Cannot Do Math: D'Artagnan lived his original adventures under the reign of Louis XIII; the real man was born between 1611 and 1615. Knowing that the movie takes place in the later years of the Regency, in the mid-1720's, and assuming that Corinne herself is around 20, that would mean that D'Artagnan fathered her at about 90. Granted, that is not impossible, but the ongoing tenure of Captain de Tréville, who was already middle-aged in the 1630's... | |

Reasonable Authority Figure | |
| Barbie and the Three Musketeers / int_dca70c44 | comment |
Reasonable Authority Figure: Treville, captain of the musketeers, proves to be one. He hears Corinne out instead of laughing her off like his men, and his refusal to accept her as a musketeer is based off of the valid concern that she lacks the necessary experience. Once she and her friends gain that experience by saving the Prince's life (and rescuing him and his men in the process), he doesn't appear to make any objections to their promotion. | |

Historical Villain Upgrade | |
| Barbie and the Three Musketeers / int_e16217f8 | comment |
Historical Villain Upgrade: Philippe of Orléans, Regent of France from 1715 to 1725, was a polarizing figure, especially for his scandalous private life, but most sources agree that he was utterly devoted to the realm and to his first cousin twice removed Louis XV. At least, there is no evidence or hint that he ever meant to claim the throne for himself. | |
