You know what, I had my doubts about the Barbie movie and feminism but it was a lot more explicit than I thought it'd be. A little cartoonish and on the nose sometimes but also it's in the middle of a movie about a kids toy so it balanced it's sometimes heavy handedness with a BUNCH of funny as shit jokes.

Ken is my son and I love him, and I was delighted by his story arc and Goslings performance. Fantastic casting choices all around! Also starting it like 2001 A Space Odyssey was a fuckin brilliant choice, half pisstake half genuis way to introduce your world and the occasional narrator the movie has.

#winters ramblings #id highly recommend seeing it- like is it THE most well put together movie with feminist themes #yes the movie itself is great but the feminism was Babys First Feminism but i think thats fine and it does what it needs to #in the narrative. will Ferrell was DELIGHTFUL in the movie as well and the sets were amazing!!#shoutout to having kate McKinnon play weird barbie but not have her do that fuckin voice thing shes always doing in movies #idk if its directing choices or not but i like her a lot without the Voice she does she was a perfect cast for weird barbie #seriously though i REALLY liked ken. barbie had an interesting story but i found ken a bit more relatable which is interesting #because the LAST thing id do is simp after someone but maybe if margot robbie was around id make an exception too lmao #but i like him discovering power and then finding out power is kind of exhausting to have and its work he didnt like #PLUS he gets told go find himself AS himself EITHOUT barbie who is not in love with him anyway??#very cool ken SHOULD have a strong sense of self before he gets with barbie!!
