#i watched it less than 24 hrs ago and barely remember a thing.

[ackee]

I havent seen the barbie movie yet as ive been deciding if i should or not. May i ask what you thought was if thats fine? Lol i just wanna know what id be getting to if i did no hate👌🏽

i will start with the positives. the set design and styling/outfits were top notch! ken was very funny sometimes!

but for the negatives. i will be brief. (1/6463823574958)

it's.. a slog to get through honestly. i thought that i was being a hater about how much i wanted it to be over but i was watching it with my best friend, and SHE was the one who asked how much time was left with it 😭 we both were mad only an hour had passed (felt like two), AND there was an entire 48 mins left.

the feminism in it is so.. surface level. like i dont expect anything big from a Brand (because real feminism aint gon tell you to buy mattel products at the end of the day LOL), but it is so 2013 it hurts. again, maybe if this movie dropped an entire decade ago it'd be groundbreaking, but in 2023? i have heard 16 yr olds on tiktok be more eloquent than this. the film tries to say SO many things and ultimately says nothing at all.

do you see how this 'ending explained' video is only 6 minutes long?

Yeah.

they also tried to like, satirize "overly woke" people and had a character call barbie a fascist and i just was so tired. i was already tired but that line just made me tireder.

a movie making conservatives mad doesn't always translate into a good movie. it's a film for millennials to make gifs about to use in twitter arguments. an ad to buy more barbie products. a well made mid mess.

tldr: SAVE YOUR MONEY & WATCH 'BARBIE: LIFE IN THE DREAMHOUSE' FR. ITS FUNNIER.
