Review of Barbie (2023) by Marcosreis — 21 Jul 2023

This is a Marterpiece. A have the feeling that the people who are bashing it are afraid or dislikeful of the representations it contains. Wheter you like them or not, there is no denying that this is a deep and thoughtful movie. I give it a ten for being, as much as very fun and upbeating, so intentional and dutiful, competent and coherent on conveying a message of self-acceptance and self-knowledge/discovery for both women and men alike. It's a meaningful movie, even if you don't agree with some of the representations it has. It shouldn't be trashed for political or worldview divergences. This movie is, at it's most deep, human.

I don't think it should be carelessly shown to very young children though, because the subject of the plot it very, very dense. It's a bit hard to talk about death with too young children, so maybe PG-13 is in fact a good rating, but it's a mission-impossible to not take a 6yo to watch the latest and most Candy-colored Barbie movie ever!

I will definitely hold this one to my best regards, for it's such a meaningful and delightful movie. The crowd clapped all along and the vibe in the movies was awesome, with the real world barbies of all ages and shapes all colored in pink.
