Review of Barbie (2023) by Vandiemansoul — 23 Jul 2023

Amazing movie experience. Wonderful cast, bold and classy script. It will annoy anyone who doesn't agree with the premise that basically humans should be treated better, and humans need to stop punching down in order to lift themselves up.

Ryan Gosling's turn as stereotypical Ken is a delight but Allen... Allen was a wonderful surprise! Greta's script walks the line of not annoying Mattel (IP) too much and not overplaying the point that, yes, we know Barbie dolls are very problematic.

There was cheering in our screening. Everyone seemed to leave on a high. Overall it is one of the best movies I've seen in a long time.
