I loved this movie and I thought it was going to be just a comedy! I didn't think I was going to be immersed as much as I was with its Magic and CRY my face off ( and makeup) LOL! I felt so many things. I felt like this was really well done. It was smart. And really didn't need a commentary. The movie was a commentary. But, like me I do go on a lil' tangent at the end. Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling where amazing in this. Literally made for these roles. The whole production, set deck, costumes, hair and makeup literally everyone who worked on this did an incredible job making it come to life! Weird Barbie and Alan where such great additions to the movie. 

Glad I watched this!

Thanks for being here! Love ya!

Greta Gerwig really did a great job with this... Didn't think I would like it but walked away admitting I was entertained. The best part? Saw it in the theatre w/my wife opening weekend and 90% of audience was female and 80% of them were dressed up in a variety of pink costumes MANY of which were very revealing! 😜😜😜

I was pleasantly surprised with this one, based on the backlash from it I was kinda expecting a barbi flavored lecture and while I could see what they meant in parts but at the same time, thought, yall take yourselves too seriously. I didn't expect to like it as much as I did. And certainly more complex than I imagined. You need to watch the 2001 space oddysy to appreciate the beginning. It makes it a lot funnier. Not even the whole thing. Maybe the first 30 min or so would be enough.

No challenge on the question: it comes from long, long ago... in the year two thouuuusaaaand Also you have the best reaction room... for me to poop on!

Fun and meaningful movie. I need to ask my daughter (and son) if they've seen this movie. "Barbie has a great day every day. Ken only has a great day if Barbie looks at him." "Why didn't Barbie tell me about patriarchy?" “Are you guys shining?” For anyone who wants to know what the daughter Sasha meant by the term “shining” to describe an interaction between her mother and Barbie, see the movie The Shining (1980). Interesting that Hellen Mirren is the narrator. I now realize that Hellen Mirren has done some narration before, and reads for audio books.

I know I don't have to say this again from our previous conversation, but thank you again for covering this for us. I really appreciate it, and am so happy you enjoyed it. P.S. - Thanks for not being perfect.

Now THAT was an interesting experience! I went into this movie blind, and it was not what I expected at all. Barbie having an existential crisis? If there's anyone who should know who she is, it's Barbie! She always looks amazing, she has everything she wants, every day is wonderful, she can be anyone she wants to be, and do anything she can imagine. She's perfect! And that's the problem. And Ken! He's Barbie's good looking guy friend who is painfully insecure and has no identity apart from her. He "only has a great day if Barbie looks at him". He loves her, but she doesn't love him. He's just another accessory to her, like rollerblades or a car. She enjoys occasionally having him around... but every night is girl's night. Ouch! I never thought about Ken. That kinda sucks. What an interesting story and character arc for both Barbie and Ken. Such a dramatic juxtaposition of Barbieland with the real world. Quite clever. I'm glad I watched it!

Barbie was a legend of the 90s - not my thing, but hats off to her 🫡🤣 It weren’t Bond who saved Cinema , it was Barbie 🤣

As others have said, this definitely entertained me. I expected to be visually dazzled, and I was (I liked the Barbieland to RealWorld montages and the Ken danceoff at the end the best). The funniest part was the Kens serenading on the beach (every guy's fantasy since the days of the screaming/fainting Beatles fans). I'm not a woman, so it didn't affect me the same way that it affected you, and I can't pretend to understand the daily struggles of women. I can observe small things, though. Example: I absolutely adore Helen Mirren -- she is so intelligent and funny, and I treasure her appearances on the Graham Norton show. Here's the thing: she kinda gets treated like crap on the show. Whenever she tells a funny story, she never gets quite as much laughter as any male guest's story. She is habitually cut off while speaking. And after the interruption she's never allowed to get back to her point. She's about as legendary as they come in the industry, and these are supposedly the most "enlightened" men in the world (at least that's what Hollywood and its UK equivalent proclaim to be) -- and she still gets this treatment, and other subtle forms of disrespect. It really infuriates me, and I imagine this is only a taste of what most women suffer daily.

But, like you said at the end, this movie isn't just for women, it's for everyone. And I'm glad you mentioned that, because I don't think "MEN" as a whole rule the world, it's particular groups of elite men (and a few women). Most men are just trying to get by and don't really exercise a significant amount of power, imo, just by virtue of being male. I think this film is a very important statement in the history of the conversation about gender relations, but it really is just a start. This might be a bleak POV, but fundamentally, I think most people are really quite selfish and, while they don't wish to harm others, don't really care that much about the welfare of others. To paraphrase the philosopher/economist Adam Smith, most people would be much more troubled by the loss of their own little finger than by the deaths of millions in an earthquake in China. (It's true, I really do forget most of the bad news on tv by my second coffee.) As long as that's true, I think gender relations will only improve in fits and starts. Bottom line: women definitely deserve to be treated with more equality and respect. And I'm not going to throw in a "BUT" here, saying that most men have it tough, too. I just am curious if, in the decades to come, there will be some sort of a male response in this conversation. I'd be interested to see what that film would look like. I was glad to see your heartfelt reaction. This was definitely more thought-provoking than I expected, and it was done in a playful, and not mean-spirited, way. Glad to have seen it.

Such a great movie, I am a guy and I love this movie, it just shows modern men/woman gender roles so well, woman stil get fucked in this sort of situation, they alwas have to be stong, but it also shows how men arent appreciated anymore and are painted as the villan even tho most guys arent that problem, its just such a well made movie showing both sides. Shit is bad these days, and woman still have it worse im sure, but men also struggle more than ever because of the "meta". Very well done, its a move that is great for everyone.

A great movie that doesn't pull any punches. I love it. The lesson for Kens is that patriarchy also makes life terrible for men. *Much* worse for women of course, but patriarchal expectations rob men of so much of their humanity (anger is the only acceptable emotion; mocked for enjoying anything coded as feminine; affection and expression of love treated as weakness; etc. and so much more).
