I just saw Barbie, and I thought that it was pretty good

#barbie spoilers #long tags #I definitely have a few nitpicks though #it sort of felt like they had a ton of ideas but not really enough movie to put all of those ideas into #so they just put a bit of each of those ideas in and it didn't feel very cohesive #for example Allen didn't make very much sense #they made a big deal about how there's only one allen and how he's not a ken #but all of the different named barbies (midge for example) were still considered barbies #also allen's motivations were not clear #at first he was trying to escape from ken land #but he ended up just going back after beating up some of the kens #and then he tried to return barbieland back to how it was #even though his life with the barbies in charge was pretty much just as bad as it was with the kens #another thing that bugged me was the mattel executives #I liked the first bit with them chasing down barbie and ken but after that they just seemed kind of pointless #and they just appeared at the end for pretty much no reason #also the guy who told the execs that barbie and ken were on the loose was just kind of there for the rest of the movie #which I thought seemed weird #I've still got quite a few more nitpicks but I'm realizing that this is all kind of rambly and that I should probably stop here #text post #barbie
