I may be an anomaly in that barbie didn't really do it for me. As a person who has read a lot of books about women's rights and the experiences of women, it felt a little too on the nose for me BUT I've enjoyed talking to others about it and have since realized many people probably do need to hear that stuff out loud. And I'm glad it's really touching people.

I will say the costumes and throwbacks to some of the dolls I had a kid was a nice surprise.

I'm hoping you'll write about your viewing experience (likes and confusion) I always enjoy what you have to say.

I don't think you're an anomaly and I pretty much agree with what you've said.

I didn't even read that much on these topics, but I kind of feel the same (for various reasons). Again, not saying it does not exist, just that I've experienced life very differently than many women, so I also learn by listening to them. And I kind of had the same feeling as you, by watching and listening to the 4 teenagers who were at the screening and seem to be enjoying themselves very much. And if it's good for them, the movie is worth existing already.

The costumes, decors and throwbacks were pretty to watch (I wasn't really into Barbies as a kid so none of it was really relatable to me) but I can recognize a well built universe for the movie. I regret that it sometimes felt kind of like an #ad for Mattel and selling Barbies (as do many of other franchise movies). Like: https://shopping.mattel.com/fr-fr/collections/barbie-the-movie where did they draw the line between feminism and "womenwashing" ? Seems a bit too low to me.

I'm still not sure about how to write about my viewing experience to be honest. I liked Weird Barbie for example, because it felt like she has the most subtlety in her lines but overall, I think my main problem was with the script itself? I think that by trying to write something intelligent and engaged but with big budget and massive audience targeting constraints they've ended up with a movie lacking of coherences in the storytelling? They kind of lost me from the moment they go back to Barbie Land, I think. I don't know how to express it but I guess my main interrogation is what was a point (beside the one carried by Ken)? Does Barbie Land is supposed to feel fixed at the end of the movie? Or are Barbies the men of the real world ('s movies) and are we supposed to know that bad people have won in Barbie Land? If so, was the point making a movie where the oppressive part of society is still in charge at the end? Where does the want of Stereotypical Barbie to be human come from? and what does it say in the general meaning of the movie?

A few of many questions I could ask myself so yeah very confused I am. I'll probably browse through analysis of the movie to find some answers when I'll have a bit of time to do that but I thought it would be fun to ask around first.

Thank for sending me your message and a bit of your opinion about the movie, dear Nonny. It helped reading some of your thoughts and having to put some of mine in actual words to answer you 🙏💜
