    Entertaining but very silly. Not what I expected.

    that a movie about a doll acquiring self awareness could bring about a self reckoning of women all over the world. The acting was spot on & Barbieland, although overstimulating, was pretty much as I would have imagined when I held my first Barbie (over 50 years ago). I easily could have missed this one. So very grateful that I didn’t!

    Hateful, dystopian nightmare which is not acknowledged to be a dystopian nightmare. Propaganda in its competent, more sinister form than the usual too-on-the-nose, and therefore failing type.

    Don't waste your time and money. If you're into cringeworthy speeches, lame strategies and general over-acting, then you will enjoy this film. I left the theatre feeling like i lost my IQ after watching this trash.

    Hoping to have a light hearted, nostalgic night - nope! What a mistake. Messages in this movie couldn't be worse. Not for kids. Only for unhappy, unhinged, super feminists who's idea of a good life consists of either the domination, or the total erasure of men. Really? This is empowerment and inspiration? Barf.

    It would seem many of the bad reviews are from people who didn’t even watch it. If you think it’s mean spirited or “man hating” then you totally missed the point of the movie or didn’t even see it. It was funny, yet somewhat even a little sad at times. It had a great message about equality. The sexual innuendo was mild and would go over the heads of most children, but it wasn’t made for kids anyway.

    From the opening scene of the movie (2001 spoof), I found the film silly, entertaining, and quite funny. Is it perfect, no, but it's visually stunning, and the actors really went for it. Don't overanalyze this, it's a great popcorn film. I feel sorry for those that just can't enjoy something for what it is but needs to find a secret agenda.
