I didn’t mind it at all, and just watched it for the daftness and the epic tunes.
I’m not going to read much into a movie about dolls. I got the the whole intention of the male/female power-dynamic/divide or whatever. It’s nothing I’ve ever thought about. Or cared to. Or ever will in this moment of time.
Never seen a Barbie or Ken doll in my life, never wanted one, and have no interest in these creations.
I’m sure there is a massive yet subtle subtext to everything in this film, but I’ll leave that to the ‘professionals’.
It was entertaining. It has made a billion. Is that how easy it is? Movie about Bagpuss next. I want to see Bagpuss on a cocaine binge that Jordan Belfort would clap at.
Meow.
And ‘Barbie Girl’, THE tune of the ’90s, made an ‘appearance’. In a way ….
