The film was entertaining enough but only just. I think if it hadn't had Ryan Gosling in it, it would have been something of a snore fest which is ironic as it was aimed to be a female vehicle.

I understand the premise of Barbie wanting to go to the real world in order to find a cure of becoming human. However, it's not a very well rounded tale. There's the odd amusing scene throughout until the Ken dance/song near the end, which ends up being hilarious and has added a good two stars to my review.

It takes itself a little bit too seriously at times when really it could have done with a bit more humor. Overall not bad.
