Firstly, as a general opinion, I can say that I didn't want to watch the Barbie movie due to various comments and, at some point, the incredible and, at the same time, exhausting advertising that led to it being overloaded in its release year. Seven months later, I decided to watch it, and although I'm not a filmmaker but I'm cinephile by hobby, I can say I've seen many good movies and award-winning productions with positive reviews. Barbie confidently joins those ranks. What I mean is that while Barbie isn't the movie of the century, it can position itself among great productions beyond surface-level judgments.

Barbie is a film that conveys not just one but several significant messages directly connected to the realities of today. Greta Gerwing showcased an incredible ability to mix and convey a very real message using a doll, particularly one embodying one of the largest perfection stereotypes in history-the Barbie. Her work is admirable.

Beyond what everyone talked about regarding this film, the truth is that it teaches the viewer, in contrast to what each person in this world may want to be, to face the harsh reality of our world. It touches on strong themes such as patriarchy, power, feminism, equality, development, intrafamily and interpersonal relationships, and many more. It doesn't present them in a straightforward and subjective manner, giving us a taste of authenticity in the superficial.

It's a film, as mentioned earlier, that shows much more than the Barbie doll at first glance. It teaches you the tough reality that can be, for example, for a teenager or anyone going through the changes of growing up and how you can accept yourself and find your own identity. It conveys this in a way that can be summarized as a life lesson.

For a long time, I hadn't seen a film that, on a personal level, impacted me in the way this Barbie movie did. I certify the greatness of this production, from every tiny detail to the numerous messages and teachings it imparts.

Getting into specifics, there's much to say about this production, such as Greta Gerwing's outstanding direction evident in every detail of the film. Margot Robbie's performance, whom I've watched grow in various films and recently in an underrated role in "Babylon," where she delivered a splendid performance showcasing her immense potential. In Barbie, she reminded us of this potential in an exemplary way. Margot completely immersed herself, providing us with a phenomenal performance that conveyed emotions in a way that resonated with me. I believe she did this with many others, making her an impeccable actress. In a drama, you expect it to convey emotions, and Margot exceeded any expectations, displaying the true authenticity of her performance. Ryan Gosling, as expected, also delivered an impeccable performance, effectively conveying his emotions. However, as anticipated, the protagonist stole the show, and I emphasize that I share the sentiment of dissatisfaction at not seeing her at least nominated for an Oscar, along with her director.

In terms of the music, it's evident that three songs stand out. I'll start with "Dance The Night," another masterpiece that conveys, above all, a message in its lyrics, providing a reality check to what could have been a conventional and commercial pop song. It doesn't show the superficiality but rather blends the movie's own message of superficiality and reality. The next is "I'm Just Ken," a song that truthfully teaches me who I am and who I can be, encapsulating in a single song the explanation of Ken's frustration and that particular theme in real life. Finally, the magnificent song that defies description is "What Was I Made For?". I feel it's a song sung from the depths of Adele's sorrow in one of her songs, and no, this time it's not her; it's Billie Eilish. The entire film and life itself are summarized in a grand closing and concluding song in this movie, saying so much in so little. It's the unparalleled nature of this song, especially with Billie's performance, which conveyed the emotion 100%. Undoubtedly, it's one of the best songs in a movie.

In conclusion, as the title suggests, this is somewhat of an essay on Barbie. Barbie is much more than the Barbie movie and provokes profound thoughts. It's a film that delves into many themes, something that Greta skillfully utilized from the brand. If she had handled this differently, it might not have had the same impact. Although there are mixed opinions about this film, what is apparent needs no mention, and this is what the film offers beyond a brand. Barbie is undoubtedly one of the best movies of the decade.
