I finally had the chance to watch the wonderful Barbie movie, and I must say, it did not disappoint me at all. In fact, it surpassed my expectations! Barbie turned out to be much more than what I initially imagined-it's truly remarkable!

One thing I really liked was how Greta addressed all the criticisms about Barbie while infusing a feminist twist into the doll (Barbie was the first doll which had power of chosing). Gerwig's take on childhood and the patriarchy and feminism and love and death resonated throughout the film, adding an extra layer of depth and thought-provoking themes. I found myself both shedding a few tears and laughing heartily. The movie was incredibly humorous and touched upon meaningful aspects of life.

I took my 11-year-old niece to see it, and she loved it too (although I'm sure some of the social points might have gone over her head).

The sets, hair, and costumes were absolutely outstanding. The cast delivered stunning performances: America Ferrera gave a deeply moving speech, and Ryan Gosling's performance stole the show, proving many, myself included, wrong about his suitability for the role.

Lastly, I must mention Margot Robbie, who was simply stunning and the perfect fit for Barbie. She was naive, sweet, and camp, all wrapped up in a "stereotypical Barbie". Although Anne Hathaway and Amy Schumer were previously associated with the project, I am delighted that Margot Robbie made it happen.
