1 point lost for the storyline, it lacked a clear/meaningful plot that the viewer can use to surmise the movie at the end.

1 point lost for the sub-storylines, which were used to haphazardly throw together the main storyline. But none of these sub-storylines truly resolved or offered the viewer any closure.

1 point lost for the poorly made costumes - the Barbie cowgirl pants werd ill-fitting and made of cheap material. It's Barbie - you don't skint in fashion.

1 point lost for the casting of non-value add supporting characters which just contributed to more confusion on an ill-defined plot.

1 point lost for the absence of key characters from the Barbieworld, these include Kelly and her multitude of pets.

1 point lost for the ending which was unrelated to anything that happened in the film and just further ingrained the fact that the movie lacked any real story telling.

Positives are that Margot Robbie was perfectly cast for the lead role, as well as Ryan Gosling as Ken (though another point lost here because I felt like his character wasn't utilised effectively).

The real life facts throughout the film also served as nice little of trivia nuggets.
