I wanted to love this movie but it just wasn't it :(

It was nothing that hasn't been done before. It didn't really say anything. I hate using the word woke, but hearing the same talking points is tiring. We understand, the patriarchy is bad. But I didn't go to this movie to be preached to.

I was hoping it would be a bit more camp. I was expecting it to be like the Barbie animated films you get, which ngl, are usually good. This was far from that.

The ending was also a bit dragged out. It was trying very hard to be profound and it wasn't working.

I didn't care for any of the characters much either and was a little sad to not see Raquelle or any of Barbie's sisters apart from Skipper.

Apart from the criticism, I thought the costume design was really well executed. Margot Robbie looked fabulous at all times.
