The marketing for this movie was seriously unlike anything else Billie Eillish, Xbox, Aldo, Burger King? Nyx, Forever 21, google etc.

It had a LOT of adult concepts and words that would go right over the kiddos heads (gynecologist, patriarchy, genitals, "beaching each other off") honestly i don't think small children would enjoy it much. It was definitely more for teens and adults (PG13) it had a lot of great comedy. I liked seeing Barbieland ran by women in strong leadership positions and think the ken dolls were fun depicted as accessories/ kinda lost without Barbie. It was cool to have a deep realistic spin on it but it's just not a feel good movie like I had hoped since they had Ken be so angry the whole movie, all the creepy men and the constant crying and anxiety from Barbie . We were in the existential anxiety part for most of the movie which made the happy ending feel super rushed.

I think my low review has to do with the fact that we live through all the body image issues and sexism gender role stuff it's nice to take a break and watch a light hearted movie every once in a while.
