First of all, this film is not for everybody. Tho it should be, if we follow the principle this film is trying to teach us.

I loved the funny segments in this. They are always introducing some new gimmicky ways to make me laugh. The comedic timing in this is very well done and hits my spots exactly. It is right between "we make a whole big sketch setup for the next scene, just wait one scene!" and "this is my catchphrase, laugh at it!". Somehow they managed to pack that into every little part and dialogue. So props to that.

The overall message of this movie seems a bit preachy and too much. I can not describe how, it just did not catch me. It basically was the right tone and meaning for today, but the delivery is somehow a bit too 1990 for me. Basically I did not really felt the struggle of the main Barbie, but more of the support cast. They made the story feel more alive. Maybe that was the meaning of all of this. Eitherway it started a thought process in me, so I guess they hit the spot also in this regard.

I was not pleased with the song intermissions, which gave this film a less meaningfull tone than it could have been. Performances were great along the board.

So defintely a watchable experience with little laughs and moments to reflect. But not too much, so do not expect a lifechanging lecture on humans.
