This movie was a pleseant surprise. It managed to strike an excellent balance between adult and child themes, and essentially all of the humor lands well.

Towards the end it gets a little preachy with a certain character's speech, which takes away from the movie a bit. The speech itself just felt odd and was a bit on the nose compared to the rest of the movie, but they managed to tie it all up at the end of the movie fairly nicely so I am willing to overlook that. I really enjoyed the overall approach they took to the Barbie Movie and it had many little humorous surprises.

I'd highly reccomend the movie. It was a fun time and even now the theatres are still packed!
