You're watching it wrong. Inadvertently BASED: Barbie Movie Review - So Woke it Devolves into Hilarious Satire!!

I expected that I would hate it and my wife would love it.
She hated it and I laughed my arse off the whole time at the absurdity of it all.

I watched it and found it to be pretty funny
I am not the target audience either, so I’m not all in on the hype as much, but it did make me laugh

It was ironically unironic, or something.
Don't care, won't ever see it unless it's on free TV and I'm absolutely bored with nothing else to ... nope. Never gonna watch.

I thought it was awful. Like a legit terrible, unentertaining movie.
The director is going to get a lot of jobs because she made a lot of money with a toy movie every girl was guaranteed to see. It will all be crap, too, if it's anything like Barbie.

Watched most of it with my wife last week on hbo. I thought it was pretty clever at the beginning but the heavy handedness of the pro female stuff lost its dragged it down really quickly. I feel like they could’ve gone for the same thing in a more subtle,clever way but it was almost paint by numbers by the end.

I got the impression in the first 20 mins until I stopped watching that it would have been much funnier if I was high.

I went in actually expecting to hate it, considering the overt anti-patriarchy premise, but came out pleasantly surprised.
No matter how popcorny, I'm a sucker for universe-colliding/fish-out-of-water movies (Free Guy, Back to the Future, Edge of Tomorrow, Spiderman Across the Universe, Matrix, Star Trek 4, Stargate, etc). I did not know Barbie had that element. I was entertained just by that.

Fun fact. Wolfgang Van Halen and Slash played some guitar solos for the movie.

I watched it last night and I loved it! I am gonna watch it again with my little brother (he lives across the street). I think he will get a kick at all the little jabs.
My favorite part when Barbie was supposed to look average and not beautiful...when the voice over says "Margo Robbie should not have been cast in this role to make this point" (or something like that).
Then I watched "The Devil Wears Prada" based on someone on this boards guilty pleasures and I enjoyed it as well.
Maybe it was the vodka and "cookies"...but I had fun last night.
Worst case scenario...you get to look at Margo Robbie for 2 hours.

So it’s safe to say you cannot feel the Kenergy, then?

So, is essence you discovered you do have a set of balls after all and this chick-flick drivel is not your cup of tea.
Welcome to manhood.

For me it was 1 hour and 55 minutes of bleh and 5 minutes of peak entertainment with I'm Just Ken.
