I dont understand how many people were misunderstanding Ken in the movie.
Ken doesn't exist to cater to the anti-men audience, his whole arc is knowing that he is good enough, kenough.
Barbie represents the women and how they dont have to be under pressure to be a mother or housewife and can be anything.
Ken represents the men and how they dont have to be under pressure to be better to fit the society and they are good enough as they are
But they are second fiddle to barbies at the start and at the end. There's no speck of equality
Every thing is fine and dandy, what put me off was climax, where "Ken" will be forced to live life as before, till sexism prevails in real world. That messaging made me uncomfy. Although if the end was like that Barbie and Ken both acknowledge their actions and have a pact to work together to create more equal Barbie land, I would have got behind the movie
@@dashmeetsingh9679 Yeah. The movie should have been longer to better explain stuff and give a more satisfying conclusion
@@fullesperalchemist3695 Hurray to satisfying conclusion, boo to be longer.
@@dashmeetsingh9679they actually did that- didn't you hear what the president barbie said? They won't go back to previous barbie land
When I went for the movie, one thing brought me more happiness than the movie. There was a group of three women in there 60's wearing matching white trousers and pink shirts. With large bucket of popcorn on the most expensive recliner seats and enjoying the entire movie.
Yassssss 🤩🤩🤩🤩💖
I don't understand why most expensive recliner matters here? Enlighten me
@@krishnavamsivarigonda it's not some philosophy that needs enlightenment. It's just that they were enjoying themselves at best. They were there to enjoy themselves without thinking about anything else. And I really don't see the purpose of you pointing out the recliner seats.

This was the greatest bait and switch of all time. I cannot fathom how they managed to hide so much of the movie in the marketing.

If we can have more than one Kartik Aryan monologues in a lifetime, we can most definitely have an America Ferrera monologue without criticising it.
preach! that america ferrera monologue was so good.
Who is she ?
@@shines24 she is one of the character in Barbie movie.
We need more of Helen Mirren as a narrator and also the random quip about casting Margot Robbie was delivered to perfection.
Oh my god, we follow so many of the same channels. At this point I've seen you at Jack Edwards' channel, Jesse the reader, jaby okay, The take, n who knows how many more😂. N somehow you always have the top comments.
Secondly, I SO agree. The narrator was a gem giving that Margot Robbie casting line 😂
I think the climax was perfect. Especially because of the scene where barbie meets the old lady. There are no old barbies in barbieland and thats why margot's barbie finds aging such a beautiful process and thats why she chooses to be a human and to life a meaningful life. Ik many wanted a romantic storyline between barbie and ken but im happy they didn't go in that direction (for the leads). The way ken has been marketed by mattel is like an accessory to barbie, having no personality of his own and barbie was never marketed to be in love with ken. I think its beautiful greta focused on showing its important to be our own selves and have our indentity before pursuing a romantic relationship. If not, one person is always going to feel insecure.
I'll have to disagree on the ken statement, Ken has has multiple dresses and jobs and a personality of his own. In fact his creation was due to the girls playing with the doll wanting Barbie to have a boyfriend, it might be me but I don't really like the new direction they took in the movie
@@misfitrogue989 yes I agree ken had many jobs but you also gotta why he did that in the first place; it was all but to impress barbie. Like it said in the movie, Ken's best day is when barbie noticed him. That's why I said he has no personality of his own cause everything he says and does is to get barbie's validation. The sad thing is barbie dosent reciprocate the same feelings. That's why I feel it's for the best she didn't end up with him. She was stayed longer in the real world than ken and realised the she isn't the empowering icon she thought she is and the unrealistic standards she set up for young girls. And in my opinion that's another she wanted to be a human. But I respect your opinion and the climax is anyway open for interpretation :)
Who climaxed?
my only problem is in real world everymen is cartoonishly irreedemable evil like all male characters are kind of useless but that a personal grudge it's kabir singh for men
There was no need of Ken in the 1st place.
Are there no problems women face without including men?
In a hall full of pink including me, my husband was so happy to see a movie where women actually celebrated themselves. And of course we loved Ryan gosling’s comic timing. Hilarious.
Now that's a secure man. It seems you managed to get a good one.

I was so happy seeing John cena in this brief cameo. As a person who grew up watching wwe, it's like a great moment for me whenever i watch him on screen even though most of his movies suck except Barbie and peacemaker series. It's so fun to watch him.
I would have loved if he was one of the Ken's. It would have been hilarious to see a fully jacked Ken right next to the lean Gosling in every scene
Thanks for the spoiler 🤨
@@snighdhashaw978he was literally named in the cast and crew in the trailer
He has no compassion for the Taiwanese so it makes sense that he has none for men either
You saw John Cena??? 🌚
Ryan Gosling should do more comedy films. He mostly does this dark movies which i really love my the way like blue valentine and place beyond pines and i can only think of mr nice guys as his other comedy role. Ryan Gosling just stole the show for me. Would love to see his other comedic roles.
He really did steal the show!
Check out The Nice Guys, Gosling's comedy chops are on show and on point. Also it's a fantastic film👍🏼👊🏼
Crazy stupid love is my another favourite.
Lars and the real girl, crazy stupid love
@@Asine Lars and the girl i don't find it to be comedy comedy tho
SPOILER ALERT!
I actually liked the ending. It was uncertain, it was kinda left at a place where it left you wondering what's next for Barbie, but isn't that what growing up is all about. It's scary, it's uncertain, but that's the beauty of it. It gives you the opportunity to find yourself, find your purpose and ultimately be the best version of yourself. And this moment is perfectly paired with Billie Eilish's "What Was I Made For?" When the lyrics go "I don't know how to feel, but I want to try", that basically translates to it can be tough being in the real world, but we can definitely try. Barbie realizes that she can no longer be a stereotype, an ideal which can result in a polarized world. The real world is much more complicated than that and she wants to experience it for herself so that she can be a better version of herself, someone that people can relate to.
Love this!
I want part 2 :) "Ken" maybe
The real world is OnlyFools/OnlyFans for modern women.
my only problem is in real world everymen is cartoonishly irreedemable evil like all male characters are kind of useless but that a personal grudge it's kabir singh for men
Generic monologue?! It was everything. My friend and I cried after that. That speech explained our experience in a way I could have never been to explain. Same with when barbie experiences emotions and choose to be human after witnessing how it feels to be woman, just living with other woman and without any expectations. Even when it hurts to be woman cux she literally faces sexual harassment and says she feels unsafe (where ken was like I love it). This movie made me sob. I loved it.
Eveyrone only cares about "how it feels to be woman" , but no one cares about "how it feels to be a man". Non eof the modern movies aimed at men protry women in a bad light while in all the female targeted movies, men are just jerks or idiots. And for some reason, women loves it. Why do most women hates men?
@@RoRZoro
Women don't like/love other women and hate men.
Thats why they are miserable and they want to blame something/someone for it..and this will only get worse.
Women envy bromances coz they themselves can't go by even a day without bitching about every female in their life.
All the comments you saw in this comment section with a feeling of #Yougogirl will realize/face the reality 10 years down the line.
Amd those who are already married are raising problematic kids.
@@Wanheda10094 its gonna turn out just like in the west. As throughout the history, women's inability to grasp reality, inability to think logically instead of emotionally and zero accountability will keep causing problems to our society and eventually after men solving the problem, men will be blamed upon as usual.
Saaaame. I remember everyone went quiet when America Ferrera did that monologue. It hit home!
america ferrera needs a best supporting actress nomination just for that monologue.
I loved the whole experience of watching in theaters with women cheering, everyone dressed in pink, girls saying HI BARBIE to each other omg I've never felt this type of experience before
Cringe.

Eww
I agree. Girls being silly and being brought together by our wonderful memories of playing with barbie. It was great to see it.
The makers of Barbie did a great job in keeping the plot hidden. Most of the criticism is bizarre and especially from those who didn't understand the film at all. Conservatives are equating the scene of kids throwing away baby dolls for Barbie to abortion 💀
Okay that's a stretch! The triggered takes have really gone in their own wormhole of believing the boogeyman
Matriarchy is not any better than patriarchy.
@@ankansenapati3600nobody here talking about matriarchy or wishing anything like that
Its just a satire which shows you the opposite of world and how disturbing it is with lots of joke
@@amimim69 it's end with how Barbie defeats ken and restablish their rule in the Barbie World.
Says a woke feminist.
The empathy men felt for the condition of ken in the barbie world should be felt for women in the real world.
The men in Barbie world literally had no agency. They had no basic education and jobs.
In the real world, even though men have controlled the world for the most part, still there have been many women who took powerful positions of leadership. In the real world, you only need the right amount of qualification and experience to hold powerful positions. Doesn't matter what you've between your legs.
Exactly 💯
This film needs to be shown to Islamic states like Saudi, Pakistan etc. Yes India is pretty bad too but Barbie will be watched by only the Urban elites. The peaceful people (muzlim) should watch this movie and treat women with respect.
@@Elninojunior I guess it's already banned or postponed there. They and any empathy for women never goes hand in hand.
oooooooo 👀
The movie is a good watch. I never saw it as anti-men. The lore of Barbieland is that the Barbies are the main character there and the Kens are secondary. The dialogue about how women are never good enough does hit a chord. I literally expected to walk out of the theatre with a bad self-image as Barbie is known for her physical beauty but it was the opposite. And moreover for girls who had a Barbie doll in their childhood, this movie was a trip down memory lane and a good one at that.
It's funny how people think this movie is anti men when the movie is co-written by a man. I'm a man and I loved this movie, not in a slightest do I think the movie is anti man
@@BryanCostnerIn US most of the review folks are grilling the movie accusing it for too much wokeism, I mean come on, it's just a movie, haha
@@Jay-ew4zc Ikr, what a knucklehead 😂😂 Double Toasted did the review and criticism better
This movie was so boringly patronising...When will Americans learn that the rest of the world does not per se share their obsession with race, gender, patriarchy, identify politics and political correctness?
@@H3nry488why?? Because rest of the world doesn't see anything wrong with men killing/raping women?
Your review is the most balanced I have seen so far. It is so funny that on one side you have woman reviewers who praise barbie for its message and on the other side some men reviewers dismiss this movie as bing "woke" and "anti-men".
For me it was a solid movie. Growing up the media and social circle always made me believe that if you like pink you will not be taken seriously. So I never owned anything pink so that people take me "seriously". But I love how because of barbie people are not afraid to showoff and dress up for the occasion. even tho it is just a movie.
It is woke, and Funny you say this, most reviewers that criticise it are woman, every man just says "its not for me" to avoid nutjobs and crybabies
I have seen a lot of woman reviewers who dissmiss the movie as being anti-men. And ofcourse ytou'll love the movie as you are not a man and you have no idea how men are treated by society. There is litterally no good men in the movie and the vast majority of men in the movie are idiots or useless. You might not even know that double the amount of men commit suicide than women.
It's fine. Everyone can have their own opinion there many women reviewers who dismiss many movies as misogynistic when those movies are not misogynistic at all
@@Xyz_curiouslike pyar ka punchnama 😂.
Women wearing pink has always been embraced.
For people to take you seriously you need strength, wisdom and leadership. You are not just ignored coz you are women. You lack those qualities that might have been the case.
Barbie was never about treating Kens(Men) wrong in a fantasy world to satisfy women. It's satire. The whole point is that they treat Ken how women are treated in real world/ Male centred films. Hence the comments "Everything is opposite here" by Ken
Those also triggered by ken being reduced to being objects of desire forget what most people have been complaining about for generations regarding the portrayal of women in films
And you say there is no propaganda
@@TriedRefusedProductions EXACTLY the discomfort of the guy sitting beside me towards the end was laughable considering he was so hyped and giggling when Barbie gets catcalled in the real world
You cannot fight sexism with sexism
@@Misyognitic-king😂😂😂😂😂 pRoPaGaNdA
i think America's monologue about women was necessary. yes, the movie already had running themes of feminism throughout, but understanding the reason why women feel persecuted and insecure was hugely necessary. most men (in my opinion) immediately think about political rights and gender roles when asked about women's plight. but its the little things that they don't think about that really weigh on us and make women feel tied and hopeless. its a remarkable message to all young girls as well so that they know the distinction between 'true beauty' and 'unrealistic beauty'. it ties the entire movie together and makes it more impactful.
I think the rant could have been better written tbh.
Otherwise I liked the movie
I agree. Plus you can't overestimate common sense apparently, cuz so many people (men mostly) disliked the portrayal of Ken and his irrelevance when the point was exactly that, to reflect how women are relegated to irrelevant positions in the real world and also often in movies.
So an explicit rant was important in my opinion lmao.
@@someoneyouprobablyknowandl9964 yes, absolutely. its important to highlight why Barbie dolls weren't very much accepted because of the unrealistic beauty standards they set. its important to know why that affects women and how simple matters such as style and beauty can govern the whole concept of women's persona.
@@anvitamohan7939 it's not a rant for women - it's her expression
@@sbasi2739 it was poorly written in my opinion. Hence I called it a rant.
2 underrated Gags:
- Barbie saying she doesn’t have railway or modes of commerce to be called a Fascist
- Gloria’s ex-husband speaking Spanish.
*SHOCKED* to find that the toy commercial aimed at little girls is not appealing to the bros.
Kudos to Barbie for triggering the most annoying and whiny people on yhe internet.
I liked it being Bro😂
It's not appealing to people who can't get metaphors
Not appealing to the bros?

It's not aimed at little girl. It is aimed at adult women and men.

Yes😂😂
I'm quite fond of the Greta Gerwig cinema, but always wondered how are they going to blend that sensitive content into something fun, comedic and commercially viable movie. It's damn tricky. It turned out better than I expected from a fun movie.
Its a tight rope act indeed. It can easily transition to be a total mess. She did a great job in that regard.
This movie is actually so sympathetic towards men. Some guys have increased found themselves lost because society’s traditional expectations of them are less relevant as women are earning more and being more successful. However this doesn’t mean men aren’t important and are “lesser” in any way to the women in their lives even if their wives/ gfs are the breadwinner or are more successful than them. The struggles Ken go through to find an identity and be “not just Ken” is a perfect encapsulation of this struggle. It also puts men in the shoes of the women like our mothers and grandmothers who were often often expected to stand behind and support the man of the house and a toll the lack of self respect takes on a person. It’s a wonderful movie and well thought out.
You wrote often twice.
Very well said👏🏼
Why Bernie don't go to Afghanistan to enjoy proper patriarchal society
No woman wants a man who earns less than her this is complete nonsense
and people dare to said that the movie is anti-men
Imagine a movie having Barbie and Ken and not a pinch of sexualisation in the camera work. Greta Gerwig you took my heart with this one.
I can see myself coming back to this movie on days when I need a “pick me up”.
Barbie in general never had sexualization though. It was very pure in nature.
@@anvitamohan7939barbie hasn’t, but margot robbie has always been sexualised in her movies. WOWS, Suicide squad, babylon, etc
@@axyzsz8162 the person mentioned Barbie and Ken not Margot. Barbie and Ken never had any such things related to them
@@anvitamohan7939 true, I was just giving my own opinion
There were many sexual references made in the movie though
But the crazy part in Barbheimer debate is that , Barbie turned out to be more dark and deep than Oppenheimer which seemed more accessible and straight forward.
It wanted to be deep but it was shallow. Nowhere close to Nolan's film in craft and execution.
The film was quite self aware and meta with the way it makes fun of its own IP, the WB jokes and Zack Snyder digs were hilarious. Spoiler alert‼️ the ending actually made me chuckle because everyone was expecting Barbie to do something serious and impactful but at the end of the day it’s just a doll/toy, as point out in the cafeteria scene it’s unrealistic portrayal of women is bad but it’s just a toy. Overall the film surprised me with it’s social commentary, the ending could have been better with a conclusive ending. Have to give credit to the director for pulling it off so wonderfully. P.S I’m just Ken should get an Oscar!
its pretty crazy that contenders for supporting roles would have the range of RDJ in oppenheimer and Gosling in Barbie
I think this is greta gredwrig style in general she never had a closed ending she always left the ending for viewers imagination it happens in both lady Bird and little women
I'm surprised how Barbie is more political than Oppenheimer which is 75% politics
Kate McKinnon and Michael Cera as Weird Barbie and Allan deserve a separate comedy award.
P.S. Weird Barbie’s house was the best.
I agree with what you have described Jammy.. however as a woman the monologue by American Ferrara was amazing and I felt it was something that had to be voiced out..and the ad campaign they do for depressed Barbie was the most relatable piece I have watched in a movie so far !
It needed to be voiced out in 1980. Here in 2023 in the west, those problems are the product of women setting their own unreachable goals. Don't do that anymore. Find your own agency.
I recently saw this movie , and it's has been my favorite movie this year (I will be seeing Oppenheimer this Wednesday, so this opinion may change). The atmosphere that was present in the theater was amicable. I was surrounded by young and old couples, families with their young kids (both boys and girls), older sons with their female family members, older daughters with their female family members, and a group of girls with their mothers.I even sat by a three generation family (daughter, mother, and grandmother). It was beyond beautiful, and I have to commend Greta for truly making a movie for everyone.
my favorite part of the movie is how men are butthurt over it. The entire existence of Ken and everyother male charater is satire to show how women are treated in most movies. taking away privilege from opressors does feel unfair and it's clearly seen here.
The discourse has become crazy about how this is pushing a certain narrative that is anti-men!
Well don't women always complain how men cannot write women characters properly? So likely women also can't write male characters. Aapka complain oppression hamara complain buthurt.
@@sarangakarte9168it is satire kens chrachter is well written he has full ark in this story what are you talking about ??? in this movie ken feels like he is just ken in the barbie land no use just beach but when he goes to real world he see the patriarchal society and brings it back to barbie land and has a whole moment with it and then ofc the story goes on
@@TriedRefusedProductions it does you woke
My favourite part of your opinion is how much you care about our butts than the plot of the film.
I think everyone should watch this movie once irrespective of gender age or caste... don't be fooled by the title and go without judgements...simply loved it ❤🎉
You loved it because you hate men.
It was so lovely to see people dressed up in pink . I never experienced people embracing their femininity for a film. The way the entire theatre laughed out loud, cheered and screamed. I've only seen that happening for super hero films. It was heartwarming.
Also, can we just have this film without some men cribbing that it's anti-men !! I LOVE GRETA, as an aspiring filmmaker, it means so much to me. The behind the scenes of Greta laughing and having the time of her life while directing is inspiring. She is unapologetically herself and that reflects in the film.
I deeply resonated with the film, even though I never played with Barbies as a child, the feeling of being lost as a twenty something, trying to get in touch with inner child and escape the chaos of adulthood.
SPOILER :
The existential crisis of barbie was so relatable. The depression barbie was equally hard hitting and damn funny. The climax when Barbie just feels was so emotional, somehow in the chaos of life, we forgot how to feel and be absolutely human.
All men have fragile egos. They think all movies should be male oriented. That’s what’s upsetting them. Screw men.

Edit karle comment jaldi.
I sort of like to think that Ryan Gosling's Ken was searching for his own identity & once he gets to know about patriarchy he thinks thats his identity. I don't beleive that the film was about Anti men but a person looking for their identity & individuality.

Exactly my view on Barbie. I absolutely loved Barbie. I had so much fun while watching this movie in a packed theatre. It was hilarious, crazy, weird and deeply thought provoking for me. In the hands of a lesser director this could have easily become one of the male-bashing female oriented movies. But herein lies the creative genius of Greta Gerwig. She makes sure to become a voice for both Barbies and Kens of the world. It also questions why even the Kens of the world are also somewhat brainwashed to behave in a certain way since childhood, similar to how the girls were, with the baby dolls.
In the end, I was shedding a tear or two as well. And I found the ending to be liberating with Ken finally finding his own identity and the quote that I loved towards the end, 'It is not Barbie and Ken, but It is Barbie and It is Ken'
And the songs were catchy and I was just enjoying those dances and colors. I would definitely recommend this movie.
I actually thought the message aspect of Barbie was actually well done, and the stuff that didn't work for me relates to the script and inconsistent tone. I thought it was a decent flick, but I can totally understand why it is being celebrated and held in high regard.
‘Barbie’ is a movie with Instagram Aesthetics and Twitter humour. I love that combination.
That actually sucks. 😅😅
The actual film aside, I love how Barbie fever has taken over! People (not just women) are all showing up in pink & I even saw 2 guys cosplaying Barbie & Ken in the theatre!

@@onasunnyday366yes. In Chennai, people in theatres were dressed up in at least one pink clothing. It was literally a sight to behold. Never saw an entire theatre crowd so sync in with a movie theme. It was good to see that.
Most men in the theatre I went to assumed that this movie will be about hot women walking around dressed pretty and a lame story. When it turned out to be an intelligent dialogue fest with amazing acting and innuendos, a lot them walked away and couldn’t bear with the subtle commentary on feminism and equality. The whole movie is about finding ones identity and self worth regardless of their gender or relationships. Although the end seemed a bit rushed and half baked, it was overall an amazing movie. Toxic masculinity still prevails and they will do anything to bring this movie down.
Edit: Also Greta is known for making movies with good script and story. People who assumed this to be a stupid movie based on the trailers are idiot themselves and just tried riding the hype train without doing any homework.

It's more about what the society expects from you. Women are expected to look beautiful like Barbie while men are expected to be dominant and strong(hence the patriarchal society). The movie is a commentary on societal expectations of males and females, and how people get so caught up to meet those expectations. I think the movie shows both males and females as victims of it. The theme is similar to that of one of my favorite films of all time i.e. Fantastic Mr Fox but it wasn't gender specific unlike Barbie.
How were men shown to be victims?
I didn't see any scene to that effect. And if you're talking about ken, then he was shown to have no agency until he came to the real world.
I mean it was sad to see him getting happy over someone asked him for the time.
And I don't understand this equal rights stuff. I don't know about Muslim countries, but aren't women given the right to have any job they're qualified to do?
Why is everybody left leaning or right leaning? Why can't people lean towards the truth?
@@Sunny-sc5vqIf you got sad seeing Ken happy about something trivial the point was that is how women feel all the time. Having the option to “be whoever you want” is just legally true for women but can’t be reality for most women due to social conditioning of how they are raised and what they are expected to be (not anyone, a wife and a mother only and grow up to be “likeable to men”). Maybe as a man you don’t know how women are raised but it’s very very deep conditioning that stops a lot of women from achieving things that they could if they weren’t stopped or denied. The only issue is physical weakness which is used against them over and over throughout life. So for you it maybe difficult to understand that women just started getting properly educated only 3 or so generations ago. Do you really think after centuries of not being educated or treated same as men - 30-40 years are enough for you to claim “there is no oppression of women?”. With what confidence can men even say what they know about being women?
@@DesiCat789so you want women domination or gender equality?
@@aasamspb967 Do you want men domination then??
@@DesiCat789 " Women started getting educated 3 or so generations ago".
We got independence like two generations ago.
Also I'm not saying that women are treated equally as men. But men too have to go through societal expectations.
This topic that we're talking is so deep and layered that it's not easy for me to write everything I'm thinking right now.
So I'll just stick to the movie.
I felt sad for ken because he felt happy when someone asked him the time. I mean I now women haven't been treated equally as men, but I don't think they were this separated from the important positions in life.
I don't know man. I want to point out many things wrong with the movie, but one part of my brain feels like an idiot for debating on this topic because of how stupid and satirical the movie is.
To me the ending meant that Barbie was now ready to be a woman, because through her journey in the film, she was now aware of how difficult it was to be a woman and yet how beautiful. It is the struggle that gives life its meaning and so she couldn’t continue living in her perfect world after having seen what womanhood is like. I think it’s a good ending for her character. Perfect, beautiful and pretty- she breaks down when she feels like those don’t define her anymore. But then she decides to become human, to explore what else she is and can become. Like every woman who has found a level of freedom, strength and agency to create her own life and make her own meaning and place in the world. Moving beyond being a stereotypical barbie. Almost like a teenager growing into an adult and facing the real world that is harsh and scary, and yet can be so empowering .
Barbie I think talks about one thing - power
And I believe most women are talking about that when they try to express their grievances. It’s the inability to completely control your life (without judgement or pushback). Just wanting to be cared in the same way we do for others. It’s really not about hating men, we are just begging to please not hurt our feelings anymore. It is mentally and emotionally draining.
Also- Ryan gosling was so funny. It reminded me of his dance clips from graham norton 😂 he was totally digging this role and having a blast
As a woman, the monologue was the best part for me. It really touched my soul. I, along with many other women, felt seen.
Barbie was the movie I wish I had as a kid, being feminine was always seen from the male gaze and hence got toxic. My friends and I wore pink with heels to the movie and felt empowered and that's a feeling I've never felt before, guys proudly wore pink and were there for the girls appreciating them.
I do find it interesting that jammy found the monolog by barbie to be unnecessary while not just me but also my friends were crying during that scene, for me that was the best part of the movie cause I've never seen females talk and being heard that way ever in cinema
10/10 movie.... It was so heartwarming to see children (both boys and girls) in the theater, I was wishing that I had a movie like this when I was 7 or 8 and I think that's the biggest achievement of barbie, to make women and their voice feel heard
I don't know what people were expecting from a movie based on a doll for girls. Ofcourse it was going to tackle issues related to females
I honestly thought it would go for more live action adaptation of the Barbie animated movies or something like enchanted 2006
The catch is that IRL they don’t have issues.
Watched the whole film and they couldn’t provide a single example.
They had a fictional scenario were a man slaps a women from behind (which IRL would result in immediate life imprisonment) and near the end the Mexican goes on a rant about how the biggest issue women face is that it’s impossible to be viewed as perfect by every human on earth but this is true for any individual regardless of gender or status.
Chris Hemsworth and Kim Dahyun aren’t considered perfect by everyone on earth, that doesn’t mean they’re not overall admired
Female issues can be tackled without bashing on men
I did witness a female issue once. My mother saw the trailer for “Air” and began crying. I asked why and she said she couldn’t believe they would make a movie about Michael Jordan but not her. That’s a perfect example of a female issue
@@HankWilliams-kp3iothey don't get imprisoned. People don't even get imprisoned for r*pe cases simply because they are extremely tough to prove .Forget cases related to 'smaller' things like these.
Has there ever been a female president in USA or a female CJI in India? It is not even about losing elections. No women was even chosen as a candidate for Presidency ever before 2016.No. These things are refrenced.
Although I would agree the rant of that lady was annoying.
Greta Gerwig genuinely is one of my favourite directors Lady Bird and Especially Little Women left me speechless the amount of intelligence she puts in her writing constructing a woman protagonist she always tends to make the women more human than so called writers in the market who in their commentry about patriarchal world seems too lost and caricaturist....I enjoyed Barbie not her best film but clearly a breath of fresh air if you want to make your mood happy after the disturbing experience from Nolan's masterpiece Oppenheimer
It's amazing how men complain how the movie doesn't do justice to Ken's arc, how all Kens are subservient to Barbies and live to be the love interest, how they wanna find an identity but it's hard within the constraints of society....but when throughout generations, when women have repeatedly been objectified not only throughout history of society but also in history of movies, it just shows that people are never uncomfortable about portrayal of characters unless they feel targeted. This movie is one of the most inventive satire on societal expectations, patriarchy, and self identity.
So you think men and women are equals/ the same? If so, think more.
@@dhinaggarrajahcr6318 If I thought they were equal, that means there shouldn't be a fight for equality. But as a matter of fact, it's never equal.
If anything, Barbieland is the counter mirror of an unequal society, just like real world society is unequal. They are justapoxed as such, to deliver the message that if you feel uncomfortable about the Kens role in Barbieland, then start feeling uncomfortable about the role of women in our society.
@@i.escorpiius3570 When you mean fight for equality, I believe you mean equality of outcome which is logically impossible for men and women to achieve. However, equality of opportunities should be given to all human beings despite their gender and race.
With that being said, equality of opportunities is already in place in the western society yet you feminists are fighting for "rights". I know India hasn't progressed as much as the western society but it surely is moving in that direction. I am not at all uncomfortable with Kens being side characters, I just want to know what makes you think that women are being oppressed even in the modern society now? Can you give some examples of the inequalities?
Well you've to take into account that in film industry actresses choose to get sexualized for money. If they get sexualized without consent then the director is 100% going to jail.
The problem in this movie is how they portrayed real life. As soon as Barbie gets to the real world she gets sexually harassed, give me a break. The whole messaging of the movie would have worked back in the day. There was no point in making this movie in 2023.
Main problem is how the movie doesn't even have a single good male character. This is called radical feminism.
@@dhinaggarrajahcr6318 on paper , yes , opportunities are given , but you should know west or not , there are societal implications for both genders . its not just women , but men too .
i am not only talking about women , but men too with the unequal laws on divorce n shit . socially , there are many instances where a person may get benefited or discriminated because of gender .
like for a women - many are pressured to be housewives , for men , they go through pressure to be sole providers or have to earn more than their women or else they will get to hear things .
many work places may have hostile environment which can increase because of ones gender - this can be true for both sides , not just women .
i think equality of opportunity is very important and even if we may have achieve it on paper , we still have a long way to go for it socially . [ and some laws do need to be renewed as it may be harming towards both genders ] .
prejudices will exist and will harm us one way or other . i guess , when you ask questions like , how women are oppressed in modern society , tell me - you close yourself off to any further nuanced possibility , sure india may have long way to go - but i want it to be in a rational way . its not just women but men too , its not just gender , but caste , colour , tribe - one may get advantage and disadvantage for the same reason .
like a women may feel pressured to be married , to be pure , to nurture children , to take care of in laws - leaving her studies or career .
but here a men can feel pressure to be successful , earning , provider . unemployment becomes his biggest curse .
yes , things are bettering and double income households are common . but how many phrases like ' patni ke paiso pr palta h ' , ' ldkiyo ko to ghr hi sbhalna h ' , ' saare ldko ki naukri lg gai aur yeah ' etc etc .
i have no idea what western women are fighting about , may be some social injustice, harassment , intergender violence - i have no idea .
heck , i doubt your avg person care about these , when all i see around is struggle from individuals just to have a good life for themselves among everything their background and society has to offer them - be it advantage or disadvantage .
The old woman she interacted with is the real BARBARA HANDLER, the daughter of Barbie’s creator Ruth Handler and Barbie is actually named after her.❤
wow didn't knew that! thanx!
It's not Barbara Handler. It's Ann Roth. She's the costume designer for this movie.
My favourite bad review of the film was that it’s making everyone gay and it’s LGBT Propaganda and I thought to myself: “About time.”
Lol
Folks are crazy!! 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️😂😂
What's wrong in making everyone Gay and lesbians.
These alpha beta Sigma shitheads have started all crap on internet
When you mentioned Ryan being perceived as just a pretty face, I'm guessing you meant just in India. In Hollywood, he is often acknowledged as the most accomplished stoic, deadpan(in a good way)actors of this generation.
I relate it to an Ayushman Khurana movie ... Funny movie , commercialized , with a necessary message . Of course , since it's Greta Gerwig , you get a few more layers to the story and much better writing .
I feel like people nowadays forgot to enjoy the movie and started to pick out everything politically, I mean it's a spoof movie after all😅
Can't say that there ain't politics in films, but yeah they should enjoy movies while keeping their biases aside.
No shit. People now are making movies with politics and messages instead of entertaining people, Can you blame people?
Watching Barbie & not mentioning it as a Feminine movie would be like talking about Oppenheimer & not mentioning the nuclear bomb.
Just like Oppenheimer was a masculine movie.
@@ElninojuniorOppenheimer is a biographical movie. It's anything but a 'masculine' movie. Anyone interested in Nolan's movies, science or history can enjoy the movie.
@@ElninojuniorHow is it a masculine movie. Its a biography about a man. What the hell are you 😆
I too want to see Barbie but no one is there with me to watch it😢
A lot of people also expected bizarre things from this film, such as some horrific murder mystery, whereas, if you know Greta Gerwig as a director, you would know what kind of films she makes, especially after Little Women. This is what happens when an audience goes into a film based on a trend and not for the genuine interest of watching the movie.
exactly ig the main critics are nolan fan boys and sigma males.

@@kingslayer74years95 haha lol no he's one of the best directors if I'd 1% of his creativity I would have been blessed .I'm mocking sigma Chads
Completely agree with America Ferrara's monologue being too in the face. Even in the theatre I watched it in, a lot of women / young girls did resonate with it, hooted & clapped for it but I was just going "noooooo...this is getting cringe!" Greta Gerwig managed to convey the same point in a similar monolgue in Little Women (delivered brilliantly by Saoirse Ronan) which landed way better, felt much more nuanced & empathetic.
the monologue has had opposite reaction to yours in the west, America trended because of fit. It was that good.
The marketing of this movie is more successful than own film😂😂😂
Greta Gerwig knocked it out of the park. Mother was mothering throughout and it shows.
Swiftie?
@@user-rb4lv4if9q i was about to comment this
I went for the movie on Saturday and after returning i've watched like 50 reviews online from indian as well as international creators. And all of them felt extremely polar & one sided. This is the first review that felt exact and accurate.
Jammy you've proved once again that you're the best Indian reviewer.
If anyone's uncomfortable about the way ken are treated they are basically seeing what women are going through but now that its men they are trigger .fragile egos
I haven't seen the movie but based on the comments and reviews, I can tell people are offended not because of Kens being the side characters but because of the movie's underlying woke/feminist propaganda which is far-fetched from a rational person's (neither conservative nor liberal) take on reality.
@@dhinaggarrajahcr6318 may be interpreted differently by some of the population who haven't seen but heard or seen reviews. maybe give it a try when it releases on ott and give it feedback is it really that woke bcz i hate woke feminism and this movie isnt woke by any how.
@@simrandas9027 Perhaps you are right. I shouldn't be talking about the movie without watching it in the first place. Since you are anti-woke, I am gonna take your word for watching it. (:
@@dhinaggarrajahcr6318 it talks a lot of women's experiences and patriarchy and matriarchy. If you a person whos ready to understand what the director is showing i think it's gonna be a good experience,if not i wouldn't really recommend
@@simrandas9027 Sure. Thanks for the inputs, I will watch it and convey my honest opinion here.
It is so amusing how Ryan Gosling always acts in "Literally me" characters
Every Gerwig movie has a monologue. From Frances Ha to Little Women. And they are mostly about that character's understanding of feminism. For me, America Ferrera's monologue is the highlight of the movie. It's perfect. I have never felt so seen in a movie before. It's far from any Instagram post. Every word of that monologue is somehow a reality for many women.
Something I think is important about the scope and earnings of this movie is that it shows that movies made by women and for women (not because the audience is only women, but because female characters are represented well), where the female lead earns equal pay, do have a significant market!!! So yeah...not much of an excuse to continue to show lack of depth for female characters and show less respect for women behind the scenes and in the scenes in film industries. I think that in Indian theaters, a lot of times even barring the female characterization, the show timings, and frankly the show atmosphere (lots of loud men), makes it uncomfortable for women to come to theaters. But imagine, if a few changes were made, then maybe another section of the audience could be tapped to a new level. I'm not saying it would be a perfect fix, because mindsets need to change too (and not just in India), but it's a place to start!
Margot robbie has never been a box office draw and never will be.. nor is ryan gosling.. this wasnt a hit because it was a movie made by women for the women.. barbie is one of the most popular doll character and most famous ip.. there are alot of great female lead movie with great characters written but it will not be a box office hit.. its not just bollywood any movie industry is the same.. a oscar winning movie most of the time would not have made any money at the box office...
Without the name "Barbie" nobody would have cared about it
So you are saying Men shouldn’t be loud in theatres? When SRK makes entry in Jawan, the whole theatre (mostly men) will go crazy over it. You can’t convince men to stay silent at that time. Males have more androgen and are more prone to aggression and excitement.
@@nishanthapa4401 ...erm I think the box office collections will disagree with you lmao. Where did you pull out the facts for your opinions from, my man.
i have to disagree, i think it's good if men are watching this movie and understanding what it actually talks about. yeah show timings is really bad but its a good movie
I felt that Barbie isn't even in the league of Greta's wonderful films... Lady Bird is like the most relatable film from Hollywood dealing with familes.... And little women was an almost perfect adaptation... Barbie for me felt she was too lost in the concept and social msg than the character development!.. Its really Ryan Margot who own the film...
But again this is my opinion... Been fan of Greta since lady bird !
I agree tho. In terms of delivering the theme of the storyline: Lady Bird is far superior!
We have to talk about the casting! Ryan Gosling was such a good choice for this cuz you really need a very secure male for such a character
"Its not anti men but hits home the message that everyone should have their individual identity versus having to model their life on social expectations or their partners" - Excellent analysis. I agree with the underwhelming and good aspects.
Unfortunately most people didn't get the overall message. We have to remember it is a satire and both the Barbie Land and Real World are extreme representations of polarity which is not what we need. I think it does well to deliver the message of why individuality is more important.
Also I support how at the end how they didn't just give the Kens the equal status in the councils or whatever because at the end of the day at that very moment, in that fictional world the Barbies were more qualified (by design) to hold those positions and all the Kens have just been are side characters with no "real" talents other than being the eye candys to the Barbies. Upliftment on basis of gender and not merit/talent is never a sign of a healthy society . But from now onwards it will not be "Barbie...and Ken" but "it's Barbie and it's Ken". I think this was the first step towards that balanced and independent world.
The movie definitely has a lot of flaws but just bashing it without taking a moment to think about what it really wants to say is sad for a cinema lover.
The over the top IP product promotions were really annoying, but having tolerated irrelevant non sense item number songs springing out of context in almost every other Bollywood movies in recent times has made me pretty immune I guess.
It's intriguing to me how Barbie, often criticized as a representation of the very attributes that modern feminism challenges, is being used to portray the message of female empowerment, while often depicting men as the problematic figures in society. In my view, the current fascination of Hollywood in shifting the narrative through productions like Ghostbusters 2016, She-Hulk, and Ray in Star Wars, among others, detracts significantly from audience engagement and quality filmmaking. We've seen plenty of well-developed and powerful female characters in films such as Terminator, Kill Bill, MI series and Edge of Tomorrow, which manage to avoid the caricaturisation of any gender. I believe we need more female _characters_ instead of _female_ characters
To me personally this movie says all the wrong things to women regarding men. Instead of promoting a union of man and woman which would culminate in the most stable and powerful outcome the movie portrays men as idiots when the story wants it to.The ending of this movie was laughable.. the men in Barbie land is still inconsequential and like I said instead of one side dominating the other.. the movie should have promoted fairness and equality of opportunity because after all that is what women in the real world is all trying to do. I honestly think this movie has nothing to do with a man and any self respecting man should atleast have the sense to question the storyline after the watch.
Bruh Barbie land was reflection of real world where Ken's are women and Barbies are Men.
Idk but you didn't get the movie.
People are trying to achieve equality but are we really there? The movie is not a commentary on equality we need to strive for but a commentary on how far we are from it even today
I’m so happy that I saw it in the theatre. It felt like the fever dream movie experience that I expected as a Barbie Stan.
P.S. Depression Barbie was brilliantly done.
the unanimous cheering and love for the film, really made me believe, the good old days of celebrating the big screen experience are back. What a weekend for film lovers
After the 'crush Barbie' in the Oppenheimer thumbnail I was a bit scared, but you gave a very mature and a very good review.
The movie itself didn't meet my expectations, lowkey got bored at times. But the community-viewing experience more than made up for the disappointing screenplay!
Also there was a giant stain on the screen which was really off-putting😭 (PVR Citi Mall, Mumbai).
Dude the number of horrible anecdotes I am hearing about Mumbai screenings is alarming
@@TriedRefusedProductions it really is saddening. the overall experience of movie-watching has become exorbitant and the quality is not upto the mark when you consider the price you're paying. i think it's a case of deterioration in maintenance of the theatres, visuals and audio both have really worsened.
I literally loved it, many tears and emotions genuinely one of my all time favourite movies and i will be watching several more times! But idk i wish there was more barbie
To be honest, this movie is a whole mood
They’re all talking about how Oppenheimer is great( which it is) in terms of story but never gave Barbie a chance to see it as a satire, full of characters with a lot of layers.
People getting worked up that it was not equal in the Barbieland at the end should please please watch that part again to listen to the narrator saying, "It's not going to be all well for Kens so soon. They will have to work their ways up as women have to in the real world". NOW, could they have shown equality right there? Yes. Ummm... BUT IT IS A SATIRE. THE MOVIE IS A SATIRE THAT'S there to disrupt you. It challenges you by making you uncomfortable that it is not EASY to achieve instant equality for Kens because they represent the women struggles. In that way, Kens actually represent Women, as opposed to men!
If they had shown the hunky-dory equality, you wouldn't experience the discomfort that it's still in many ways not a solved issue. Women go out of that theatre and still experience catcalling. The point is satire, a genre known for its discomfort.
THIS!!!!!!!!
Lol women can't do physical jobs .but in barbie women not shown working as labours or drainage cleaners. Typical woke film romanticing fat girls
I feel like Greta Gerwig does not get her due as a filmmaker. Yes, she is only a few films old but she clearly is so thoughtful about what she wants to say and how she says it. For those who consider themselves cinephiles I would recommend watching this interview about the films that inspired Barbie. It’s such a beautifully eclectic list.
ua-cam.com/video/s2rNnOGfmv0/v-deo.html
I think it’s a great introduction to how much of a movie lover and student of film she is. I find her fascinating and am excited to see everything she will do in the future.
This has to be the perfect week at movies with one movie based on real events which everyone wanted never to happen and second movie based on fiction which everyone wants to happen in real.
Your meme in the beginning summed up the chaos perfectly 😂
In the following years, Ryan Gosling's performance as Ken will be taught in acting classes as one of the greatest performances of all time!!!
Thank you. I'm happy you enjoyed my performance :)
And then will be shown how he was overshadowed completely by the terrific Margot Robbie
I'm sorry but barbie movie might have good intentions about their message but the way they portrayed was wrong. It came out to be anti-men, woke, sexist. I was literally enjoying the movie until the monologue came and my friend shouted 'stop complaining'. My Message to all the people is, if you want something, you have to earn it. Blaming the society and calling it patriarchal is just a p*ssy move
The moment tried and refused joined film companion anupama chopra... You can clearly see the liberal biased reviews from him... It pathetic how this channel became what it is now from what it was before...
This channel always wants to talk about politics of men and women and there's no difference in tried and refused productions and pratik border reviews other than one being left and other being right....
I’ve observed this for so long and would say again, this channel has the best community ever 😍 And this was such a balanced review, as always 👏
Couldn't be a more perfect review than this. You literally spoken my mind from start to end! The apprehension about the climax, the cohesion factor every effing thing was so accurate in my mind. Great one man!
This film was batshit crazy , but had a blast watching it .
I don’t understand how some people are saying that this movie was anti-men when they literally had Barbie admit that she was at wrong for ignoring Ken’s feelings and operating Barbie land, ignoring the Kens. Had it been another woke movie, they would’ve shown Barbie as an arrogant feminazi who never admits her mistake. And Kens are roughly supposed to be this world’s women and Barbies are supposed to this world’s men (in some context).
Oh yeah in the real world all we have to do is say sorry to women also and you wouldn’t consider the system sexist, you fucking radicalized idiots man, the system is still there to ostracize the men, if it was satire to show how it’s the same for women we would see the criticism of Barbie world also but nah it’s wholesome and a great sisterhood 😂smh
Men see through the bs.

At this point I don't even take it as an insult.
It's because it's quite okay when a woman is just a love I intrest of the hero but can't be accepted vise versa.
The probably wanted a movie where barbie is submissive to ken because that more "appropriate "
I was planning to go watch it tomorrow.... After this video I honestly can't wait.
Well played Jammy, that was quite safe... Well played...
me, a guy in his early thirties went to see this movie expecting haha and lmao scenes. but instead had a existential crisis of what is life !!!! haha
Exactly, I felt the Will Ferrell character or the Mattel headquarters premise did not fit the real world at all. Maybe the director wanted to show that Mattel and it's senior executives are as whimsical as their products.
Movie was obviously biased. They were portraying if the world is ruled by women it’ll be perfect and there will be no conflict. But in reality both men and women has to come together to make the world perfect. It was like firang version of Anupama 😂😂
That was literally not the point but if thats what you take from the movie good for you
Remember when tried and refused productions wasn't biased about politics and cared about plot? Not anymore..

What i loved about the movie was that the first sequences in the movie in barbieland was shot in way smiliar to how i played with dolls in the barbie house. And the whole kens being treated in barbieland - existing only for barbies eyes , doing only beach echoes how women are treated in some male led films where women are just eye candy, existing to look hot in skimpy clothes, have a dance sequence then fight each other for the man's attention. A male singing about his empowerment. The line about how after barbies took over govt. The narrator says ken will enjoy the same equality in barbieland as women do in politics in real life was hilarious. Youve covered most of this in your matlab kuch bhi series. The barbie movie takes the stuff women are protrayed in some movies and gave it all to ken here. I loved the monologues. The ending was wierd for me too. But i think about how they told ideas dont end. So this was probably a no ending end.
SPOILERS!!!
first half cracking. second half very mid. felt like two different people directed these. and some of the stuff did not make sense.
How do women who have lived in Barbieland in woman dominated world, get so easily convinced by patriarchy, that too, by Ken, who is not shown as anything super smart. weakest plot point IMHO.
Margot Robbie's movies always have some material to look forward to. They aren't just plain entertainment. She's smart and more so as a Producer. In my mind, she's like Anushka Sharma. Hardworking, smart, works with talented people, and sniffs out a good story.
Anushka Sharma has way better filmography than Robbie. Films like Bombay Velvet, Jab Harry Met Sejal, Sultan, Phillauri etc.
really Harry met Sejal😒

I have already watched mission impossible and Oppenheimer and now my budget for movies is over 😂. And frankly speaking Oppenheimer is a once in a lifetime movie. And the theatre experience and adrenaline rush which Mission impossible had was amazing. Will go again for these movies next month if they will be in theatres till then otherwise, september tak koi movie nahi.😅
There are no Barbie shows here. Its Oppenheimer in place where Barbie could have also got shows coz Oppenheimer is going housefull
Been watching a lot of Barbie reviews lately and all of them are completely opposite to the last one. I don't know who's right at this point😂
Tbh Barbie is full of layered jokes. If you enjoy meme culture around nihilism,existentialism,consumerism etc you will enjoy it.
Most people who hated it took dialogues at face value
I actually loved the ending because there was no specific ending. I think Greta wanted us to have our own individual endings, or maybe we don't need endings at all. Imagination is something that lives forever, and maybe Greta wanted us to imagine the different scenarios, and that is something really smart, I must say. I don't think you can really compare Barbie and Oppenheimer because they are very different from each other. And yes, I felt, for the first time I felt I was heard, my mother was heard, and every other mother and individual like me was heard. LOUD AND CLEAR. I loved Gloria's speech. I felt a kind of relief that, now I won't have to explain again and again how I feel when I am belittled as a woman. This was a great movie. And I would definitely like to see Barbie again.
US: Barbie wins
India: Oppenheimer wins
