#BarbieMovie #Barbie #MargotRobbie - Розваги
I saw it with my wife. My favorite joke was when Helen Mirren interrupted Barbie's crisis of not being pretty and said "margot robbie was not the correct casting to be making this point" 😂
I just want to highlight the Zach Snyder’s Justice League joke - maybe the biggest reaction from my crowd 😂
Same during my screening. This and the joke on casting MR but trying to make a certain point. 😂
haha that joke went right over my theaters head. hahaha I was literally the only laugh.
It seemed like people were scared to laugh at that one in my screening until I did involuntarily and then other people followed suit. It was my favourite joke too!
Ken watching The Godfather was out of nowhere unexpectedly good too 😂
@@tedmen1123Damn, that sucks. That joke made my theater erupt in laughter and was probably the hardest laugh they made throughout the entire movie. I was kind of shocked a lot of people understood it.
I interpreted this scene with the older woman completely different. I do not think, Barbie recognized the inner beauty of the older woman (which I find realley ageist), but she acknowledges, that you can be beautiful at any age - something that is also very problematic in our society. Older women who look old are considered ugly and not considered real women anymore, because they are considered not desirable in a men's world. So, as an older woman, this kind of felt inclusive (though I'm still waiting for a Barbie with wrinkles).
I think it’s cool that all the advice Barbie was giving Ken is great advice for women. And when the Kens don’t get 50/50 at the end, you feel the injustice of it. You feel the desire to make things equal. It’s such a thoughtful way of showing what feminists want to achieve in the real world.
Yeah I think people are missing the call to action element of that scene. It's essentially telling the audience that if they think inequality is bad in this fictional movie world, they should take some action to fix our real inequality in our real world.
How did Ken change barbie land so fast!? *KENERGY*
@@tristanmayer5373except we have reached that point in western society I mean look up the executive team for Mattel right now. The proof is in the pudding.
I like when they say “ken dolls had as much power in BarbieLand as women do in the real world”
@@masonguthrie1257 we definitely haven’t reached equality yet. Women are in a better space than the past but it’s not even close to equal. Plus right now women are actually losing rights. The movie illustrates this with ken seeing the real world and bringing patriarchy back to barbieland.
I love that in the end, Barbie tells Ken that it’s important for him to find his own identity, instead of just living in her shadow! This movie uplifts both men and women!
❤😊
Umm..that's not up lefting for me lol
So the man needed the women to guide him? Uplifting to men? Women would have a problem with being told that by a man
@@cedricroney1475 💯

One of my favorite parts is when Helen mirren, as the narrator came on and broke the fourth wall. No spoilers for those who haven't seen it yet. I thought that part was hilarious because it was what everyone in the audience was thinking!
Same haha
That got a big laugh!
That was my favorite moment in the whole movie
@ mine, too!

Mine too! 😂😂👍
I’m here for America Ferrera getting her flowers and finally getting more press post-Ugly Betty because she absolutely killed it. There was also a little bit towards the end where her husband goes “si, se puede” which is a nod to her breakout role in Disney’a Gotta Kick It Up. This movie is so smart and filled with so much love, I love it!
margot & america acting like couple in the movie maybe its my idea
I caught the Gotta Kick It Up nod too!
You found an Easter egg! Good catch! 😋
I wouldnt be surprised if she gets a best supporting actress nom ive also loved her since Ugly Betty i agree she was incredible
She was super funny on Superstore ^^
I dressed up in pink (like 50% of the theatre !) and saw the movie with my daughter this afternoon. We loved it! The theatre was packed. What a fun/ illuminating experience!
I’m a husband and “girl-dad” to two daughters but watching my daughter lean forward during that monologue about what it’s like to live as a woman really got to me. There’s a lot to learn.
"[Anger and Fear] are like the baseline of any woman just existing" -Jennifer Walters in _She-Hulk._ Important statement, I think.
Margot has taken risky roles back to back (Babylon and Barbie) and I’m glad Barbie’s working out cause she really deserves and has given us some of the best performances.. (I also loved Babylon ofc)
‘We mothers stand still so our daughters can look back to see how far they’ve come’ dropkicked me in the stomach. I was trying real hard not to ugly cry during that entire scene.
I teared up
Yep, that line got me.
The montage got me hard.
I’m so glad someone else had that same reaction. What an incredible line. I’m almost tearing up just thinking about it because it’s so true.
It was cringe and most of the people in the theatre were giggling at that over the top speech
I got so emotional watching. My friend was asking me if she should see Barbie and she said the biggest criticism she heard was that the movie is sexist against men. That pissed me off, because clearly they weren't paying attention.
I think the diversity was chef’s kiss. While stereotypical Barbie and Ken were front and center (as they should) we got quite a bit from America, Simu, Kingsley, Issa, and even Alexandra. And OMG Alexandra and the Snydercut comment had my theater cracking up today!
Wow, Oscar contender and top 3 movies of all time, based on an ideology that requires a lot of omission to get to its conclusions about the real world, that is not the real world or how history has actually unfolded.
You know the Mattel board is 50% female right?
I loved America Ferrera in this movie! Since I was a tween I've always felt she was such great representation to see on screen. I went with my husband to a 'sparkle' preview of the movie yesterday in Germany and it was packed. We both loved it and want our own Kenough shirts! The laughs seemed to have translated well to other audiences.
I’ve been a fan of hers since Gotta Kick It Up. It’s so nice to see her in such a big movie like this!
I haven't seen her in years. Superstore was great but that was many years ago, so happy to see her back and steals the show. Yeah her feminist dialogue can be a little bit preachy but god damn she was great
I love Weird Barbie's quote above, "The movie is the opposite of 1960s America, which is WHEN Barbie was introduced in America by the way...IN 1959!" Grace is obviously not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
I'm just Ken sequence blew my away. I hope Ryan gets to perform it at thr Oscars.
I live in Brazil and just came home from a 'Barbie' screening. SOLD OUT. Packed screening. People laughed and got emotional at the end. Strong contender to be the movie of the year for sure. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Here in my city EVERBODY was in pink in the mall, even the dogs
@@caioquicoli9389YEEES! I watched at the cinema at the mall and... Looooots of people in pink as well. Wild. 🤭💗
Same in Perú!!!
Brazilian too yeaaah the movie screening that I went it was wonderful and that's barbie magic
Lol Cringe brazil no wonder a 3º world country
The Margot Robbie joke was HILARIOUS
the one from the narrator? gold
one of my fave moments in the movie! lol.
I guess the point was to make a joke. I was thinking makeup would have had to work hard on Margot Robbie, just like they had to to make Charlize Theron (her co-star in _Bombshell)_ unattractive in _Monster._
People fail to understand that being the antagonist and being the villain is different. The antagonist challenges the protagonists beliefs. Ken is the antagonist, doesn’t mean he's the villain.
Apparently, the lady at the bus stop is Barbara Handler. I went to see the movie again the day after because I also felt that there was a lot to take in and that I didn't want to miss anything. So many layers!
Honestly Barbara slayed when Barbie told her she was beautiful and she said I know I am I was rolling because 1. It was unexpected 2. I wanted to be her just for that line
I wondered if that was the case
I believe that's correct, I read it was ruth's daughter and it was named after her so that checks out.
Correction: The lady at the bus stop is, in fact, Ann Roth, an Oscar-winning costume designer. My bad.
That scene teared me up. It was a beautiful moment.
“Ken is a girls toy” thank you for saying that
But how do girls play with him? They were talking about some girls would rather borrow G.I. Joe to play "Barbies." He sounds like the male friend of Barbie that's "acceptable" to parents, rather than a guy on a motorcycle or soldier.
Any watchers of secret invasion did y’all notice Kingsley Ben-Adir in this movie, couldn’t help but imagine “Gravik” dancing around in the finale of secret invasion 🤣
i watched episode 5 in the morning before I saw it so 'twas a little whiplash haha
😂😂 same here
He was also the cop in Noelle with Anna Kendrick
Just saw this yesterday, and WOW what an amazing experience! I found myself tearing up at America Ferrera's Big Speech, and I believe many of the performances will definitely become iconic cultural references for many years to come!
She also deserves Oscar Nod
The opening nod to Kubrick was awesome. And then again with the line “Are you guys ‘shining’ right now?” Loved this movie
When I first saw the Jack Nicholson movie, I didn't get what "shining" meant, though I think the character that shows up just to get killed (and provide a way out) explained it.
this movie is like animal farm with dolls mix with truman show ending and i loved it
yesss the ending reminded me so much of the truman show. i loved it so much
"The Barbie who's been played with too hard."
saw the movie tonight, words cant express how much it moved me! movie of the damn decade
Thanks for explaining this, Grace. I walked out of the theatre rather confused about the message of the film, but your breakdown and explanation helped me see the more nuanced elements that I missed. Great review!
I went with my 2 months old daughter to this movie. It feels very momentous to me. Especially when we went to a “mum and Bub” showing, so everyone watching can definitely relate. Also I think the ob/gyn ending is because barbie becomes a human-dolls don’t have genitals.
I watched it last night in Century City, so the audience laughed when Century Coty was mentioned a couple of times in the movie. It felt so meta. The mall I watched the movie where a Cafe had a Barbie themed menu and it was packed when we had dinner before the show with people dressed in pink. Then in the movie theatre, at least 40 percent of the movie watchers wore pink. It was just such a delightful experience. It made watching movies at a theatre so wonderful!
This is a very well put together video essay that dives deep on the themes and technical aspects of the movie; thank you and well done Grace!
all boys can be barbie too! barbie meant so much to me as a little boy and this movie opened my eyes to how much i looked up to her as a child. i saw myself in barbie even as a little boy everything she represented for little girls she represented for me too. don’t forget about all the little gay boys!!
Curious what Ken meant to you; "just friends" like how Barbie felt about him?
@@sandal_thong8631 i never had a ken, it was always about barbie for me. i loved her femininity.
I laughed when ken becomes the CEO of patriarchy haha
😂😂😂
I like how Ken's *Kenergy* shines through as nobody else has such tenacious effort to make Kendom happen! Watching that reminded me of "Roe vs Wade"!
I forgot how much better the movie viewing experience is without knowing everything before i see the movie, i only saw the traliers and had a blast.
Every girl in my showinga had a standing ovation and started snapping 😂
I have seen multiple men and women say this movie hates men... And I am like.... Did you see some completely different movie??? They even say that all men are shown to be villains....but no... no man was described as villain. Movie shoes that both men and women have their own problems, weaknesses, strengths etc.
Great review and so well put! (Finally saw it tonight and I'm so in love! And my whole theater applauded after the monologue! All decked out in pink even on week 2!)
So why didn't Kens get equal rights in Barbieland in the end though?
because it’s done intentionally to trigger people to ask what you are asking, by you admitting that women indeed don’t get equal rights in real life which is clearly more important than a Barbie movie.
@@theyanglight How do you know the writers intention?
Because the narrator literally says "the kens will not reach equality, but gain as much power as women have in the real world"
If this ending feels unfair then maybe question why it feels fair that women should live with this power imbalance every day of our world?
@@meredithsanderson6808 What rights do men have that women don't in our world today?
@@ChairyCrasher Depends on the country obviously but here in the west? None.
I just got back from seeing it with my sister, and we both loved it! Favorite Greta Gerwig film. My sister and a few people in the audience clapped in America Ferrara speech. I agree it's a strong awards contender for the Oscar's.
Someone in my audience yelled “amen!” I was like “for real!!” The speech was so good!
@aliciagerman3597 My sister was like, "Preach!" every moment during the speech.
Oooh i wanted to cheer several times during the movie! But I sat in such a boring crowd people don't do that here😢
Did Barbie and Ken end up together or do they kiss?
@@marianagomez3833 not at all, it's not a loveydovey movie
THANKS for this as always, Grace! So BarbieLand is Lake Wobegon, huh? LOL! For many reasons I wanted--nay, *needed*--to hear your spoiler review!!! You are always my first!!!
I love that you enjoyed this movie so much because I remember when the second trailer came out, you said it didn't look good and was not going to do well. You questioned the purpose of the movie. I loved the movie, btw. Definitely one of my favorite movies of the year.
Ryan Gosling and Kate McKinnon were amazing!!
I LIT UP when I saw they had a trans actress playing one of the Barbies. As a black trans woman finding positive representation can be hard on either front, but this film knocked it out of the park. America Ferrera's monologue really got to me because the entire time I had a pit in my stomach saying "this is what you are signing up for, can you handle that?"
This is such a thoughtful unpacking of an important and smart movie. I cant believe that is how I am describing a Barbie movie. Greta Gerwig is incredible. My son and I loved every minute. He danced in the aisles!
Just got out of a showinmg in Times Sq, so many people wearing pink and doing the photo ops! The movie was wonderful and everyone was laughing out loud throughout the entire film. I would definitely see it again in theaters!
This movie was fantastic easy 9/10. Does a good job at navigating both the pros and cons of taking feminism to extreme and showing the reactionary extremism that can come from it. Very good thought provoking.
Just saw the movie and didn't know what to think at first, need to see it again but it was nevertheless very entertaining I was smiling throughout. Agree Ken should get a second movie. Loved Ryan Gosling in this! Ken needs a movie where he learns who he is without Barbie. But Barbie should also play a major role in this!
Watching this video, I was thinking Ken's like the "acceptable" boyfriend to the girl's parents, and not the "dangerous" guy that excited her and taught her to drive to evade the police, before she settled down with a stable man.
OH!! The merch this movie can continue to capitalize on will be even BIGGER!! I loved the classy dresses and swimsuits Barbie wore. I loved that "I AM KENOUGH" shirt that Ken wore! "SUBLIME!!!" 😂😂😂❤❤❤
This is the best review I've seen on this film. Thank you Grace for helping me understand it better.
Grace what an analysis of many things. THANKS A LOT!!!
I actually thought it was too on the nose. I wanted it to be campier. I felt like something was missing. I wanted moreeee
the final joke had me deceased
I teared up in many scenes in this movie. I love how it touches on being human and being man in a society and what Barbie means for each girl 😊
It was a lovely movie! Funny but still had meaning! ❤
@@treblelatrice926 My review of _Women Talking:_ It had something to say.
This was the best and funniest movie I saw so far this year. It was so fun and Ken in both Barbie and Toy Story 3 is now one of my new favorite character in fiction. 🤗🤗
Incredible review, incredible film, thank you Grace, thank you Greta, thank you Margot
saw it opening night and yes the women all clapped after the monologue it was so nice
Ken meets He-man would be hilarious 😂
I was joking that it should have an end-credit scene mirroring transformers, with Ken in an interview with the guy from G.I. Joe, but it's a different company. I did read that Mattel does He-Man and She-Ra and thought Barbie meeting them could be a more-likely possibility of band-crossover.
If they decide to make a Ken spin-off, i would love to see Crazy Stupid Love Directors Glenn Ficarra & John Requa to Direct the spin-off!
Finally saw Barbie last night. Enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. Done really well 👏🏼 👏🏼
I saw the movie at the Century City AMC, and the crowd went nuts when Ken said the Century City line.
such an amazing review
I really appreciate you making this video because a lot of your thoughts about it were also mine going into this movie, I was shocked going on to UA-cam and seeing reviews complain that it was misandrist, that it was anti-men, that it was anti-mom - which I didn't feel the movie was trying to portray at all.
I’d love a sweatshirt saying “I’ve had Kenough!” LOL
10/10; a great movie! Moved me to tears a few times and LOL in others. Margot and Ryan were great.
girll whats ur hair products. it looks amazing than ever
There was no applause during my screening, not for any monologue or the end.
I enjoyed the film a lot, but I’m just stating how people reacted.
The biggest applause was for
1) the comment on how MR isn’t the best casting choice to make a certain point.
2) the comment on DC fandom (in a WB movie)
3) Ken’s sweatshirt
I love this review and breakdown I think its a perfect explanation about what this film is really about.
Just saw the movie, and pre-ordered the "I'm Kenough" hoodie. 🤣
Lets be honest, the kens stole the show, Ryan Gosling killed it
While the movie does posit Barbieland as the opposite of the Real World, the dynamic is not quite true because while the Kens are dismissed, they are never brutalized or violated in Barbieland, and the opposite is very much not true of Real World.
Granted I know the dark dangers are not gonna be explored too much in a Barbie movie, but just something to keep in mind when building the opposite worlds idea.
I was head of security at the CAA building , we loved calling it the Deathstar
Haha that's awesome - thanks for sharing!
Regarding Rhea Perlman, as a Jewish woman myself it was wonderful and refreshing to finally see a Jewish woman being portrayed by a Jewish actress.
Seen it yesterday with my sister and we laughed all the way through. Good jokes and soundtrack
I’m so happy that you mentioned Kingsley. I kept being pulled to him whenever he was on screen.
Great review, Grace.
Omg I just loved it!!!!! What a great movie xxxx
I think it's hard, this is very rare. And this is all Greta and her husband, they will never agree to write for this caracthers for 20 years. Maybe some others writhers/directors, but then the quality will be lost. Like Snyderverse and after....
Michael Cera as Allan was Wonderful too! Can't imagine anyone else in thay role
"Men and women are still not equal to this day" Sometimes I feel like these people are leaving in a totally different world than mine. In my last 20 years as an employee, MOST of my bosses have all been women; heck, at this exact moment, I have a total of 5 women above me in the chain of command in my workplace (my Direct supervisor, Senior supervisor, Floor Manager, Project Manager and General Manager).
The references to films America has done in the past were so funny, I’m not sure if people got them. My theater was pretty dead with their reactions so all we got were some laughs but the water works definitely flowed!! Loved the movie, I think I’d need to see it again to appreciate it more
Barbie was excellent. I loved it. So much depth. It's Pro Men and Women. A wonderful story about self-realization and growing up told from the feminine perspective. Great humor and fantastic visuals. The best performance in Gosling's career. No scene or performance is wasted. Margot is a movie a star. This has to be a Best Picture Contender once award season kicks off.
I genuinely did not expect Barbie to be THAT FUNNY. My theatre cracked up at all the jokes and we never once had a reason to laugh AT the movie. Regarding the ending, I personally still would’ve stayed in Barbieland. Then again, I’d be a ken 😂
Listening to Grace, I was reminded of _Pleasantville_ where the sister played by Reese Witherspoon chooses to stay in that TV land but does go to college there. Perhaps she didn't feel knowledgeable enough to do it in the real world?
Saw the movie with my friend yesterday. Never had such a good cinematic experience (other than watching parasite) ❤ greta really directed barbie perfectly. I do hope it gets all the award it will be getting.
I want to see a Ken and Alan bro-mantic comedy. Gosling and Cera were the best performances in the movie.
Saw it today and OMG it was amazing!!!
Loved the movie, lots of tears and laughs
The irony is it was a woman who came up with the ideology and the pressure of being a stereotypical Barbie/woman
yes: a ken / gi joe cross over spin off as hard hitting as platoon would make my 2024
Fire man = fire women
Bricklayer women
Military all women
Only fans equal pay
Women go to war
Women loves guns , fight
More women in jail
We need equal pay and everything, Barbie is about this . Barbie is not feminist.
Missed opportunity on the whisper scene. Could have done a telephone miscommunication game gag
I did not expect that line at the end.
Surprised my friend saw coming a mile. But Maybe because she’s a Barbie too.
this movie was like watching back to back reels/tiktoks.
One of the best movie reviews I have seen in a long time.
YAAAAS ❤ THX GRACE 🥰
Grace, what did you think about the scene where the narrator broke the 4th wall? Personally, I loved it
Not even a MENTION of Michael Cera?
SO MUCH to love about this movie! Very funny, social commentary, subtext up the wazoo, fantastic performances, set design, music. It HAS to get an Oscar nomination for production design. And America Ferrara's monolog is simply FANTASTIC.
I'm going to save this for later
I should say... Both Oppenheimer and Barbie are really important to be seen so that we become a better society
