Capris Groove Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Give it up y'all, 'cuz this is a 5/5. Whew, the most evocative and powerful animated film ever made. A breathtaking experience when I first watched it as a kid, then as a teenager, and now as an adult. The beautiful animation with its use of hand-drawn 2D really fleshes out the characters, and brings a heart to everything - culimating in the scene with the parting of the Red Sea. Speaking of characters, rather than emphasizing the religious aspects, the story chooses to ground itself with the relationship of the two brothers, and like Moses discovering his inner hero -- someone who won't tolerate cruelty or tyranny -- the film inspires the viewer to be more empathic to others as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverse Warholian Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Barbie was painfully unfunny. Wanted to like it more but it still had its highs. Set design was incredible and America Ferrara gave the best performance. 6.5/10 @Walk_Away21 @The Witch @skankle 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was mediocre at best. As I've been saying, the marketing, costuming, and Margot production department deserve a RAISE. Convincing the GP to go in drove and that Greta is some genius and this was a GOAT film I have to scream! It's no Mean Girls that's for sure.

I don't think I skulldragged, maybe gave a bit of side eye since considering your history of fire hot contrarian takes like the OJCH in your avi. @Sexyzinger 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a feminist film called Barbie, Barbie was the worst written character. It was a mess.
