Arcadius Posted July 23, 2023 Posted July 23, 2023 As much as I loved this film, I really hope there aren't any sequels or spin-offs. This movie was perfect as just a one off. If anything studios should be smart enough to realize lightning probably won't strike twice and just try to create other stories with great marketing that can put butts in seats.ย

Ryan ate tho so. I just don't want to hear "u all missed the point by praising Ken and not the barbies!!!" as if it isn't the directors fault. Ryan even got 2 songs in the movie Margot got nothing.

Maybe because Ryan had a musical background while Margot is not?

Barbie (2023) was a great commentary on the doll, its history and its place in the (patriarchal) world. I think it would be interesting to see another retrospective after some time has passed!
John Slayne Posted July 23, 2023 Posted July 23, 2023 as much as I enjoyed Ryan Gosling's performance as Ken, I think he was heavily aided by good writing and direction. the role was not particularly challenging as far as acting goes. Simu Liu actually ate him up during the dance sequence. ย Margot had a lot harder role to play and did amazing, which is a lot more impressive to me. Barbie actually had to display emotional range.ย 1
cruelhprince Posted July 23, 2023 Posted July 23, 2023 I'll be so ******* happy if this makes a billion
DeepEnd Posted July 23, 2023 Posted July 23, 2023 I was SO hyped for this movie but didn't love it as much as I'd hope I would. Too much Ken for my liking. 1
Enrique523 Posted July 23, 2023 Posted July 23, 2023 So now people are trying to say that Ken is the only reason the movie is good and Margot is nothing? Some of you are such an embarrassment i swearย 3
Kylizzle Posted July 23, 2023 Posted July 23, 2023 Ryan and Margot were both great. But in terms of performance I think Margot was given more moments to be nuanced and vulnerable. I felt what she was feeling in the little moments like with the old woman on the bench and the scene near the end with Ruth. 3

Lovett Posted July 23, 2023 Posted July 23, 2023 Margot was outstanding in this film and anyone trying to insinuate otherwise is straight up lying. 1 5
