58 on rotten tomatoes

50 on metacritic

another bomb for Disney 

they can only hope for good audience reception and some kind of longevity

Disney needs a serious creative overhaul. This is just embarrassing atp 

[poki]

Trolls 3 got 58% RT and an A on cinema score. If this gets an A- or worse, it will be really bad. 

 

That franchise already has an established audience so by default Wish is in trouble.

Bob was supposed to only have a temporary one year return in order to find a successor, but now he decided to stay for who knows how many years. One website claimed he renewed his contract to 2026. 

[Hans.]

it's a 100th-anniversary and a princess movie, they obviously want it to do good but anything below 1b is embarrassing tbh, and we know it might not even reach Elemental's numbers

no wonder they had to resort Inside Out, Toy Story and Frozen sequels

[V$.]

It's cute! 

[vale9001]

Disney should start to make movies for real people again. A great princess story has a great love story with a prince (or another princess). Love stories are great and make fables emotional, women love great love stories.

Of course you have to make a love story is modern and fresh and not "snowwhite needs to be saved by a kiss" but the archetype of a great popular story will always be the same. 

 

 

It's not anti feminist to be a woman in love with someone Seems like now they make movies for these 4 wokely extreme journalists on Twitter instead of real people- women watching movies. 

 

Barbie is a masterclass of a movie by women, about women, perfectly marketizited to women, about women stories, feelings and struggles it's also modern and fresh and political in the way a mainstream blockbuster can be. Women want this, not boring action marye sues.

This movie was not good... like at all

 

The main song was cute but Asha is just a boring character. Sucks cause Disney animation has been on a hot streak but besides the animation feeling off and an underwhelming story/characters idk.

Call back Lin this music not hitting

[Poxy]

It was cute  it felt like they wanted to prioritized celebrating 100 years of Disney and the Disney “message” about dreams coming true before anything else

[KarmaCat]

This was a great movie. I don’t get the complaints? It’s update there with Tangled and Frozen 2. The songs are AMAZING as well (minus I’m a Star).

 

Ya’ll should give this a chance

Not TMZ seeing this as scandal news-worthy, lmfao.

The performative hate-boner full on adults have over this inoffensive-at-worst film all over the Internet just because it's from Disney

 

Kinda rooting for this having an Elemental-like run, it was hilarious seeing everyone backtracking from "worst Pixar film since Cars 2!!!11!1!1" to "ah i was wrong, it's fine actually!!!1!1! :)"

[Darkgalord]

Lmao 

[FlyOnTheWall]

Just watched this with my boyfriend and it was lovely  my bf had tears in his eyes at the end. 

Glad I was right all along with the movie being inoffensive-at-worst and not deserving of the massive hate boners everyone's having over it lmao

Just saw this. It was cute! There were some great parts and then some… good parts. Nothing bad, just… there lol. I understand why this was a musical, but like I feel the musical numbers were the weakest part sans like 2 moments. I can understand why people would wait for Disney plus tho

It's slowly getting there.

To be frank, Disney only have to have 1 hit movie a year to keep afloat from a cinema perspective. Guardian's of the Galaxy is sitting comfortably in the top 5 highest-grossing films of the year, The Little Mermaid is also in the top 10, with their acquisition of 20th Century Fox they got a cut of the Avatar money that will have mostly impacted their 2023 earnings. And they're in-between a rock and a hard place. People, mainly adults who grew up with the Disney nostalgia, aren't connecting to the new movies and for some reason aren't taking their kids to see these movies in the cinema. However, I was in Disneyland Paris over the weekend and saw plenty of kids with soft toys and merch of this movie, albeit it was certainly being pushed in the shops in the park. Maybe these new stories aren't as great but what they're sitting on with Marvel, Fox, their parks etc. I don't think it necessarily matters to them if these stories don't resonate so well.

This was mew 

 

6/10

[Bencharmer]

Damn it was better than what i expected. I feel like i saw a total different movie from what the critics says.

 

The 2D/3D blend wasn't perfectly mastered yet it offered many amazing scenes to contemplate.

 

The color palette was so dream like.

 

And this BANGER :

 

 

I will see it again with pleasure.

It bombed in the US but actually did ok in Europe and Asia. Negative reviews and content online defintely hurt it big time in the US. I guess taking into consideration merchandise and streaming once it's up on Disney+ will at least prevent it from being a total disaster, unlike Strange World or Lightyear.

 

What worries me a bit, is it's February and they still haven't announced their next upcoming feature for this year, despite usually announcing sometime in mid-December of the year prior. There's definitely some heat behind the scenes because of the back-to-back underperformances of Strange World and Wish.

They really ruined the box office performances of their animated movies with their disney+ strategy during the pandemic bc this just shows the interest and demand for them is still very much there but not enough to get people into the theater instead of waiting for it to be released on D+  the hate train and mid reviews put the final nail into its coffin, at least in the US. Sucks bc now we won't get nothing but safe sequels for the unforseeable future by WDAS
