To live in Barbie Land is to be a perfect being in a perfect place. Unless you have a full-on existential crisis. Or you’re a Ken. Barbie suffers a crisis that leads her to question her world and her existence.
American fantasy comedy film directed by Greta Gerwig from a screenplay she wrote with Noah Baumbach. Based on the eponymous fashion dolls by Mattel, it is the first live-action Barbie film after numerous computer-animated films and specials.
The film stars Margot Robbie as the title character and Ryan Gosling as Ken and follows the pair on a journey of self-discovery following an existential crisis.
The supporting cast includes America Ferrera, Kate McKinnon, Issa Rae, Rhea Perlman, and Will Ferrell.
Reviews:
One of the best films of the year in cinematographic terms, probably the best comedy that we have seen in a long time, and an extraordinarily entertaining product that promotes the value of searching for a more cohesive society
In a world where blockbuster films are surrounded by digital landscapes, Barbie’s devotion to practical production is outstanding.
Barbie is a dazzling new instant classic and unlike anything you’ve seen before. It’s the perfect summer movie and one of the funniest of the year.
The film’s boldness and, frankly, weirdness, allows Barbie to become a successful sum of its parts. It’s a film that clearly has something to say and doesn’t want audiences to get caught up in the fact that it’s a doll at the centre of it.
When I became a father I searched for movies that would show my daughter positive role models, and it was tough going. Barbie makes up for lost time and should warm the hearts of parents and daughters alike.
Barbie isn’t as streamlined as my favourite girl comedies, but it’s more thematically ambitious than many of them too. And I’ll take flawed ambition over plastic perfection any day of the week.
