Heartwarming Barbie Movie review | Time: “but not very deep”

Are you agreeing with what the BBC said: Life in plastic is mostly fantastic, according to many critics, who have broadly praised the Barbie movie?

The Barbie movie is a kind of movie that makes you cry, laugh, live free and think you can set your dreams like her, etc.

The highly anticipated film, starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, will be released this Friday, opposite Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer.

Barbie was regarded as "painfully funny" by Empire, and "joyous from minute to minute" by the Independent.

However, the Daily Mail described it as "uneven and disjointed," while Time described it as "very pretty but not very deep."

Barbie Movie review by Clarisse Loughrey from Independent

Barbie is one of the inventive and immaculately crafted

"Barbie is one of the most inventive, immaculately crafted, and surprising mainstream films in recent memory - a testament to what can be achieved within even the deepest bowels of capitalism.

"While it's impossible for any studio film to be truly subversive, especially when consumer culture has caught on to the idea that self-awareness is good for business, Barbie gets away with far more than you'd think was possible."

Therefore, watching this movie is like welcoming Greta Gerwig's fiercely funny, feminist Dreamhouse. She has a keen sense of direction and attention to detail. In the recent interview with Margot Robbie, check out this interview about revealing the style of direction by Greta Gerwing

Barbie Movie is from well-known Greta Gerwig, A Oscar Nominated director

What is the conclusion? Never distrust Greta Gerwig. The Oscar winner has created a strong, humorous, and deeply feminist journey that dares you to laugh and cry even if you're made of plastic.

I love writing as I get to create something beautiful and touch others with my words in the process. I love the fact that I can create a whole new world, something no one else has ever seen. Writing helps me to escape reality and create new realities. At times, I also write stuff in those stories that I can never muster the courage to say in real life. It's my safe space. I can write whatever I am feeling and I can let it all out. It's also very therapeutic to me..
