I saw the Barbie movie today and tbh I have mixed feelings about it. It was really funny in parts I won't lie and I liked the humor but there was something so... I don't know. I think the message was nice enough but the film felt shallow?? Idk

#yes i know i went to see barbie #but honestly the trailers intrigued me i wont lie #i think the whole thing felt very shallow #like it was pro women but in a very shallow way if that makes sense? im sure someone could put it better than me #the acting and music was great and it was really funny 😭 the fucking ken music number had me laughing so hard 😭#but i think it felt a little too boy vs girl #if that makes sense #and i hate that kind of thing #i think my complex relationship with gender probably plays into it #maybe i just didnt get it #it was a decent film though but not one id rush to see again if you get me #the scene at the end (the emotional one for those who have seen the film) THAT was powerful #that had nothing to do with the feminism thing that was more like what it means to be human #and that got me i was much more invested #edit:#maybe boy vs girl isnt what im thinking of because tbh it showed how patriarchy fails both men and women #but it still felt shallow if you get me #i just can't vocalize how
