Just saw this last night with my wife. I wanted to like it but it’s so packed full of feminist garbage that all I could think about was how they were using Gosling to make their shitty fem supremacy more palatable. The ending [was awful. They literally just made all the men retarded and accepting any position they could, the women took their places of power back and nothing really changed other than Barbie got a vagina and when to a clinic. I was very underwhelmed by the slow old israelite hag scene as well. It seemed to just fizzle out after Ken gave up and simped for Barbie. The quote, “once I realized the patriarchy wasn’t about horses, I lost interest.” Was the point I lost interest and realized how badly they portray men in this slanderous high budget trash. Interestingly enough, everything that mutt America bitch said was because of fellow females’ pressure rather than men.] They act like they can form friendships IRL, but I have never met a woman that doesn’t attempt to undermine their own friends and try to surround themselves with less attract women to make themselves feel better. Would not recommend.
put your time into watch Master and Commander for the 8th time instead.
it's topical hollywood trash on feminism, but at least it's sincere about it: the whole premise of the film is about fighting the patriarchy, instead of being a shoehorned implied political propaganda, and it tries its best to make an analysis on the subject, as far as hollywood trash can
also, it has a decent entertainment value, and margot and the goose are very charismatic: it's legit good by hollywood standards
> but at least it's sincere about it
This is probably the best way to phrase it for me too. I don't think it's a great movie, but once you hit the second act it clearly cares deeply about women's issues, men's issues, and how they move through the world together. That makes it more charming than it has any right to be. That and S-tier production design. Like, legitimately the best creative and fun set pieces I've seen in a long time.
I am curious how you see it having any type of care for men. The whole movie is Barbie gang attempting to gain back power so they can take the rights away from the Ken group. The point of Ken’s ascent into power was out of spite and to realize what he wanted. In the end, they don’t even show if Ken does actually get his own home, a place of some equal standard of representation. The nog bitch President gives a couple kens lower mgmt positions and they just slurp it up in this written up stupidity that Hollywood tends to use as a plot device to force characters into positions they want.
at least is not manichaeistic, infantile, black & white MEN BAD, like current hollywood
i give them credit for at least acknowledging that males have their own issues and feelings

It is infantile and masochistic. It’s shrouded in Gosling’s humor that they know couldn’t have been done with unfunny women. It’s the same hollywood deception and you’re defending it lol. Might as well be Allen.
>it’s a movie, silly
As they insert a narrated version of how life is throughout the whole film. Yeah you can’t pick and choose and still call it a fantasy when it’s literally a commentary on life and how waahmyn are oppressed. Typical feminist dishonesty.
The film is dishonest. Like everything else from these yids, they don’t expect the general public to look it up themselves. Their hear it and regurgitate the slop because they are cattle.
Everybody in the world with female clothes and/or breasts is a tranny. You can tell because those are the ones that want to look female. The only natural sex is male.
because it is apart of the Cinemaphile fad. hes good in Drive and blade runner but thats it. we love the jokes and shit but if you honestly love an actor, you need to reevaluate your life. actors are not your friends and they are not your father. they should never be put on a pedestal. because they are frauds and phonies, i would even call it psychotic tendency, its why all hollywood actors are insane democrats
i agree morbidly obese barbie was gross
now, (You) lecturing people about being attracted to cute, young, fertile woman is just as pathetic as hollywood pretending old hags are more attractive
almond eyes with positve canthal tilt and cheekbones are GOD tier. i'm not gonna judge your personal tastes, but i suspect you might be brainwashed to not finding her breed material. i, personally would make like a dozen brown kids with her
>5/10 nepotism Puerto Rican israeliteess with 50 pounds of makeup slathered on her face
Thirsty anons on Cinemaphile lust for way worse so that's to be expected, but to say she was the best part of the movie? You give the bugposters a run for their money
They really were. Goose didn't have to drag any inferior Ken's around with him like a ball and chain, so he got the lion's share of great scenes. Robbie meanwhile got fucked, having to share unreasonably excessive screen time with the frumpy brownoid mom and shrill daughter
It's not god awful or especially obnoxious, but it's all over the place. Random scenes tied together without much structure because they wanted to include them, like Barbie randomly telling that old lady she's beautiful. The correlation between Barbieland and the real world was poorly done, as was everything with the mom and daughter and Mattel. They're trying to tie into ideas of bonding and what beauty is and all that, but they get lazy and just let it all happen in a fairly stereotypical manner, as if we're supposed to already know the deal. Even just having Ferrell as the CEO harkened back to The Lego Movie.
In fact, that's the biggest flaw: we're supposed to recognize what the movie is doing without it actually doing it. When they get to the real world and Barbie is hit on relentlessly by everyone "with an undertone of violence," when Ferrera makes her "literally impossible to be a woman" speech - It's been suggested that these scenes are so ridiculous and over the top outlandish that they compare to the goofy world the Barbies live in. But uh, that's not really the case in today's hyper sensitive #MeToo society. How many people are seeing how goofy it is and how many more people are cheering it on? It may depend on your interpretation, yet at face value that's what we're being shown and told.
The strength of the movie is going to the real world and realizing a world where men have been dominant and contrasting that to the woman-dominant world of Barbieland, which is a clever idea. And it does this decently enough, there's just too much extra unnecessary fluff in the way. The barely-there mother-daughter plot, the Mattel guys who champion women but still want to put them in a box, and even Weird Barbie felt like another self-serving role and a means to an end.
So it's ok, but not great. The Barbie/Ken plot was actually really strong on its own, so it's a shame they had to shoehorn in a bunch of other voices.
every night is boys night

Aw fuck.
I don’t post on here much so I don’t know how the spoiler blockout works I guess. Sorry boys
Don't worry, not going to watch it.
tits or gtfo
I didn't mind it, enjoyed it overall. All the feminist stuff was toothless. Ken was the funniest part.

How exactly does it care about men’s issues?
Is this question in good faith or are you just looking to argue?
I am curious how you see it having any type of care for men. The whole movie is Barbie gang attempting to gain back power so they can take the rights away from the Ken group.

LOVED it
barbie 2 when?
Tell me a mutt without showing me
i think i'm in love, guys
>I have friends that are israeli
I don't get it. I thought the current CEO of Mattel IS israeli
The board of Mattel isn’t even all male. It’s like 5/11 women. The film is dishonest about the “plight of women.”
it's a movie, not real life, you silly
>it’s a movie, silly
As they insert a narrated version of how life is throughout the whole film. Yeah you can’t pick and choose and still call it a fantasy when it’s literally a commentary on life and how waahmyn are oppressed. Typical feminist dishonesty.
maybe he's his own best friend? why are you asking us?
>why are you asking us?
I don't know. It just didn't make sense to me why they don't want you to know that the company's CEO of Mattel is israeli.
The film is dishonest. Like everything else from these yids, they don’t expect the general public to look it up themselves. Their hear it and regurgitate the slop because they are cattle.
He is, but you aren't supposed to dwell on that, think about it, or acknowledge it and especially not complain about it
ohhhh no goosefags, its over.
why is Cinemaphile obsessed with this guy?
are we being raided by /hm/?
It's a self-parody that's actually done right, an extreme rarity these days.
Also the Oppenheimer crossover memes are hilarious and none of you are going to change my mind.
>guest director: Quentin Tarantino
This shit is insufferable
footfags have been eating good lately
How long until the tranny an heros?
I had trouble clocking him before Cinemaphile pointed him out, not gonna lie. He might take this movie as validating.
My gaydar went off right when that guy opened his mouth. Get better.
same, honestly
literally any straight man would enjoy watching this lol
>Tranny's face wildly contorts and splits open into that of a man when asked to exaggerate his expression for the scene
This was a mistake, especially after all that effort to try to hide he was trans
Which one is the tranny? They all look like trannies.
the one with a penis?
Everybody in the world with female clothes and/or breasts is a tranny. You can tell because those are the ones that want to look female. The only natural sex is male.
I watched it now that the HD rip is available on piracy sights. It was pretty mediocre and you can tell it was written by a woman.
because it is apart of the Cinemaphile fad. hes good in Drive and blade runner but thats it. we love the jokes and shit but if you honestly love an actor, you need to reevaluate your life. actors are not your friends and they are not your father. they should never be put on a pedestal. because they are frauds and phonies, i would even call it psychotic tendency, its why all hollywood actors are insane democrats
Boring frumpy wife and annoying little shit daughter were the worst parts, they could and should have been cut and the film would be a lot better.
cute little mutt was objectively the best part of the movie, pleb
If you have no standards, sure. I like how they hid away pregnant Barbie but not obese Barbie.
i agree morbidly obese barbie was gross
now, (You) lecturing people about being attracted to cute, young, fertile woman is just as pathetic as hollywood pretending old hags are more attractive
Young and fertile ok, but cute? Nah. Looks like every other generic halfling with dead eyes and weird ears.
almond eyes with positve canthal tilt and cheekbones are GOD tier. i'm not gonna judge your personal tastes, but i suspect you might be brainwashed to not finding her breed material. i, personally would make like a dozen brown kids with her

This place damaged you.

Gosling was the heart and soul of the movie and everyone else was fucking cancer.
I don't recall any line in Lion King with that scene where the dialog went
"See that x, it was y last year"
I only watched like 30 min of it and plan on finish it later, that was a week ago when the torrent first came out, I still haven’t finished it
the decent torrents are is from last tuesday, unless you only speak korean or are literally blind
Pretty much that whole rant could be modified to fit men as well. Almost like being a human is tough.
Suck it up buttercup, and quit bitching about the fact that society expects you to be attractive looking for people to actually be attracted to you.
the good thing about this character is that she's ugly irl, and they didn't try to sell her as attractive.
hollywood should try that more frequently
yeah, right, you fall for that shit.
don't get it. was the story there? i think margot has a cute face, and i'm under the impression most people think so
>She's so HIDEOUS
at least in the movie they don't pretend she's hot at any point, like they do with the niggresses and the whale
Because she's supposed to be the REAL woman. that why her speech is supposed to be the awesome thing ever. You're supposed to see her inner beauty
They'll probably give the Oscar to this slop
Ironically it should had been called "barbie AND KEN"
was expecting a movie more centered on the titular character
I wanted to like it but it was absolute dog shit with some Ken scenes being the sole exception
>>/hm/
seriously, what's Cinemaphile's obsession with the goose? how long have you been expecting to watch him shirtless on a musical?
It was mediocre like the Super Mario movie. What is more interesting is how completely dependent Hollywood is now on other industries.
did this film actually increase sales of Barbie dolls?
Super Mario is a very apt equivalent. both forgettable trash, both products of these times
is it digital already? bunch of qt snacks in there, couldn't care any less about the politics.
