Barbie Movie Review

With a storyline that works the angle of Barbie (Margot Robbie) becoming a sentient being who begins to question the reality of her surroundings, it opens the door for some very assertive social commentary. Ideas delivered with a sly wink via an effective monologue by America Ferrera. The fully colour-saturated look is as imbued with robust ideas as those words.   //   Casting Ryan Gosling as the Ken doll works well as he is unafraid to ham it up or play the fool and ...
