I could do without the messages of Existential Crisis and Oppressive Patriarchy. I mean, they're thought provoking and all, but the whole movie would've been stronger if it focused on Barbie's history as a female icon.
That being said, the movie itself was fun. Good acting, some funny comedy, and colorful production. And needless to say that Ryan Gosling stole the show especially with his song I'm Just Ken.

Perhaps, but I didn`t mind it. It gave the plot and the movie some gravity and depth and therefore it was deserved.

Agreed. At first I thought that Gosling was somewhat of a miscast for not being attractive enough (no offense). But he stole the show as Ken. He was truly genuinely goofy and dopey as Ken and made the character more enjoyable.
