Barbie absolutely BROKE the Shapiro family.......and I'm here for it. LOL.
❤😂❤
I love it, Ben is getting dragged 😂😂😂😂
Nobody is broken by a generic feminist move that attaches itself to a children's toy brand . The fact that a bunch of grown ass women are acting like this kid's movie is some kind of victory is sad.
@@wudly9195well it broke you at least 😂😂
@@sarahzaidi1625 responding to a comment isnt “broke “ . I guess you are broke too ??
Abby this movie wasn’t meant for little kids… it’s PG-13…
Cry more
You realize 13 year olds are kids right?
@@primeballer1329 whos the one whose brother made a video bitching and burning barbie dolls while she made a video about a movie she didnt want to see and even filmed herself complaining about it in the parking lot
@@xxac3zn8zxx87 key word “little kids”
@@xxac3zn8zxx87yeah and this movie is totally fine for most teenage kids, that's for sure
Its rated pg13 for a reason Abigail. Anybody who takes young children and gets upset just isn't paying attention
@@Dream-Eternal87 First of all, the revenue speaks for itself. That's why the businessmen budged.
Second of all, writers budged because the theme of this movie had a story that needed telling, target audience be damned. A movie that gets people to reflect this much on the human condition is what makes movies great.
If you want a barbie movie to take your kids to, then rent Barbie the Pearl Princess from your local library.
Oh Rachel, sooooo many movies are PG 13 and are for kids. That's honestly the most pathetic attempt at deflection I've ever read.
Cus a 13 year old isn’t a child?
The previews were VERY misleading.
@@hashtagfilm so I guess films like The Ring, Insidious, Ouija Orgin of Evil, The Bourne Identity to name a few which are PG-13 must be for kids. A PG -13 is a warning and people can't just assume that if one PG-13 film is lighter then all the rest must be. Then it is completely on the parents for not doing their research. Same with an R rating films like Annabelle and The Wolf of Wall Street are both R rated but one is clearly more severe then the other in terms of content even though they have the same rating. Not to mention if those parents actually paid attention to those first two Barbie trailers you would quickly realize its not for kids. The first trailer parodies Stanley Kubrick's 1968 film 2001 A Space Odyssey which no kid would get and the following trailer has tons of sexual innuendos.
I loved it. Barbie was a huge part of my childhood. Got my first Barbie on my 7th birthday in 1959. This movie was such a trip down memory lane. I spent so many hours as a child making furniture, sewing curtains, sewing clothes, setting up a church and dressing all the dolls up on Sunday, preaching a little sermon to them, "teaching" them in "school". I had the dream kitchen and I created alternative Barbieland that was remarkably similar to the one in the movie. Oh, and I still have my original and several dozen more.
❤
Hahahaha, pathetic, this movie was a pink mess, misandrist, propaganda movie which was made with only one objective in mind: to mock, belittle and ridicule men as much as possible and to indoctrinate little girls into hating all men.
I love how conservatives have no media literacy to the point that they take a satirical movie completely seriously
Abby doesn’t realize that not everyone had Ken dolls growing up. Not everyone has rich parents they continue to mooch off of into adulthood. No one I know had Ken because we didn’t have an endless amount of resources to buy toys. We all had Barbies, and not many of them.
you don’t need rich parents to mooch off to own dolls.💀
@@anastasia.noelle last I checked you needed money to buy dolls. Not everyone has endless money. Abby is very out of touch because she has her lifestyle funded by her family.
Its the fact that even the comments don't support her lol
Fr 💀
Lmao love how Abby and Ben sh*t their pants over Barbie Land having no children and Kens having no rights. IT'S AN IMAGINARY LOCATION that is just representing how most of us played with Barbies as kids! I did not own any Ken dolls, and if I did, they wouldn't have had much significance. And I'm pretty sure there weren't many baby Barbie dolls. But I guess I was just a woke, man-hating, anti-family 6-year-old by not pretending my dolls were housewives 😂😂
I mean I used to literally rip the heads off my ken dolls and throw them out the window when I was little lmao
@orion_aethena7076 that's amazing 🤣🤣 see? I think the Ken dolls had it good in the movie lol
@@orion_aethena7076icon behavior 😂
What a load of malarkey, you're talking nonsense, the Barbie movie was designed for one purpose: to belittle men as much as humanely possible.
I don’t think you understand what Barbie is. Barbie is supposed to be EVERYTHING, that’s what the doll is about. That’s why in Barbieland the Barbie’s are well, everything. And Ken is just ken, he goes with Barbie. It’s not really woke it’s just what Barbie is
"everything"
Except a mom.
@@ShockgueyThey had Midge and not everyone wants to be a mom lol
@@artiemcully2038 "they made fun of Midge"
There, I fixed it for you.
"not everyone wants to be a mom"
Incorrect. Literally every woman does because human beings are animals with millions of years of biological evolution. You are repressing it just as much as a priest is repressing his urge to procreate. The only difference is the priest admits that's what he's doing.
@@Shockguey A woman tells you she doesn't want to be a mom and you accuse her of repressing it? That's actually insane, completely unhinged, and vile to me.
@@artiemcully2038 Literally yes. You're denying the very thing that makes you a woman. Your body reminds you of it every month.
If you meant what you said you would get your womb removed just like those Redpill guys get vasectomies.
Nah, Barbie and Ken DO have the same plot. So does the mother from the real world. At the end of the movie they realize that they don't have to feel bad for existing in a world that isn't perfect or being in a place where they aren't perfect. There's literally nothing special about "stereotypical barbie" or "beach ken", but now they don't need to have permission to exist. They dont have to be defined by the outside world or material things or achievements or other people. They can just be. Not even to be "whatever they want to be". They can just be. And that's just as okay as anything else. The real world not being perfect is exactly why Barbie decides to live in the real world, because she doesn't need to be anything of note to make a difference or live a good life, and that's just the best place to do it.
Also if you want to know what the heck writers are doing localscriptman is a really funny RUclipsr that breaks writing down in only a few minutes
Solid review thank you
@seagullspit6048 pretty good review you did. 👍
This comment is good and deserves more likes.
I love you
Abby wouldn't even be allowed to have a youtube channel today if it wasn't for the feminists of the past.
Gaslighting detected
I'm struggling to find the point of this comment lol
"You wouldnt be here to comment if youtube wasnt created"
like, yes genius, thats how that works
You should read some history before you talk. Women were allowed to and did do plenty of things. The hiragana characters in Japanese were literally created by women for women, for example. Not to mention that there were plenty of women who didn't want to be mothers and entered convents who then dedicated their lives to intellectual or humanitarian pursuits.
Made a fake anonymous account for that comment huh? I wonder what that says about it’s context 👍🏻
@@haridaspalleeri6765the point is her hypocrisy. She wants to benefit off of what feminists have done for women while also insulting them and going against the movement
Abby this is literally not a movie for kids
It's a... Barbie movie. The doll that little girls aka kids, play with.
Correct!
It was marketed as a movie for everybody. Now that people have actually seen it, it's become apparent it's not for kids (or men). The problem is people already took their children, girlfriends, and wives to see it. The damage has already been done.
@@malcador Damage?
@@kc-lz8gs The messaging in this movie was incredibly toxic and damaging. The theater I went to was like 80% women under 21, half of which were preteen or below. It made $350m. The damage was done.
Everyone needs to stop trying to be a RUclipsr.
tell me about it
Brother you have 1.86 million subs and still use a crappy green-screen for rage-bait videos about Current Event. The irony of you saying that.
@@petertimowreef9085 the google gameification of content is creating a ugly RUclips
She’s well-spoken and her material is thoughtful and well-written. She also knows how to deliver it. Perhaps you should take notes, instead of banking everything on rage porn.
@@BobHooker Aye, it's not that bad when your on your own account but recent anti ad-block actions by youtube made me browse the website while not logged in and... Holy shit. The level of clickbait bullshit diarrhea content being pushed is nauseating.
The theater I saw Barbie in was filled with teenage boys, I kid you not. They love it and apparently some see it as a cult following for them the way my little ponies (bronies) was. I personally liked the movie and watching it with a big group.
Yep I'm a guy and loved it. Also saw many other guys there. Some even husbands with their wives. It was heartwarming
Wtf am I reading.💀🤦🤦🤦🤦
Wtf.🤦🤦🤦
“Sis ya gotta make a video saying you hated Barbie! The whole world is laughing at me!”
it's wet ass p word part two haha she did the same thing then
As if it made a difference
:) !! ;)
I absolutely loved this movie ❤😂 ❤ it was satire at its finest and basically the theme throughout was how women try to so hard to conform to a patriarchal society when it is basically impossible. It was goofy and outrageous and downright hilarious. I expected to be entertained and I got that and it even had some depth at the same time. Not everyone's cup of tea I guess, but I thought it was fantastic. It's not a kid's movie. I don't think small children would understand the plot.
😅 I think people will miss the last comment because they've never seen stuff like Robot Chicken or other childhood media centric satires...that are pg 13
It's accidental satire. It's THE ROOM of feminism.
Plus the theme of "patriarchy being bad for men, too" was great
@@MegaMilenchethere's NO way you watched it if that's what you think lol
@@InaneBlatherPodcast There is no way I could be my own person, with my own thoughts and opinions which may or may not differ from yours? Is there a law that says I must find Barbie movie to be funny/smart/well made?
*_considering it still smashing records today I think it's fair to say that most people love the movie_* seeth tho
Or it means that it had great marketing.
Im pretty right wing. Its a good movie.
So did the Force Awakens and that was total shit
@@haronsmith8974 Nah it's not.
@@poocrayon4588oh the cope
13:52 How twisted is Abby’s mindset, if that’s what she took from that moment in the movie? It wasn’t an attack on motherhood; it was a celebration of all the sacrifices, hard work & turmoil mothers go through out of love for their children.
Everything in the speech can be just as equally applied to men. That's how broad the speech was.
I don't know where you got that it was specifically meant for mothers.
@@Shockguey Exactly
You know republicans always look for a negative
If you surround yourself with faith, family, and community, you put yourself in a box that is just as isolating and naive as barbieland. 🤦♀️ You can't see the greater whole in your box. But yes, the real world out there has these issues. I encounter it all the time in the workplace. I honestly think she missed the entire point of this film. 🤷♀️
@amandamorse2392 the femininity segment was truly something. "You have to basically be a subservient housewife and breeding machine to a domineering husband to be truly feminine!"
Ah yes being a trophy wife is so fulfilling... which is why childfree women viscerally upset or frighten... or when nonmarried women make ya seethe 😂
This literally isnt a kids movie though
Tons of moms were taking their daughters to it. I agree its not wise, but that's what was happening. The general public is treating it like a kids movie even though its not. That's why she's treating it that way.
@@LizzyTwifehomemaker It isn't a kids movie, but no reason a kid can't watch it
You cannot market a literal Barbie movie & say it’s not for kids. Barbie is literally children targeted??? Margot Robbie even said it was for everyone to watch.
@@OodieSoodie You can, it isn't a kids movie, but no reason kids can't watch it..
@@rhamlet5290 Okay, that’s not how that works & both of those things can’t be true at once. Either it’s a movie for kids (even tho Margot Robbie herself said it was for everyone) or it’s not and kids can’t watch it…?
Say you don't understand what patriarchy is without saying you don't understand what patriarchy is.
Abby, we all saw you wearing pink to go watch it still.
She went to watch it to tell ppl who haven’t watched it how it felt like
@@yehhhhhh234 Which means she must wear pink? LOL
What’s wrong with pink?
@@Truth_is_Here1 nothing, but wearing pink to it would indicate youre excited for it and are partaking in a trend that is actively promoting the movie and encouraging it, something Abby claims to not want to do
I wore pink too because I was expecting a different story line from what it really was, and still walked out from the movie theater dissapointed for the wasted 2hrs of our lives and the moneybwe spent!
Lol at "if you are beautiful to your husband, you are beautiful". Completely shows that Abby veiws her self beauty through a male lens.
And noo there's nothing wrong with looking good for your partner, i love looking cute for my partner, but MY opinion for what looks good and what i like for MYSELF comes first. Women don't dress and get ready for men👎👎
I interpreted her line differently. “If you are beautiful to your husband, you are beautiful” - meant to me your beauty shines when you are kind to your loved one.
@@riddlesangerissues3127and if everyone thinks you're ugly then what??? beauty is not dependant on what people from the outside see. thats a point made in the movie. you are enough as you are.
Who hurt you diddums?
They dress and get ready for other women....
Women: "We don't dress and get ready for men."
Also women: "We are oppressed by men because they force us to spend hours infront of the mirror to look nice for them."
Also also women: "You have to pay for the date because I spent hours getting ready for you."
I like how Barbie is bad for children but pushing religion on them is not.
While this movie did lose me at times, she’s kinda telling on herself by saying the men have nothing to do in Barbie land and a few other points. Almost like she didn’t watch jt fr. I think she’s just pandering to her audience which, can’t be mad at, trying to get those views.
agreed but I don't agree with either side
Parental authority or authority of the state? Choose.
Pushing religion on your own kids versus Hollywood and the government pushing political religion on other people's kids.
or taking them to the BS of Sound of Freedom where you expose them to lurid child sex
The movie isn't woke. Woke is a way of saying subversively political, ie writers looking for social brownie points. Barbie is OVERTLY political. It addresses the issues it presents head on without any kind of obfuscation. Barbie isn't woke, it's left, and non apologetic about it. It doesn't hide what it is, and it's a better film for it.
It obviously means certain kinds of people can't stomach it. And that's ok. But it doesn't make it bad at all.
The criticism of the incredibly in-depth work on the set of Barbieland confuses the hell out of me. Nobody else shares this opinion; how good the practical effects are is one of the most talked about aspects of the film.
Say you don't understand what good filmmaking without saying you don't know what good filmmaking is.
You mean theres a movie where both Ben And Abby are upset? I gotta see it now
Please do it’s pretty good
How neurotic are you
So far, Barbie has become the 7th most popular movie of all time, per box office receipts. The whole world pretty much loves this movie -- except the haters. Haters gotta hate . . .

Here’s a thought!!! Why don’t you just have your kids consume only Christian content? There’s plenty out there and you’ll be falling in line with your views. Or do you recognize, that’s not going to give you views?!?
Did she genuinely believe this was a movie for children? It's rated PG-13 and is largely a satirical piece mocking barbie stereotypes and values, highlighting how gender discrimination can affect both male and female
And yet only the Ken's are portrayed as the bad guys.
Also yeah no shit it's PG13. It should not be given it's for a little girl's brand of toys. Transformers had the same problem.
Like they just ignore ratings!!!
You’re shocked that she needed to tell people this movie isn’t for kids and yet I have multiple friends who proudly took their small children to see it.
@@annajohnson5053 that's what the PG in PG13 stands for, parental guidance. If you're a half educated adult who responsibly raises children, you can answer and explain questions that may arise.
She's saying that because a lot of mothers are taking their daughters to this. PG-13 doesn't mean much to parents anymore.
Thank you for keeping Karens out of public theaters. You are performing a valuable public service. The producers should send you a check because you have earned it.
Ben is so upset that you didn't take him. He had an outfit picked out too. You need to call him and apoligize.

I don’t get how femininity is taking care of others and being dependable? Obviously those are important traits for women but i think they’re important for everyone. If a man were doing those things would it be considered feminine then to?
@@maddiesenator5491Exactly.
@@maddiesenator5491 There is no such thing as a "nurture" gene or an "acheive" gene, you are wrong. Am I going against my nature by swaddling and soothing my son? How absurd lmfao.

@@heman3141 I mean there are absolutely "nurturing" traits that are more common in women its pretty delusional to argue against that
@@haridaspalleeri6765 really? Define nurturing. Then show me the specific genes. Prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that this isn't an aspect of cultural norms and is rooted in biology.
@@heman3141 women are proven to read facial expressions far better than men can. Over the years of evolution, women were the primary caretakers of the young, and understanding the infant's facial expressions were important to its survival and therefore women evolved to be better at it.

@@catfish513 I’m going this weekend and I’m excited 😊. I love when Ryan Gosling plays comedic roles
Don't worry they have said patriarchy 15-20 times that alone would give you multiple orgasms😊
I personally liked the film 😂 I’d see it again haha Ryan gosling was so funny 😂
Lol I don’t think you watched this movie when you did this review. “Empty shallowness of femininity, which could be appropriate by men” is literally a plot point of the movie and is pointed out. Same with the “men having nothing to do in barbieland” when they actually do prior to them taking over there’s a scene of this. I didn’t Ike the movie fr but I remember the plot points. Math ain’t mathing in this review
Honey, you have no idea what life is like outside of your own :/ This movie touched a lot of people from different walks of life.
That's all good though with this movie going past the 1 billion mark soon. Means there's lotsa woke people I guess 😂
What does "woke" mean even
@@melodyscorpion6606No one knows lol. The right wing says everything is woke but can't give examples.

-Marry but hetero marriage only.

-Have another baby.
-Don't show to much skin.
-Get the attention of your husband but not MY HUSBAND.
-Baby again.
Do everything we say, and it's a judge free zone😊
Yes, God forbid a community actually be defined by something, not just a random gathering of people.
@wingofmae I agree it’s ridiculous 😂
Well the movie is now the biggest money maker of the year. The second time I saw this movie the full house applauded after the movie and I have heard other people say the same thing. Seems like hundreds of millions of people have found this movie very watchable and it seems cancel culture is not as strong as the right wants it to be.
I played my Barbies like it was a soap opera. Lol. I have always wanted to be a screenwriter and when I was playing with my dolls they were like episodes and I used to say cut everytime I had to stop playing. Lol 😂
I saw barbie. I loved it. As well as my girls. And when it comes as blu-ray, ill be buying it. People are way too serious. And that "feminist utopia" where barbies rules and Kens are in the sidelines... That's EXACTLY how girls play with these dolls. Ken is always just standing there, while the Barbies are doing stuff. Simple.
You're being way too strict and assuming. Loosen up.
The fact is Barbie used to be a toy for girls but now it's a propaganda machine for toxic feminists who don't even know about the foundation of real feminism, their whole message is that men are useless and not needed, this movie is all about that message. Anyone who can't see this message is lying to him/her self. It's sad that a concept of a toy meant for innocent kids is being used for this.
Most girls had Barbie date Max Steel so personally I was very triggered Max Steel wasn’t cameod. Anti Max propaganda will not slide!!! 😮💨
Ong, very upset I didn't see my G.I Joe figurines date barbie either.
@@reduwu7602 omg an outrage!!! protest !!!!
Never saw someone work so hard to miss a point.
I think Abby will be delighted to know that at the ripe age of 7, my Barbie was going down on other Barbies, with ken hardly ever even being played with.
The messaging of the movie is so muddy it teaches the opposite lesson it wants.
They dress and get ready for other women....
Ben and Abby both saw Barbie 😂 I knew they both would but still funny
I wonder if they went together. My brother and I did and we took our kids 😂😂😂.
This movie was supposed to be funny. It's barbie land. Idk why so many people went into this movie taking it seriously. How are barbies gonna have babies?? There's no genitalia.
You have any thoughts of your own on the matter?
Honestly t think you missed the point of the movie. You can be what ever you want to be, period. Also the whole monologue of America Ferrera character applied to conservative views. Like constantly saying things like been a mother is fully fulfilling and kinda shamed people when that mom share their struggles as mothers. Also this is not a kids movie it’s PG-13
Also wanted to state I agree that they put down motherhood. But then made the statement that your mom is the person who steps back so her kids can shine. Barbie never came across as bad. And it felt like they blamed everything on the "Barbie brand". She just a doll I disagree with you that she represents everything wrong and tells girls being a mom is bad. My parents made sure to instill that I was made by a wonderful God! And parents who love me.
Yeah, pretty sure they're not putting down motherhood in the movie. I'm seeing the movie tomorrow but I've also seen the clips you might be referring to and they're just acknowledging how hard it is for people to be a mother or parent They're your aunt stay at home, work from home or working parent and just trying to find that balance. Not to mention that child free and other woman in general don't have it easy
There are multiple pro-motherhood lines in the movie. One literally says "if you just want to be a mother, that's okay too."
You’re going to have a conniption if you see the new Snow White movie
1:09 I’d did this for you (She’s talking to the engagement numbers 😉)
Good lord, there’s a wokeness meter…
Painful
Great review, but had to turn the sound off to enjoy.
Based Comment
Got to love the the conservative selective outrage. And I don't like Tohmi Lauren even she thought the backlash was ridiculous lol
Omg Tomi Lauren being reasonable? Broken clock right....
Abby, I would love for you to review some CLASSIC movies like The Wizard of Oz, Gone with the Wind, etc.
Seeing the religious crowd and conservatives mald over this stuff is hilarious 😂
Hey girl I’m impressed by how intelligent you are. When I saw this movie I only found it kind of boring but without knowing why. The fallowing days I reflected on the reasons but I only came to probably less than a quarter of those you give, which I not only happen to agree with, but I also recognize of a more insightful view than any article written by any supposedly expert critic that I have read about it. So I can do no less than congratulate you. Go on with your work and don’t let the comments of bad people get in your way.
As an person who grew up in the 80’s
That I have seen catalogue’s and commercials for Barbie showed an family play set to say I mainly played with he-man and the real ghostbusters that I have both the firehouse and the castle of greyskull in my collection but I find it hard to believe that they didn’t have children in Barbie’s dream world fun for all the family movie my butt.
clearly her only problem with the movie is that barbie didn't have ridiculously massive knockers and jealous no one asked her to play the titular character
Exactly, it's quite the opposite women are adopting masculine energy and the feminine energy that the world needs and that makes women so special is sad to observe. Thanks for pointing that out. Gives me hope when there's still a few who speak sense, cause you can't speak against the pushed narratives these days. So sad to see society eat up the programming so easily.
Barbie from the very beginning was a feminist concept teaching girls they could be anything the want to be & had been inclusive for decades. The movie wasn’t at all male bashing, was very relatable & was hilarious. Conservatives are extremely sensitive and look for negativity where there isn’t any and end up missing the bigger point. Men were actually portrayed very well in this movie if you actually had a brain you’d see that. That it’s made clear that men themselves aren’t the issue and that they can be redeemed & we can live together peacefully.
It was totally man bashing and Barbie was never remotely feminist, that's Mattel spin. They used to bring out dolls like Ken president and first lady Barbie and Ken pilot and Flight attendant Barbie amnd had Barbie say "math class is hard"
@@poocrayon4588 no. It has always been feminist. The entire concept of having a little girl aspire to have a career at all rather than play with baby dolls and dream of being a mother.. is feminist. The idea that a woman can do anything a man can do.. is feminist. People clearly just never really understood the concept of Barbie or it’s messaging. & I notice the majority of the ppl having an issue all look the same. It’s very telling, & even more telling when they express what they thought the movie was going to be.
@@MaiyaMia1 Yeah - and the message wasnt that a woman could do anything a man could do for a long long time. Barbies jobs were usually stereotypical womesn jobs like Nurse, teachers assistant etc - like I said for ages Ken got the man job.
Lol congrats on eating up the Mattel spin. Shit barbie was literally designed by a sex freak called Jack Ryan who used to have huge orgies - that's why she has pointy tits and looked like a 50's bombshell. Cos he thought it was hot.
@@MaiyaMia1 You say it’s clear without actually explaining- which ironically is the sane assumption the movie makes in its narrative as it’s entirely perceptual in its message Which leaves open to interpretation
Ken gets a taste of power by Learning of the patriarchy in the real world and and goes back to barbie lane to dominates - (totally not male bashing ) 🤦♂️
Clear as mud
i clicked on this thinking i would disagree with you but i actually agree. i actually really enjoyed the movie and had fun watching it. but the storylines didn’t match up and then barbie chose to be in the “terrible real world”. and then everything just goes back to their normal in barbie world. little confusing
i do think your conservative background affects your view on the no children aspect/ man- woman dynamic. i didn’t see as much of an issue with this since i am not conservative. i do think the movie did a good job portraying what women feel we “need” to be. the thin but not too thin, funny but not outspoken. that’s a real dichotomy women have to navigate every day. religious or not, every women and little girl judges themselves and compares themselves to what society “wants” and i’m glad that was highlighted, despite you not seeing it as accurate
Why is a conservative woman giving her opinions on stuff? Shouldn't a man be doing this video?
I had a few Barbies when I was younger, along with a Barbie dream house and car. I don't remember having a Ken doll to play with alongside Barbie, but I do remember absolutely loving the task of taking out all of the furniture pieces from her house, neatly putting them all back inside (like a giant puzzle), and then playing with my dolls lol My baby dolls were the ones I played mom with, and it was fun changing their diapers, feeding them, and dressing them up in cute clothes. It's fun being a girl!
I feel like conservatives are trying so hard to just hate on this movie. I think it was a beautiful social commentary that benefitted both MEN and WOMEN. Under the matriarchy in Barbieland, the Kens felt like they had no purpose but to just "be there" which is why they took power and turned it into a "patriarchy" and it also strongly hurt the Barbies too (although the Kens did do more damage to the Barbies then the Barbie's did to kens) In the end it shows that Ken just needed a feeling of identity that didn't surround Barbie. And for Barbie herself, she wanted to go to the real world to live the real human experience of being a woman, whether that is being a mother or being in the workforce. She also realized that life is HARD, life is full of EMOTIONS. It's all an allegory to a girl growing up and becoming a woman. But I think the movie honestly viewed MOTHERHOOD in such a beautiful light and I don't understand how conservatives overlooked that. Especially during the montage near the end. This movie has a huge amount of satire, so not everything is supposed to be taken super seriously. It's so ridiculous that women's empowerment is now woke. I don't even know how this is manhating when the Barbies literally help the Kens find an identity. The end message is literally that both matriarchy and patriarchy don't work. Also just because we live in a male dominated society doesn't mean that the human experience isn't worth living for. Barbies desire to be in the real world stems from the idea that she doesn't want to live in an artificial world and she wants to be able to experience the emotions and changes a human being goes through. It's not that hard to understand. This entire review is so biased and ridiculous lol. Did you miss the part where America Ferrera talks about how women are meaningful as just mothers, in the workforce, or even both. Did you miss the literal montage at the end of the daughters and mothers? Like be so fr.
Couldn't have said it better myself
💯
Lol literally every man in the movie is potrayed as a moron doing something wrong
@@poocrayon4588 It’s satire.
@@AnnSmajstrla Lol, what a crappy excuse. Old racist cartoons depict all black people as dumb as well - do you say "it's satire" to defend that?
Interesting - when I played with barbie and ken in the early
80s - ken was barbies best friend - I never saw them as partners or going to get married. They were besties - which is different from this movie and also different from you.
Definitely go back and do older media too.
Back when I was a kid my mom used Plugged In for their media reviews, but I don't even know if they're around still let alone doing reviews, or if their reviews have been infected like so many other formerly good sites. So it'll be great to have a new conservative reviewer on the field for parents.
For context, I'm not conservative nor liberal exclusively, but when one side fights for the pendulum to go so far on their side, it's *going to* go swinging back with equal force. The artificial division needs to die out. This is why we're seeing people like Nick Fuentes rise in popularity (and I use him as an example because I see him as truly far right unlike 99.99% of what's called "far right" these days, I mean he's basically an ethnonat). But anyway, not to get too bogged down in political jargon but I both think and feel that it needs to be said.
Hope you're all doing well, much love and best wishes to you and your loved ones.
Abigail is so angry in this video lol When she starts ranting about women in boxes I giggled a little bit. Religious people are notorious for their judgmental attitudes and shame of others women especially if they don't adhere to the religious roles they themselves put onto others. That monologue was actually ok just because it had spoke to only a fraction of what women go through when it comes to the hypocrisy that society puts on to others. When it comes to. Ken and Barbie. I never played mother-hood with them. I even had some Barbies have a relationships with one another. But Ken was like a best friend or like sometimes a bf to one of my Barbies when I would change their story lines. But never motherhood. The go ask your mother was actually so funny to me because yeah my mother was raised Christian but hated being a mother. She really wasn't ment for it and I'm totally okay with that knowledge. That's why we shouldn't put pressure on girls when they're young to become mothers when they're older.
She’s desperately trying to control how others live. Begging others not to allow their children to see this 😂😂😂😂😂
Abby needs to get off her horse. How about she parent her kids and let’s others do the same. God, she is fucking miserable.
I believe Jesus Christ exists, died for my sins, rose again and through His grace, forgives me constantly for my sins when I ask. MY GOD only has a position of unconditional love for ALL of us He has never asked me to do anything other than to love others the same way HE loves me. That's it. So please know all people who claim Christianity do not fall under the same beliefs. I don't believe we are called to go after those who differ from us beyond prayer and unconditional love. ONLY GOD can change hearts and minds and the only one who knows exactly what should and should not be. I prefer to leave it in His PERFECT hands and continue to do what He has called me to do and that is to love unconditionally.
That's a whole lot of word salad
@@DatcleanMochaJo You're only saying that because you couldn't handle a random person's opinions.
She is not nearly as angry as the dorks in these comments defending this mediocre feminist sermon/toy commercial like it's groundbreaking art
Getting a different perspective outside of mine, pls RUclips don’t fuck up my algorithm too much😂 🤞🏾
Yasssss just what we needed… another conservative girly giving us absolutely nothing! 😍🔥
Helpful and interesting review, thank you Abby 🙂 I didn't have a Ken doll as a child, I think I played homemaking with Barbie ❤️ Joanna
I agree with some things you said but disagree with most of whst you said. The point that the real world is seen as bad doesn't make sense because at least the mom (who is from the real world) helped the barbie world become equal. Both Ken and Barbie realized they were in the wrong. I feel like you took the movie too seriously. I mean it’s just a fun little movie that mocks gender roles. I think itbwas meant to be satire and an exaggeration of what men and women should be.
This lady has no idea what woke is.
Is this a comedy video?
I would rather see you review old movies. But not necessarily judge them if they're appropriate for kids or not, maybe you could just make that a smaller segment in the video, I'd rather just hear your takes. Having watched the original "Rocky" recently I think it's a masterpiece of American cinema, and I think you'd find the lessons in it very mature and valuable. That actually IS a good movie for kids (or at least teens) for its life lessons despite how shallow the idea of it might sound.
I think most parents should make an effort to present classics to kids from different eras and use them as a gateway to teach them about the past. Especially while they're young and having formed preconceived notions about old movies being boring or slow.
Abby what does woke mean
Means things they don't like. Lol.
Like she knows
Probably something spooky
😂😂😂 you went to see the movie but formed a negative and biased opinion before even seeing it. This movie is so great for young girls and woman that are constantly told it’s a Ken’s world out there. So uplifting, promoting self worth and confidence. And all you can take out from this movie is the typical conservative talking points. Sad that you never either understood or tried to see the real message and the good in this movie. Most prob you didn’t even get a lot of the humor or the references. I suggest you watch it again and clear your mind before you do that.
Her and her brother being such cry babies about this movie makes me want to watch it more
Top movies domestically this summer: Barbie, Spiderverse, Guardians, Little Mermaid. Notice something? Top Shows all year Dragon, Last of us, Euphoria, Andor, the bear: all disney and hbo.... notice something?
That large studios with a lot of resources make blockbuster movies and tv series??? Or are you trying to imply some kind of "woke" conspiracy?
@@hlywrd All studios and media companies are woke, this summer, content for kids:
*Transformers cartoon (non-binary robots): by Paramount.
*Nimona: gay, trans characters and couples on Netflix.
*Teenage Kraken by Universal: gay high-school couple go to prom wearing rainbow ties.
*Spiderverse: "protect trans kids" written on trans flags, by Sony.
*Barbie: gay Kens, trans Barbies, feminist galore, by Warner Brothers.
These are all the major companies. Do you know what doesn't have something like that? Elemental, Little Mermaid.
Did you know Disney dropped Nimona cause they thought it was too explicit for kids? Notice something? you claim to fight this nonsense yet you wholeheartedly supported each of these projects because you were distracted by a black Mermaid.
@@aishaalamoudi599 I am fine with LGBTQ representation in media in fact I think its great. Sexuality isn't a choice my guy seeing this media isn't going to turn the frogs gay or whatever you right wingers seem to worry about also elemental was considered a huge flop so maybe not the best example
@@aishaalamoudi599 I love how y’all people not even trying to hide that you use the word “woke” as a shield for bigotry anymore. If you think a movie simply having a gay character makes it “woke” you need to do some soul searching.
@@sapphicwriter you're yelling at the wrong person...plus, it doesn't matter what I think or you think; that's how they use that word, it's what they think.
Funny movie but every movie has a political agenda. Especially Hollywood.
Man thw coping is extending to the whole family
This movie was not made for children.
This isn’t a kids movie. Geez. This woman is condescendingly weird 😊
Agree with you. Horrible! Too bad, I was really looking forward to watching it, and it was such a let down.
Conservatives are so sensitive lmao
I played with Barbie and Ken equally, and sometimes they got in bed together ☺️
I hope they both kept at least one foot on the floor! ☺
12:17 everything you just listed right there can literally just be applied to masculinity is there really a difference between the two besides the gender of the person it’s being applied to? 😂😂
I played with them if i was 5 or so with ken and Barbie in the same way as you.
Thats the point of Barbie.. the Barbies is not a mom and there are none in real life so I don’t know why you want them to be a mom so much Also Barbie is a dream land, not reality. And yes it was feminist at first but it’s not like ken was pushed aside, we get to see his feelings and how excluded he felt so there was equality there.
Did he pick you yet 🥺 sandpaper lips
I’m a believer. My children and I have a close relationship where I took them to see this movie. Memories as a child with playing Barbie’s and how they were played were brought up here. It was nostalgic. We laughed, we cuddled and I cried in some moments of remembering my brokenness before knowing Christ. I was able to share this with my kids after the movie. Our kids are eventually going to see this. It’s best for us as parents to be their first in many things that this world is throwing out. That’s how we stomp on the enemy with our heel. So stop judging the movie and realize that this world is broken but we too once were and most of us did play with Barbie’s and had that imagination. For the moms who are raising boys this is a great movie to share that even men have questions about their existence and purpose but there’s hope in Christ. Parents let’s use every opportunity to minister to our children so they’re not judgmental but humble and understanding people to a hurting and broken world.
I am a feminist and a lover of exploring the history of the women's rights movement. I also have serious issues with this movie. Women's rights and is part of a larger social movement that every American supports. Starting with the Enlightenment in the 1700, there was a questioning of the ruling of all societies by an extremely small supposedly God appointed elite of priests and aristocrats. This movement over the next 300 years under many names moved to stop slavery, protect children in factory, extend rights to women, and many other fights, but importantly also lower class men. There have always been conservatives who try to make women's rights about some kind of feud between men and women, but often, the fighters for women's rights were also abolitionists and fighters for extending voter and other working class men's rights. Remember in 1800, in both the US to a lesser extent, and England to a great extent only men with property could vote. The extending of rights to women was just a part of all lesser mortals.
I haven't seen the movie yet and will be watching it tomorrow. But it's clear so many people on the right miss the entire point and the mark lol.
It’s not that political compared to other films I’ve seen, even...
@@melodyscorpion6606 how is a movie that focuses on the patriarchy for a majority of it not political? It's impossible to be a woman? That's so ridiculous! Most of the beauty standards in our society are made and enforced by women.
I thought it was funny. But I like how she’s all about her respective opinion like my home boy Ben! Let’s gooo
Wow. I really feel like Abby stepped out of the movie, or checked her phone, or SOMEthing. Because she seemed to miss some very straightforward and even EXPLICIT explanations/exposition. Seems a bit confused
Watch it only for Ryan Gosling
What the bored haters in the comments don't seem to understand is by watching and leaving a comment they are actively supporting you and engaging in your content. 🤣 I can't imagine watching something with the intention to pitch a fit everyone else in the comments is already pitching. 🐑 It's so redundant people. Where's the pro in being hateful for no reason? She's just giving a movie review.
Thanks for taking the time to share your opinion Abby. I like seeing differing opinions. It's very human and normal. Your allowed to not like something, and it's great to see you don't let the annoying masses slap you down for being different. Doubt any of them would have the guts to say it to your face.
lmao ur clueless
I would love to see some reviews of older kids movies too, as well as new movies as they come out!! Thank you so much!
Thank you!
