If you’re hoping to experience a multiverse of unique, strong-personality Barbies, you’re better off going to Toys R Us after a few martinis. Played by Hari Nef, Dua Lipa, Nicola Coughlan and Emma Mackey, among others, the group members all act similarly and are frustratingly interchangeable with few standout moments.The narrator adds that Barbie Land citizens believe that, “thanks to Barbie, all problems of feminism and equal rights have been solved” out in the real world.
LA, needless to say, doesn’t look or behave all that differently than Barbie Land, and hardly any truly funny fish-out-water antics happen in this film. Drama, sort of, comes when Ken becomes obsessed with the real world’s patriarchy and masculinity and brings them back to upend Barbie Land.
