    You should give it a spin. I was nothing like I imagined, and I had few preconceptions. Wife and I went, her first American movie theater experience!

    As a man, I felt Ken. I got where the guys were coming from. Sometimes I wanted to cheer, “Fuck yeah that’s what it’s like being a man!”

    My wife teared up during America Ferrara’s famous rant. Hell, I felt that. I won’t link it. You gotta see it in context, but it works on it’s own.

    It’s goofy as fuck, in case I’m making it sound overly dramatic. But it sure puts a screwdriver into American sexual roles and twists.

    Anyway, it was better than it had any right to be. I did not expect what I saw and came away with.

      I’ve been sort of interested in seeing it. I was very interested in Oppenheimer when it first came out (since I’m a science nerd), but after seeing some clips from it, I decided I hated it and lost interest in watching the whole movie. Barbie has a good chance of being better/
