@3x10to8mps I've not seen it. But people I know who have, seem to have a very different impression from yours. I guess I'll have to make up my own mind when I see it.

@mike Please do. Listen to the words Ken sings so innocently: why couldn't I make you love me? Then he stalks her, stows away in her car when she leaves for an important trip, turns on her, steals her house, defiles her bed, revels in cruelty to her and tries to make it so women never have rights again

Women finally "win" by isolating (all in bizarre pink prison jumpsuits) in their Capitol building and voting to keep women's rights legal. Only the gay man supports their position

And Barbie just forgives Ken because she had been "mean" by considering him just a friend when he wanted more

Let me know what you think

@3x10to8mps Well, I could have done without the spoilers. But if I do eventually watch it I'll try to remember to get back to you.

@mike It's so well done it's insidious. The dark side is easily missed. And I gave no plot away. Most of those events are in the commercials and trailer. I just highlighted alternate perspectives I hope you may remember to look for.

And I imagine you will enjoy the movie. It deserves the awards it's going to win. It just perpetuates something I'm against. Hope to hear from you :-)
