'It Is The Movie Of Our Time': Barbie Twitter Reviews Are In

Welcome to the Barbie Land! Strike away the pink-coloured glasses because according to Twitter this is more than just a coming-of-age film of a fashion doll. 

Directed by Greta Gregwig, the film stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling. Months ahead of its release the film has created a buzz around from stores turning into pink colours to people turning their selfies into Barbie posters, the craze has been nothing like before. Now, as the film finally hit the theatres today July 21, 2023, let's see what are people saying about it on Twitter. 

A real tear-jerker 

While the plot details had been kept under wraps for a long time, a few cast interviews claimed that the film is a celebration of womanhood, female friendships, and body positivity with a punch of existential crisis. This movie is about a self-discovering journey of a stereotypical Barbie, and the reason, why you should step into her stilettoes, is because she gives them away! Yes, you heard it right! It's Barbie v/s the real world.

Just got out of #Barbie and this movie is so much more than what you expect. It's powerful, funny, and... emotional?

Sniffles were abound in my theater. It's a great watch and definitely one of the better movies of the year.#BarbieTheMoviehttps://t.co/NeZ4EOD7ad

Ryan Gosling brings in his Ken-energy and how!

Ryan Gosling deserves an Oscar nomination for his role as Ken. And "I'm Just Ken" deserves one for Best Original Song.

#Barbie looks camp right in the eye and turns it into a post-modern meta exploration of existentialism, feminism, the patriarchy and masculinity packaged in a satirical musical comedy homage to the fabric of cinema. It is *the* movie of our time. Ryan Gosling, the Oscar is yours. pic.twitter.com/lAZEbbr6BF
