"Give Ryan Gosling an Oscar nom!": first Barbie reactions suggest film is a doll
Barbie, Greta Gerwig’s ambitious
satire
in which Margot Robbie’s titular
blonde
escapes Barbieland to experience the real world, has drawn ecstatic
reactions from audiences at an early screening. Variety’s social media editor Katcy Stephan called the movie “perfection” and added: “Greta Gerwig delivers a nuanced
commentary
on what it means to be a woman in a whimsical
, wonderful and laugh-out-loud funny romp
. The entire cast
shines
, especially Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling in roles they were clearly born to play.” Meanwhile ScreenRant writer Joseph Deckelmeier said the film was “funny, bombastic
and very smart”. “Greta Gerwig aims for the fences
and hits a home run,” he added, calling Robbie “great” and Ryan Gosling and Simu Liu – who play Kens – “pure entertainment”.
