Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling lead the cast of Greta Gerwig's new film
Simu Liu, Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling in Barbie
So, some background here. Margot's Barbie is just one of many Barbies, who inhabit and run Barbieworld, where everything is plasticly perfect and today is perfect, just like yesterday was perfect and tomorrow will be perfect forever and ever and ever. And Ken is one of many Kens, who enjoy – no, enjoy is the wrong word – endure the status of being the Barbies' arm candy while reaping no actual physical or emotional closeness from it.
Sooo… deep breath. That's four enormous names there already. The cast of this film is officially astonishing. They even have the new Doctor Who as one of the Kens. Kate McKinnon is phenomenal as Weird Barbie. America Ferrera is admirable as a grown-up Barbie fan. Barbies and Kens of all shapes and colours turn out to be A-list movie stars . And don't even get me started on "Ken's friend Allan", played by Michael Cera.
And they all seem to be having huge fun doing it. And that is director Greta Gerwig's great accomplishment – this movie is Fun with a capital F .So anyway, I loved it. The rest of Leicester Square loved it, judging by the cosplay and the applause that swept the cinema after the show. Downsides? It's very binary and heteronormative. There is a transgender Barbie, folks, but not in this movie. There's some mushy girly scenes that involve Rhea Perlman as a ghost. Bah. So good to see Rhea Perlman, though! And the representation of Allan veered dangerously close to being a gay stereotype.
