I'm sure it's a wonderful movie, if you're a 12 year old Girl.

Why?

I also looked at the reviews for Sound of Freedom.  It has a 99% rating from viewers.  That's even more impressive.

Republicans rip ‘Barbie’ movie for map showing Beijing’s claims over South China Sea

 

She’s a Barbie girl in a Barbie world, but the movie based on the iconic doll is entangled in a real-life political snafu, with GOP lawmakers criticizing it over a scene that features a map depicting China’s claimed territory in the South China Sea.

Sens. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) and Ted Cruz (R-Texas) were among those who ripped the flick last week ahead of its July 21 release date. One scene, originally shown in the movie’s trailer, shows a cartoon map that labeled parts of the sea that Vietnam claims as its own as Chinese territory. Vietnam banned the movie from domestic distribution as a result.

 

“China wants to control what Americans see, hear, and ultimately think,” a spokesperson for Cruz said, “and they leverage their massive film markets to coerce American companies into pushing Chinese Communist Party propaganda — just like the way the Barbie film seems to have done with the map.”

“Hollywood and the Left are more concerned with selling films in Communist China than standing up to the regime’s human rights abuses,” Blackburn said in a tweet.

“The ‘Barbie’ movie’s depiction of a map endorsing Beijing’s claims to the South China Sea is legally and morally wrong and must be taken seriously,” Blackburn said.

Republicans Reps. Mike Gallagher (Wisc.) and Mark Green (Tenn.) have also spoken out about the movie, which stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling as the famed doll duo, Barbie and Ken.

Green said in a Twitter post that since the Warner Bros. film is “promoting a world in which China controls most of the South China sea, perhaps this movie studio should think twice about asking for assistance from the [Department of Defense] for its next action movie.”

“While it may just be a Barbie map in a Barbie world, the fact that a cartoonish, crayon-scribbled map seems to go out of its way to depict the [People’s Republic of China’s] unlawful territorial claims illustrates the pressure that Hollywood is under to please CCP censors,” Gallagher told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Really, we aren't going to discuss the geo-political implications of Barbie and the China Sea?

I said my kids wouldn’t be going to see this movie months ago after seeing the previews.  You can look it up, and  that was well before you soy boys got all excited to see it.  And as a man, I was never going to see it in the first place. Have fun!

I still need to see Drive. I read the book this year - it was just okay but it was very cinematic and made me want to catch the movie.

There are a lot of things the left does that they get mocked for- deservedly so-....but this whole "Woke" "Insanely woke" "insufferably woke" line of thinking stuff is equally idiotic and worthy of being mocked.

That's a great movie, Shane Black at his best. I was hooked the minute Gosling has his "accident" early in the film.

Yeah I was surprised that Ben Shapiro didn't put out the Barbies he lit on fire with Bud Light.  Probably would have gotten him more likes.

Drive is one of my favorites of his.   The biggest complaint at I got at the store was from dudes that thought they were renting Die Hard.  But as you found out with the book, it's a bit slower and cinematic than a typical heist/action movie.

I think he is totally underrated and like him in just about everything - Drive to Nice Guys to BR 2049 to Crazy Stupid Love.   Don't forget Remember the Titans too!  

My favorites that few have seen are a couple of this first movies The Believer and Half Nelson.

That would explain a lot. An orthodox Jewish person from the Valley who went to Cal and Harvard and comes from an intensely liberal based family. 

Yes- "alpha male"

For a guy who says he doesn't care to the point where he demands that people ask him how much he doesn't care - you sure do post a lot on things you supposedly don't care about

Yes, that was a reason to not like Barbie and the brand.   They did good things like having different careers and things like that, part of the backlash was because of the unrealistic body type.   They even did f0cked up things like a Sleepover Barbie that had a scale stuck at 110 and had a book that just read "don't eat" with it.   

I was listening to an interview with Gerwig, and she also said as much - she loved playing with them, but her mom hated having them in the house.
