Oh, I didn't know I had to be AlPhA to not see the barbie movie, I was just sitting here not watching it because I'm not the intended audience.
My daughter and my wife did go to see it, my daughter liked it, wife was indifferent. And that's OK, not every movie needs to cater to every person.
You might be more in the target than you imagine. I learned an awful lot about the douche I was in my 20s from this movie.
I had to figure out what a douche I was on my own.
I thought I had done that as well. Turns out I'd missed a couple spots.
I hear it's a pretty damn smart and funny movie. I'd watch it if I was into movies, even though I'm definitely not part of the stereotypical Barbie movie target audience, either.
I usually can't sit still long enough for a movie, either.
