Another thing was also said by a reviewer named Purnama after he watched the movie, he said that "This movie can not only be specialized for women but can be watched and enjoyed by everyone. In addition, this movie gives a good message and has a meaning of life and the purpose for which we were created. The quality of the movie production, cinematography, storyline and soundtrack used in this movie is very good to watch."
How can the Barbie movie give perspective to people who have watched it?
A student named Mutia also said that "I recommend this Barbie movie because this movie has a meaningful storyline in the form of moral messages that teach us to grow up to be ourselves who do not give up easily on any problems and do not depend on men, especially for women."
It is also said by Purnama that "This Barbie movie also shows the audience that every human being has their role in life. In addition, this movie opens a new perspective that both men and women have the right to be what they want. Important roles and positions that exist in real life can be occupied by both men and women.
On the other hand, this Barbie movie makes women realize that they have the right and can be whatever they want like this Barbie character. This movie also gives a perspective to men and women to help and complement each other, not to dominate or defeat each other."
It turns out that this Barbie movie was not just made to fulfil children's fantasies. It's not just about women's happiness and dreams. Barbie is about independence. A woman can be whatever she wants to be - with whatever identity she chooses. There's a lot of meaning in that. Although this movie is a feast for the eyes, it is not suitable for children to watch. The movie raises issues related to feminism, gender stereotypes, masculinity, patriarchy and most importantly, identity.
