The Barbies pokemon-go to the polls and vote out the Kens. It's mind-numbingly stupid. Remember how that strategy went in 2016? It doesn't deserve the awards.

    Lol no

    The final challenge could have been anything, the point was to have some deadline to give urgency to the plot.

    It could perfectly been a beachvolleyball match and it wouldnt have changed the plot at all. But in that case you would have posts on this site saying "The mesage of Barbie is that women need to get better at volleyball to defeat patriarchy".

      You're reaching soooo far. Sorry if you loved the movie but the message was literally that women should vote and then ban men from voting. It's embarrassing.

        If that was the message you would think the movie would have more than 2 scenes developing it and it would have been a part of the arc of the main character

        I didnt love the movie btw, my comment was more about how just because a movie has a vote in it it doesnt mean its about vote
