The pink wave has yet to crest, the 'Barbie' movie has sold more than a billion dollars worth of tickets at the global box office, after just 17 days on general release. The milestone makes #GretaGerwig the first woman to reach the such heights as a solo director.
Barbie may be the most profitable but the Matrix and the Matrix Reloaded are still the best female directed movies.
I went into this movie not knowing what to expect. Honestly, I mostly went because my girlfriend wanted to see it.
I was pleasantly surprised. The movie is hilarious, well-acted, clever, and surprisingly touching. Also, the soundtrack has absolutely no business being as good as it is.
Me and my buddies went because we couldn't get tickets to Oppenheimer right away. "Barbie smashes the patriarchy" was not on my summer movie bingo card, but I'll take it! Ending was a little strange though
