    I mean by the by it was a funny movie and I liked it. But when you get right down to it, it was a hail-mary attempt by Matel to switch the narrative about their toys being unhealthy for young women’s body image. I’d say thats the only consistent message it had.

    It is kind of funny that the movie’s ultimate message was that a society with strictly enforced gender roles and a dominant sex is good.

    Also where was the queer representation? They showed magic earing Ken but no gay characters? Really??

    I had a really similar experience playing cyberpunk weirdly. Like, you think you’re being clever by doing something that logically should save you based on the established rules of the world, then the writers decide to pull the rug out right at the end and say “nope, sorry we’ve got a thematic ending in mind and you have to die no matter what”. Really left a sour taste in my mouth.


  • To be honest, I’m not even sure if I am criticizing it, in the same sense that i don’t really have any criticisms of the colour beige…

    It made no impression on me, it had no memorable characters or interesting ideas, I can’t even remember the plot despite the fact that im sure i played through the whole thing. The only take away i had was a string of marvel level quips and an extremely thorough understanding that evil corporations are bad…

    I was just, disappointed. Thats all. But my impressions are coloured by how much i wanted it to be good after playing falliut 4. Definitely do not let that influence your experience, if you loved it then i believe you 100%
