Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling star as live-action versions of the iconic Mattel dolls Barbie and Ken in Greta Gerwig’s comedy.

After months of hype about the ‘Barbenheimer’ summer box office event, Barbie and Oppenheimer have finally arrived in cinemas.

Greta Gerwig’s comedy follows stereotypical Barbie (Margot Robbie), who lives an idyllic life in Barbieland, which is run by women.

She starts to have an existential crisis and worry about dying, so Weird Barbie (Kate McKinnon) advises her to go to the real world to get her malfunction fixed.

Ken (Ryan Gosling) tags along for the ride and their encounter with the real world will change their outlook about society forever.

Barbie is one of the most entertaining films of the year. It is hilarious, with constant laugh-out-loud jokes throughout, genius comedic performances and plenty of visual gags.

It is also wonderful to look at; the Barbieland set is jaw-droppingly impressive, while the colourful costumes are glorious.

The script pokes fun at our patriarchal society, gender...
