Flash cost Warner Bros. almost $220 million and it was the biggest bomb of the year. Barbie’s budget is only $150 million and will very likely become the highest-grossing film of the year.
Based on what I’ve heard about the Barbie story I wonder if it’s going to drop a lot weekend after weekend. Many people were thinking they’d get an inoffensive children’s movie but it sounds like it very different.
I havent seen it yet, but the vibes from the trailers told me it wasnt going to be a children’s story, and if people thought that… oh man…
It’s one of those “kids will love it but adults have good jokes too” movies. I was, however, side-eyeing the whole theater when the Kens started chanting “beach him off, beach him off, beach him off…”
There were a ton of kids in the theater when I went to see it with some friends. Most were around 11-14 and I think the movie was appropriate for them. I wouldn’t let my 8 year old and 5 year old see it though
