      Yes, because that’s what all the reviews were raving about - the action. Not plot, characters, acting, or any of that artsy stuff.

        You don’t get how Hollywood executives work. They see Barbie being a massive success because people thought it was a smart and funny movie with a good message and decide, “this means we need more movies about Mattel toys!”

        They have absolutely no understanding of movies. It sort of feels like a lot of them don’t even like movies.
