I wasn't very enthusiastic about seeing Barbie and was dragged into the cinema by my girlfriend but I thought the movie was surprisingly good. It had some important messages interwoven within the movie related to how men are perceived in society and what's expected of women. I thought it was a very clever movie on many levels. I'd recommend that everyone at least watches Barbie once but for the sceptical men, keep an open mind because you'll be pleasantly surprised.
