Barbie: A Fairy Secret

Barbie movies are getting a lot lame when they make a new one!The movie doesn't even make sense!Why,it's all about fashion,make-up and all kinds of icky girly stuff!The graphics hurt me a lot.It's giving me a headache!A fairy princess(So stupid!)who suddenly drunk a magical potion that made her in love with Ken?!?!And then a war on who shall marry the princess?!Fairies are the lamest things you'll ever see in this movie.You know why?Instead of being those fairies you see in fairy tales(Which is so awesome!The lands are so magical looking!)You see a fairyland that you only see are the colors pink,pink,PINK!!!And instead it's just full of boutiques!Fairies' lands are supposed to be colorful!Barbie is such a pink and fashion wannabe!She's not a good role model for girls.She will never be!What she just talks about are girly stuff that you not-so-girly girls will barf and complain about!The worst movie in history!

I'm very disappointed with this movie. If I have my own kids, I don't think I would want them to see it. It has very little substance to it and is more centered on fashion (make-up, dresses, skimpy and tight clothes (subtle message on dressing sexy and provocatively) stylish shoes, matching belt, etc.) and unnecessary spending. A person's character is far more important than how someone looks. It is so ironic that the fairy whom they said was wise created fairy transport portals to take her to her favorite shopping spots when she just "can't wait" to buy something. This is the current state of most people in North America (women in general) - spending, spending, spending, living on credit cards and debt. The movie has too much immediate gratification mentality - getting what they want when they want it at whatever cause (unnecessary shopping, flirting with someone else's bf, manipulation, forcing someone to marriage, the list goes on and on. We are molding our kids to grow up to be kids and immature. No wonder our society is in shambles because the grownups who are supposed to be our role models are acting like kids and NOT responsible adults. Not to mention that there's a misplaced role between women and men. I can see that the movie depicted well the sad reality between gender roles. How many times do we see in our own households mothers taking the role of the fathers at home? In most cases, mothers have one more child than they asked for. Why? Because men are becoming more and more passive and it drives the women wild. And this movie is encouraging that (Ken playing the damsel in distress; the guy folded when the princess raised her voice and threatened to unleash her fury at him if he doesn’t shut up; etc.) This is the kind of mentality we are passing on to the next generation. I have nothing against women who can stand on her own two feet, but ladies, we have our own role to play already, let’s not take the men’s as well. Although they tried to address some negative issues in the end and tried to sprinkle values like friendship, forgiveness, communication and love, there are really no real consequences pertaining to the negative behaviour of the characters in the film. And again, this is exactly how we are now functioning at home nowadays. If kids will not be given real consequences for their actions, they will come back again and again to whatever they were doing wrong until they hit the wall. Boundaries are essential to develop one’s character and when they are crossed there should be serious consequences. When the princess found out that Crystal tricked her into marrying Ken so Crystal can scheme her way to have her bf she was secretly and desperately in love with, she was asked to clean up after the wedding reception as a punishment. How lame is that? This is supposedly a movie for kids. Let’s make some that is suited for them with morals and values they can imitate and live by – not some crappy movie enticing kids to just look pretty outside but rotten within.

at the end of the movie it talks a great deal about friendship and how to use your words( communiction skills) to find out why someone is not nice to you or why a friendship has fallen out.

it is supper
