Barbie
Chris's take
Way too in your face with its message, there was no subtlety and parts of the film were basically just characters reading out a lecture. It was abstract in all the wrong ways, forcing quirkiness without adding any underlying intelligence or quality filmaking. The main redeeming factor is that there were quite a lot of funny moments (especially Ryan Gosling).
