That's why I like the movie so much, it doesn't empower women by simply putting down men. It felt empowering for both sides I thought, no one should be judged by the standards of their gender.
I felt like the movie started in one direction and was putting down men. Not necessarily in a wrong way (a lot of it was a critique of patriarchy which is both true and necessary for a feminist movie.) But halfway through writing the movie they realized that an inevitable conclusion to the whole message of the movie was that the Kens were also victims of the system and they needed a positive plot arc. The movie tries to do it, but unlike Barbie the Kens don't really do anything to earn their progression and it feels shoehorned in because they wrote themselves into a corner.
Immediately bought it after watching the movie at the theatre. Call me a victim of our super consumerism society if you want but I love it and wear it every time I do home office.
Also my dad called me gay for wearing it, that's also a nice perk.
