We’ve had a lot of good movies this summer, with Barbie definitely winning the day. Bryan Caplan, my good friend and author of the “Bet On It” substack, asked me to share my sentiments at his venue. Here’s a sample. Click here for the entire column.
Barbie is not what I expected. The movie adopts an adult tone and is much more political than the trailers implied. It completely embraces a brand of modern feminism that has attracted its fair share of critics, including the author of the Bet On It substack. I found myself arguing with the movie. At the same time, I found the movie to be enjoyable and inventive. Given my mixed reactions, Bryan has asked me to share my thoughts.
Thanks for reading.
