I saw Barbie last night and loved it. (I commented in the movie section.) If I had to give it a star rating, I’d give it four stars.
In my head, star ratings go up to four (for “excellent”). There is a five star rating, reserved for classics (Gone With the Wind, Casablanca, Star Wars, The Fellowship of the Ring), but it’s not something I’d feel comfortable giving a contemporary movie. A movie has to be around for a while before it gets that exalted status — In the review system in my head anyway. Will Barbie get five stars? I don’t know, ask me in 10 years or so. For right now, it’s as good a film as there is at the moment.
