See It Or Skip It? - Barbie

FIRST 24:30 are a spoiler-free review with our See It/Skip It verdict

AFTER 24:30 it's a full spoiler review

We're back again and this time we're giving Barbie the See It Or Skip It Treatment with Ian and Megan talking about their trip to see Barbie mid-week as Ian began his Oppenheimer double header.  How does Margot Robbie handle the titular character?  Why did a serious actor such as Ryan Gosling take on a piece in a film about a child's toy? Simu Liu and Michael Cera (2 more Canadians which brings our total to 3) join the cast - is there something distinctly Canadian about Barbie?  Will this win the box office in 2023?  How do we feel about the less than subtle ideology and did the film purposely mislead us as to what the story was in the trailer? We'll answer all these questions on Barbie and then we tell you whether you should SEE IT or SKIP IT.
