Movieguide founder Dr. Ted Baehr is issuing a no-holds-barred warning to parents considering taking their children to see the new “Barbie” movie, sounding the alarm on what he says are deeply-concerning elements. “The movie is worse than you could possibly expect,” Baehr told CBN’s
Faithwire after screening it. “It’s hardcore propaganda … ‘Barbie’ just is
terrible.” The leading Christian film critic said the movie opens with a scene
featuring girls playing with baby dolls and the children “bash them and slap them”
and proclaim something along the lines of, “We don’t have to be mothers
anymore.” Baehr said “Barbie” is “hardcore feminist” and paints men as the
“problem” in society. “Barbie has to leave because she’s not adapting to this
hate of the patriarchal society, although she hates Ken,” he said. “Men are the villain and … there are a couple of trans people playing characters — Barbies.”
He said the latter issue carries with it a message that’s damaging to young
girls, calling it “an attack on women” and men alike. “You’re saying to those
little girls who go to see this movie that some little boy can be a better girl
than that little girl,” he said. “It’s an attack on men.” As for the LGBTQ
themes in the movie, Baehr said they are “extremely overt” and “not subtle.”
