#EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE TRAILER MOVIE#

Here’s a helpful tip for aspiring filmmakers: If you want to use action-type soundtracks, at least make something happen!Įven if we were looking for a plotless movie as the trailer suggests, we would imagine a live-action version of the struggles Barbie faces in the original movies - like fighting an evil throne usurper after discovering she’s a mermaid princess in “Barbie: A Mermaid Tale.” Unfortunately, we got another failed attempt at making something “deep” when in reality, the entire movie franchise was meant to be a silly little dreamworld for children.

Well, the only plot twist of this entire 1-minute trailer is that it does absolutely nothing. You’d expect to see something pretty dramatic happening in order to live up to the sound effects the video was poorly overwhelmed with. Instead of appearing like a peek back into the carefree period during everyone’s childhood, it’s like glimpsing into a glorified remake of the Hunger Games. Random, inappropriately placed sound effects that are typically found in trailers for action movies accompanying a dramatic death or explosion are instead played to Barbie winking, and it’s not a pretty picture. The poor audio layering of the narration and Barbie Girl soundtrack gives the trailer the feel of a fever dream. The uncreative fonts, the poorly utilized sound effects, the cringe-worthy visual effects and the colors of every scene are all awfully exaggerated.

If there is a guide for what NOT to do as a trailer, this would be it. Sigh!īut seriously, the trailer is poorly made - every MAP student would definitely cringe when they see the unoriginal sunset hook, the rookie attempt at transitions and the dramatic music along with frames that tell the audience nothing about what’s going on. If you think the plotline follows the exact same structure as millions of other coming-of-age Disney-esque films, you would be correct! Zero out of five falcons. The new “Barbie” movie centers around an imperfect doll who is exiled from Barbie Land and enters the real world, embarking on a journey of self-acceptance. So, when we heard about the upcoming “Barbie” live-action movie, we naturally decided to revisit our childhood idol by reflecting on the trailer and past Barbie movies. From “Barbie: Life in the Dreamhouse” to “Barbie & the Diamond Castle,” we have followed all the content made about Barbara Millicent Roberts - the original IT girl, and usually just called Barbie - on the internet since 2009.
