Twins & Barbie

from Bad Dads Film Review

This week on Bad Dads Film Review, we double up on trouble (and laughs) with our Top 5 Twins before diving headfirst into Greta Gerwig’s billion-dollar juggernaut Barbie.👯 Double Vision From Arnold and Danny in Twins to the terrifying Grady girls from The Shining, via Tintin’s bumbling detectives and even a detour into real-life Hollywood doppelgängers, we explore the weird, wonderful, and occasionally creepy world of twins on screen. Expect heated debate, dodgy impressions, and at least one unexpected Cessna reference.💖 Welcome to Barbie Land Then it’s time to swap our twin talk for Dream Houses, Mojo Dojo Casa Houses, and one of the most talked-about films in years. Greta Gerwig’s Barbie isn’t just pink fluff — it’s a meta-musical comedy that takes aim at patriarchy, gender politics, and existential dread, all while giving us Ryan Gosling’s unforgettable “I’m Just Ken.” We discuss:Barbie Land’s pastel-perfect world and its very real cracks.Margot Robbie’s pitch-perfect performance as “Stereotypical Barbie.”Why Ryan Gosling steals the show as a lovesick himbo.The film’s surprisingly sharp take on feminism, identity, and growing up.As always, there’s plenty of swearing, wild tangents, and the kind of cinematic analysis you won’t find in Sight & Sound (for good reason).👉 Tune in for existential crises, Ken’s horses, and the shocking revelation that some of us still haven’t seen Oppenheimer.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.
