Barbie got the Honest Trailers treatment – and it’s everything

Honest Trailers is a ‘does what it says on the tin’ kind of account, which often highlights the funny things we hadn’t noticed about the films it mocks.

This time, the target is the smash-hit Barbie movie – and we think they nailed it.

‘It’s a land where every race and body type of Barbie is treated equally as they all copy how they’re being played with in the real world – minus the times we make them kiss and mash their smooth plastic mounds together.’

The video has more than a million views and over 46,000 likes, not to mention a couple of thousand comments – including these.

There was no other alternate title more perfect for this movie than “Guys & Dolls.”

The fact that hollywood saw the success and thought more toy movies is proof why we needed this movie.

Ok, I’m sorry, but I have to give mad props to Epic Voice Guy for reading all of those lyric lines. It’s something I never knew I always wanted, so thank you!

The movie with a message so clear, everyone but the studio that made it understood it.

I’m genuinely impressed that you made a whole honest trailer about Barbie and didn’t mention “I’m Just Ken”.
