I would absolutely not use the word "superficial" to describe Barbie, and feel fairly confident you haven't seen the movie given that you've chosen it.

How is it then? Actually good? What's the message?

Edit: no spoilers pls. But is it like a Lego movie situation, where you expect something awful and then its literally a masterpiece?

I was expecting “eh” but it was actually one of the better movies I’ve seen in a long time, and I’ve never even been a fan of Barbie toys. As for the message, there’s a few themes going on and I don’t have the communication skills to relay them without spoiling it.
