It was a cutsey Barbie movie. I particularly liked the horses and Archibald. The sisters were ok, although Barbie was irresponsible and the embodiment of toxic positivity at some points of the movie.
The ending though disappointed me greatly. Chelsea arrived too late at the contest (it was due to Barbie's incompetence but still), the puppies manipulated the host (who had already picked the winner, Lindsay, who danced perfectly) to let her compete, she was doing a lousy job and falling yet they didn't stop her, instead every animal and her sisters pulled on the stage and danced along (pretty sure that was against rules as well), and Chelsea, the little protagonist, eventually snatched the price from the other girl, Lindsay, who had won fair and square, and without using all those effects Chelsea did . What was even the message of the movie? Puppy-eye your way through everything?
