Legendary director Werner Herzog speculates if Barbie’s world is hell after watching just 30 minutes of Greta Gerwig’s movie. Piers Morgan agrees, urging Herzog to spare himself from the horror of the whole film.
Herzog is not the only director to comment on Barbie. Oliver Stone previously criticized the movie but later apologized, praising its originality and themes.
Despite the controversy, “Barbie” has received eight Oscar nominations, including best picture, boosting the morale of the film industry.
So, is Barbie’s world truly a metaphorical hell? Herzog and others may have differing opinions, but one thing is certain – the film has sparked a philosophical debate in the world of cinema.
