Here is what critics are saying about the movie showdown of the summer. Which half of "Barbenheimer" ended up on top?

TL;DR: “They both got good reviews. Please spend money on movies again!”

Lol I went to see Mission Impossible in theatres recently and it starts with Tom Cruise thanking you for watching movies in the theater and suggesting it's the best way to watch movies.

The people behind me talked through the whole thing and on the other side of the theatre two people got into an argument because the one person was on their phone the whole time. Ushers had to come in and tell them to be quiet or leave. So yeah, Tom Cruise thinks that's the best way to watch movies.

Maybe Theaters should make it possible to hear the Film over Bluetooth Headphones. So you can enjoy the Big Screen and use your Noise Canceling Earphone.

I think they should make them enclosed rooms isolated from other people. Maybe you can pop your own popcorn or bring other snacks. Having them close to your own home would be cool too. Maybe even inside your own home. I wish we had the technology to include screen where we live. Maybe one day...

How about not linking to clickbait, or at least provide a TLDR.

I don't even understand this matchup. They're not even similar movies, but it's been hyped like they're competing against each other since they were announced. It's weird.

I think it is because they are so different. The contrast is amusing so people are having fun with it. It's like the Matrix vs Momma Mia release or Doom vs Animal Crossing game release.

If anything, it's been really refreshing to see. Twenty years ago, your average film bro would be calling Barbie dumb, girly, and gay, and now it's being widely acknowledged that a female-directed movie with explicitly feminine aesthetics can absolutely be quality legitimate Cinema™ and go toe-to-toe with a literal Christopher Nolan biopic about a scientist making a bomb during WWII.

It's basically a new front on the culture wars - feminine vs masculine. So tiresome. They're both good films.

Barbie murdered his parents. Tragic story, really.

A stupid fucking doll called Barbie.

I hope that one day, you can be saved from cynicism and despair, just as me and many other here did.
