But cue the record scratch: Barbie gets fired.

If you need a pick-me-up after a bad job review, a creative block, or just a gray Tuesday, watch this movie. Let the pink sparkles wash over you.

This wasn’t just another Barbie movie. This was the fashion movie. While The Devil Wears Prada gave us cerulean sweaters and anxiety, Barbie gave us magic hair clips, a sparkling robot named Summer, and the most iconic fashion show rescue since Cher Horowitz’s multi-plaid outfit builder.

Yes, fired. In a surprisingly mature twist, her co-star tells the press she’s “over” and the director agrees. Suddenly, the pink convertible isn’t looking so sunny.

(Answer: She’d serve looks, make a dry joke, and then save the day with a hidden jetpack.)

Just when things hit rock bottom, her eccentric Aunt Millicent (Delilah K. in a campy, brilliant performance) sends a mysterious message: Come to Paris. Urgent.

Barbie assumes it’s a vacation. Instead, she lands in the middle of a fashion emergency. When Barbie arrives at Aunt Millicent’s atelier, the magic is gone. The once-legendary fashion house is dusty, dark, and about to be repossessed by a snooty banker. Millicent has lost her creative spark because she lost her belief in "The Glimmer"—a magical, shimmering substance that represents imagination and self-confidence.
