The hot topic in town is the Barbie movie, and NASCAR driver Denny Hamlin has shared his opinion. Directed by Greta Gerwig, this film features stars like Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Will Ferrell, Issa Rae, America Ferrera, and others. Barbie has gathered a lot of media attention, and there have been strong reviews. While many praised the film, others criticized the movie. 

Joe Gibbs Racing driver Denny Hamlin watched the movie just a few days after its release, and it’s safe to say the man is unimpressed. Well, unimpressed would be an understatement. He did not hide the fact that he did not enjoy the movie and criticized it. The 42-year-old surprised the fans with his take on the newly released Barbie movie.

Denny Hamlin tweeted, “Barbie might be the worst movie ever made. Not even Will Ferrell could save it.” He claimed even Will Ferrell, the four-time Emmy awards winner known for his comedy roles, could not save the film. Like every other movie, Barbie had mixed reviews.

The fans had mixed reactions to NASCAR driver Denny Hamlin’s view of the movie. “Only the Bill Elliott Barbie doll could’ve saved the movie,” was one of the replies. The user referred to the Bill Elliott doll, a Barbie Collector Edition. Produced by Mattel and designed by Sharon Zuckerman, it was released in 1999. Hence, one fan joked that only the Bill Elliott Barbie doll could have saved the film. However, it does not matter as Barbie rules the worldwide box office collection. 

“Don’t disrespect Peak Cinema like that, bro” and “Pretty sure you weren’t the target audience they were aiming for” were two comments. It is safe to say Hamlin’s tweet did not sit well with the fans, as they disagreed with him. However, another user said, “I’ll take your word for it. I can only imagine what absolute disaster it is.” Take a look at other reactions below.

Denny Hamlin’s Barbie movie review was quite surprising because the movie stands for promoting feminism. However, like Hamlin, Ben Shapiro, a conservative, showed his hatred for the film. Though people are entitled to their opinions, some views on the film are harsh and reflect one’s ideology.
