Barbie IMAX Re-Release: 3 Unseen Highlights
Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” film, originally released in July, has taken the world by storm with its visually stunning and subtly subversive charm. Grossing over a billion dollars and earning critical acclaim, the movie is now back in IMAX for a limited one-week run, treating fans to post-credits scenes brimming with humor and improvisation.
Among these scenes, three gems shine bright. First, Ken, known for his dream ballet performance, surprises audiences with an impromptu, Ken-ified rendition of Cyndi Lauper’s “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.” The unexpected twist on the classic song adds a delightful touch to the film’s humor.
Another standout moment involves a twist in Barbie’s romantic future. Will Ferrell’s character, the toy company CEO, tries to set Barbie up with various Mattel products, including Hot Wheels and even the Magic 8 Ball. But when the suggestion of “Thomas the Tank Engine” comes up, Ferrell’s humorous inquiry, “How do you feel about trains, sweetie?” sends the Barbies, including Margot Robbie, into fits of laughter.
The IMAX re-release also includes bloopers, outtakes, and quirky moments that offer a glimpse into the cast’s remarkable chemistry. With these unseen highlights, “Barbie” continues to captivate audiences and solidify its status as a must-see cinematic gem.
