Barbie has taken the box office by storm. Greta Gerwig’s plastic world of Barbie is enchanting audiences. It has raked in a staggering $70.5 million on its opening Friday. The film boasts a stellar ensemble, led by the captivating talents of Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Simu Liu, and America Ferrera, creating an irresistible cinematic experience. With its ingenious storyline, the movie breathes new life into discontinued Barbies and cleverly embarks on a journey to empower Ken and make him recognize his true value.

The anticipation among Robbie and her fellow cast members was palpable as they eagerly awaited the momentous kiss between the movie’s main leads. Surprisingly, no lip touches transpire between Ken and Barbie. Although the film beautifully portrays their deep connection and chemistry, Robbie couldn’t help but feel a tinge of disappointment. It turns out this was an unfulfilled item on her bucket list.

Beyond Robbie’s own disappointment, it was her close group of girlfriends who felt thoroughly perplexed by the lack of a kiss between the co-stars in a movie they had done together. They playfully questioned Robbie about how they could do an entire film side by side and not share a single on-screen kiss. They exclaimed, “What’s wrong with you? I thought you were kind of in charge on this one!’”

Amidst their laughter, the idea of Gosling trying to figure out how to kiss Barbie in the context of the film was seen as a humorous twist. The fans, too, joined in on the humor, flooding Twitter with their hilarious reactions to the one thing that Barbie couldn’t quite manage in the movie.

Fans take different notes on Margot Robbie’s on-screen kiss banter

Amidst the humor and lighthearted banter, some users approached the situation from a different perspective, pointing out that if the roles were reversed and a male actor had expressed disappointment over not having an on-screen kiss, it might have been viewed differently. Considering Ryan Gosling’s marital status as a devoted husband and father of two, these users raised valid concerns.

As the movie unfolded, a diverse array of viewers shared their reactions, and while some playfully teased about the absence of a kiss between the main leads, many others were thoroughly content with the movie’s ending.

Much like Gosling, who playfully took a hilarious note at the lack of an on-screen kiss, other users also joined in on the fun, reacting in a similar manner.

Amidst the playful chatter about the on-screen kiss, the movie stands strong. It captivates audiences with Greta Gerwig’s masterful direction and the stellar performances of Robbie and Gosling.
