Since it premiered in July, Barbie has earned Golden Globes, Oscars, Grammys, and smashed records at the box office, earning over a reported $1.4 billion and counting around the world.
The Greta Gerwig-directed blockbuster starring Margot Robbie as Barbie and Ryan Gosling as Ken quickly became the year’s hottest film, accompanied by a hit soundtrack with chart-topping tracks from Dua Lipa, Ice Spice and Nicki Minaj, and Gosling himself, who performed “I’m Just Ken” at the 2024 Academy Awards. (Billie Eilish even scored a second Oscar trophy for Best Original Song for “What Was I Made For?”)

Where to Watch Barbie Online
Barbie officially became available to stream online back in September, a few months after its premiere. The movie has since earned nine Golden Globes nominations, including Best Picture – Musical or Comedy, and nods for Gerwig, Robbie, and Gosling. Barbie won two trophies during the ceremony, including Best Original Song for Billie Eilish’s “What Was I Made For?”
“I was very, very miserable and depressed at the time,” Eilish said during her acceptance speech. “And writing that song kind of saved me a little bit. A year later, and here we are, and it’s really surreal. I feel incredibly, incredibly lucky and grateful.” Barbie also won the award for Best Cinematic and Box Office Achievement. Now fans can watch the hit film on Prime Video and Max.
You can buy it digitally on UHD for $19.99 or rent it for $5.99 on Prime Video. After you rent it, you have 48 hours to watch the film. (And if you’re hoping for an at-home “Barbenheimer” double feature, good news: Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer is also now available to buy on Prime Video.) Watch Barbie on Prime Video and Max

“It’s definitely not a bad thing to turn a potential franchise, whether built on a line of dolls or not, into something that refuses to dumb itself down or pander to the lowest common denominator,” David Fear wrote in Rolling Stone‘s Barbie review, which described the film as the “most subversive blockbuster of the 21st century.”
Fear continues: “And the victory that is Gerwig, Robbie, and Gosling — along with a supporting cast and crew that revel in the idea of joining a benefic Barbie party — slipping in heady notions about sexualization, capitalism, social devolution, human rights and self-empowerment, under the guise of a lucrative, brand-extending trip down memory lane? That’s enough to make you giddy. We weren’t kidding about the ‘subversive’ part above; ditto the ‘blockbuster.’ A big movie can still have big ideas in 2023. Even a Barbie movie. Especially a Barbie movie.”

$27.35
“I don’t read a lot of scripts, but it was just everything I want in a movie,” Barbie the Album producer Mark Ronson previously told Rolling Stone. “I was like, ‘If I don’t get this gig, this is gonna be my favorite movie of the year.'”
If you’re looking for a more exclusive edition of Barbie the Album, the pros at record club Vinyl Me Please, a vinyl subscription service, have released Barbie The Album (VMP Designer Edition) and Barbie The Album (VMP Kendom Edition) online.
