Even Barbie and Roger, two of her friends who came here, were assimilated. The smart Joanna slowly discovered the truth of the matter. It turned out that the men in this town are far inferior to their wives in career. With the help of Mike (Christopher Walken) through Mad Scientist, he implants a chip in his wife's brain. Make them perfect wives who can get out of the hall, enter the kitchen, and obey their husbands.

When Joanna swung the candlestick at Mike in self-defense, the ending was unexpected. It turned out that all this carefully planned is Mike's wife. Because of her husband's betrayal, she wants to plan a world where men and women conform to tradition, and where men and women love each other. A man is like a man, and a woman is charming and cherished in the world.
The film talks about a very important point is the equality of men and women. The men in the film are inferior to their wives in both life and career, which just reflects the phenomenon of today's society. In people's minds, there has always been a male-dominated idea. Especially in the feudal society of the past, it has always been the male leader outside the female leader, and the female is even more virtuous. With the development of society, women can also receive higher education and work like men, and achieve equality between men and women.
In every field, it is the same as, or even surpasses, men. For example, in recent years, the top students in the college entrance examination are all girls. This has greatly affected the self-esteem of men. In the film, the men would rather transform their wives into a perfect wife than let their self-esteem suffer. to the blow. In society, there are many people who believe that it is unacceptable that women are stronger than men. Once women surpass men, they will be discriminated against, looked down upon, or even called "soft rice", etc. Even many women recognize this.
However, to truly realize equality between men and women is not just a formal call that can be changed.
In this film, Joanna did not fully express her love for her husband Walter. There are too few scenes in Joanna's expression of Walter's love for her husband, and there are many mistakes. For example, at the end of the film, it is mentioned that the wife's brain was implanted with a chip, but why did Barbie's hand touch the fire on the stove after being modified; the wife would spit out cash. This is also the regret of the film.
