Barbie: Several characters appear designed more to tick diversity boxes and represent political symbols than to serve the narrative organically, which disrupts character depth and coherence.
The Break-Up: Characters appear motivated by personal flaws and relationship dynamics, not tokenistic representation or demographic checkboxes.
