The Verge calls the movie a:

“Bold vision built around the idea of deconstructing some of the more complex realities of what Barbie represents in order to tell a truly modern, feminist story.”

The Wrap declares:

“Once an equal parts fascinating and controversial Mattel toy, both loved and hate - a tiny-waisted, vacuously smiling, slender doll designed like a straight-male fantasy - is now a complicated feminist symbol of empowerment...”

NBC News notes:

"As Barbie makes her way in the real world, she must grapple with the overwhelming emotion and discomfort of being human, as well as a patriarchal system that would make her a secondary character in her own world."
