Barbie & Oppenheimer

The film industry has seen significant growth this year, following the remarkable success of the Mario Bros Project. Now, facing a new challenge with Barbie and Oppenheimer, the industry continues to thrive. However, both movies have individually achieved resounding success at the box office.

Oppenheimer premiered at Le Grand Rex in Paris on July 11, 2023, and was released in theaters in the United States and the United Kingdom on July 21, 2023, by the production company "Universal Pictures." Its simultaneous release with Barbie led to the phenomenon known as "Barbenheimer" on social media, encouraging audiences to experience both films as a double feature. The movie grossed $174 million worldwide and received critical acclaim, especially for its cast, screenplay, and visual effects.

On the other hand, the true winner is Barbie. Barbie premiered at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles on July 9, 2023, and was released in theaters in the United States on July 21, 2023, by the production company "Warner Bros Pictures." The film received largely positive reviews from critics and has already grossed over $400 million worldwide.

The "Barbenheimer" phenomenon will remain active in the next 15 days, further supporting both works of art to achieve their goals effectively. Ultimately, what matters is that international cinema continues to thrive and captivate audiences, cherishing the Seventh Art. We hope that both films will continue to rake in millions more for the benefit of the International Film industry.
