Ben Shapiro was so mad after he watched Barbie he set a doll on fire.
Yes, you read that right.
A grown man set a doll on fire because he didn't like a movie.
In a 43-minute review of the film, Shapiro said he was forced to go watch the 'piece of dogsh*t' movie that pretty much everyone else on the planet has thoroughly enjoyed.

"Let me begin with my generalised assessment of the movie. This movie is not just a piece of s**t. This movie is a flaming piece of dogs**t, piled atop an entire dumpster on fire, piled atop a landfill filled with dogs**t," he said.
"It is one of the worst films I have ever seen, on every possible level it is a horrific movie."
The 39-year-old said that although the outfits were nice, the movie was made for 'mothers and their eight-year-old daughters'.
"Conceptually the movie is a s**tshow," he continued.
"The basic sort of premise of the film, politically speaking, is that men and women are on two sides of the divide, and they hate each other.
"And literally, the only way you can have a happy world is if the women ignore the men and the men ignore the women. That seems to be the final outcome of this film.
"I was trying to separate this into problems with plot and problems with character and problems with the politics and so on. But they’re all intertwined because the thing is just a mess. It doesn’t make any sense. Plot-wise, it makes no sense. Character-wise, it makes no sense."
He then threw a Barbie doll into a bin on top of some other Barbie dolls and set them on fire.
Shapiro's dramatic reaction to a fun movie about a doll has been met with bewilderment and laughter online.
One person wrote: “If you put together a crack team of 11 of the world’s [cringiest] incels and gave them an unlimited budget and access to any resource they required, they will still not be able to out-cringe the cringe Ben Shapiro just cringed out of his little baby body."
Another added: “Ben Shapiro burning Barbie dolls is the logical follow on from Tucker Carlson getting p**sed off with an M&M character."
While someone else pointed out that Shapiro went to see the movie he hated dressed like... Ken.
The film, which is directed by Greta Gerwig and stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, has a 90 per cent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
It grossed more than $350 million at the global box office during its opening weekend.
But hey, Shapiro thinks it's 'a piece of dogs**t'.
