Review of Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) (2020) by Bmn667 — 08 Feb 2020

I have no problem with different interpretations of Harley Quinn, and this one wasn't too bad aside from her needing more unnecessary violent crazy behavior baked in, but the entire rest of the cast had no reason to be in the film.

If she needed help she should have gone to Ivy and that would have felt much more appropriate and focused to the film. The entire film felt choppy, the action scenes were frankly embarrassing, no character development aside from Harley (which still could have used some work), the plot was men are bad but I love men but they're the worst idk.

This was an embarrassing experience and Harley deserved so so SO much more for her first leading performance film. I can only hope the sequel has NO Birds of Prey in it and the story revolves more around Harley discovering this yet to be villainized Ivy who's just coming to terms with her powers and they team up to get revenge on Ivy's enemies who turned her into Poison Ivy.

I think most people would've enjoyed that story more than this one.
