Birds of Prey, and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn (2020)

February 6, 2020 – Birds. Of. Prey. ATFEOOHQ. Well, I definitely enjoyed it! It was fun as hell XD. A couple things I hoped would at least be there did happen, so, good good. There was a lot going on but it all eventually came together. I enjoyed the characterization of all the characters. There was one thing about Cassandra Cain that I hoped they’d do, but eh. There was one small allusion to it.

There was one reference to Suicide Squad, it’s short but obvious. I’m not sure how many people in the theater caught it, but I definitely noticed. There was also slight mention of all of her past (SS included) real quick.

I also enjoyed the music! Well placed. There were a lot of different than usual renditions of well known songs that it took me an extra second to recognize.

It was a fun movie. I enjoyed it more than SS definitely. Oh and the intro was enjoyable XD.

I feel like if there were a sequel to this, the characters would be able to be more themselves and I’d be happy to watch it. And it wouldn’t necessarily need Harley in it. Considering the end. But we’ll see what’s up with Harley in The Suicide Squad anyway (I can only assume it takes place after this).

There are no mid-credit nor end-credit scenes. There is an end-credit audio clip, but you really don’t need to be there for it. It’s just poking fun. Think the end of Ferris Buller but not like what Deadpool did with it.

Also this was the last movie I saw in theaters before the pandemic started.
