Birds of Prey starts off incredibly strong, with a fantastic introduction to Harley Quinn and her downfall post Joker break up, but the story starts to fall off the rails towards the end. It was hard to stay engaged in the movie with it jumping around so much due to the unreliable narrator that is Harley Quinn. Even though I get the direction they were going for, it just did not work for me. I really did not care about a couple characters in the main cast and found myself on really liking Harley and Black Canary, the other two felt underdeveloped. Ewan McGregor did a fantastic job as the villain in this film, every scene he captivated me with calm demeanor quickly spiraling into insanity, he stole the show. The fight choreography in this film was top notch too, with plenty of creative kills and interesting visuals to boot. I found myself mixed, where I like a part and got bored at others. Definitely inconsistent, but a fun watch none the less.
Verdict: Good
