Summary
Reviewers say 'Birds of Prey' garners mixed feedback. Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn performance and dynamic action sequences receive high praise. Cathy Yan's energetic direction and Ewan McGregor's portrayal of Black Mask are commended. However, the film faces criticism for its disjointed plot, underdeveloped supporting characters, and inconsistent humor. Some find it messy and chaotic, with pacing and character development issues. Despite these flaws, many appreciate its bold approach and entertaining moments.
Featured reviews
Boring and forgettable
While Margot Robbie is a good Harley Quinn, the character was not given enough arc. The plot was predictable and mainstream, especially due to lack of a strong antagonist. The main antagonist, played by Ewan McGregor, was not developed and hence did not add significant value to the plot story. Although some of the fight scenes were entertaining, the film as a whole was truly forgettable.
A messy movie with some moments of fun
If you are not driven by the imperative need of understanding precisely what is happening in your movie, you might enjoy this psychedelic mix of disjointed cool visuals, great music, firecrackers, fragments of good acting...
Birds Of Prey is a mess presented in a messy way, it hardly holds together as a story but it offers moments of fun.
Bad Reviews Are False Read This from Someone Who Saw the Movie
I am a man and I saw this movie and absolutely loved it. It is so damn fun. It's bright and colorful The action and stunt sequences are awesome. The female characters crush it as well. So do the main male villains. This is really a breath of fresh air for the comic book movie community. GO SEE THIS MOVIE. it's fun, it's funny, it's in your face, and emotional. DC really has been on an amazing track and this excites me for the future and even for Gotham City Sirens
Fun movie!
Margot Robbie is the perfect Harley Quinn. Over all BOP was super fun. Great action and great music. Rosie Perez is meh at best. Ewan kills it per usual. I love that they made an R rated comic book film. DC has the balls to do it knowing it won't make as much $$$ which is probably why this is one of the better comic movies to come out in a while. 7/10🖤
This is not a "man hating" movie...
Is this a good movie? Not really. Is it a bad movie? Not at all. This is not a 10, but certainly nowhere near a 1. Don't get distracted by everyone saying that's it's a bad film. Go form your own opinion!
Like someone in these comment said, too bad some reviewers have a political agenda to push on this film accusing it of "man hating". It's a comic book movie based around a female. In comics, most of the villains are men... so, yeah, I don't know what people were expecting, but she has to beat man!
Anyways, personally I think the movie is bizarre, funny and quirky. Just like Harley Quinn. Also, Margot Robbie is perfect for the role.

Harley Quinn: We all know the saying, "Behind every successful man, there's a badass broad." Well, that was me.
- Crazy creditsAt the end of the closing credits, Harley is heard asking the audience if they're still around, and then decides to reward them with a secret about Batman. But before she can do so, the film ends.
