How are these all yeses? I’m ready to be canceled over this.
She’s supposed to be an arch criminal who gave the Joker all his “best ideas” ... but all she does once she’s alone is rob a grocery store and blow up a chemical plant? I want to be shown, not “told,” she’s bad ass. And I certainly don’t want to be told in voiceover. 😭
Birds of Prey is a glorious film with a killer soundtrack and some wonderful directing/fight choreography. Morally questionable, deeply satisfying and full of roller skating, bad guy punching, super hero action.
Watching it, I was reminded of how it felt to watch Tank Girl, Whip It and Ocean’s Thirteen.
For me, BoP is the funniest of all the recent superhero movies. Yes, funnier than the GotGs and Deadpool, which I loved, but all of those featured at least one ‘UGH’ moment of the film forgetting/ not caring that women were in the audience.
I really dislike the way people are framing the release of Birds Of Prey. I keep seeing articles such as "What went wrong?" which to me feels like they're missing the big picture, either intentionally or unintentionally.

What went wrong?
• R Rated, which usually don't perform as well in box office
• Marketing was limited. Who'll see it if you don't market it?
• Released at a time of year when movies don't perform well
• SnyderFans vowed to hate this movie before it came out

What went right.
• It made 33M Domestic, but already earned its budget internationaly.
• The highest grossing film of the weekend, despite low turnout.
• Damn good, solid, fun, action and crime movie. (See it)
