Luckily, in the capable hands of producer and star Margot Robbie, director Cathy Yan, and writer Christina Hodson, Birds of Prey allows us to see Harley at her most liberated a trickster goddess who undoubtedly creates more messes than she cleans up, but one who is no patsy, despite spending years in thrall to her green-haired puddinРІР‚в„ў. It doesnРІР‚в„ўt reinvent the wheel - especially in the wake of the fourth-wall breaking Deadpool franchise and the swagger of Guardians of the Galaxy - but itРІР‚в„ўs still a ballsy, biting blast that feels like a two-hour sugar high without the crash.Р”Р„fter being underwhelmed by the initial trailers, and frustrated by the muddled mess of Suicide Squad (which squandered one of the most entertaining and bonkers concepts in DCРІР‚в„ўs canon), I worried that Birds of Prey would end up falling into the same trap as the likes of Elektra and Catwoman, slapping a pandering РІР‚Сљgirl powerРІР‚Сњ narrative onto a paper-thin plot and trusting that skintight costumes would distract from how hollow it all felt. Much like its central character, Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) is a riot - an anarchic glitterbomb of lunacy that boasts some of the most inventive fight sequences ever seen in a comic book movie, even if it often has a tendency to undermine its momentum just when itРІР‚в„ўs kicking into high gear.
