This 2020 Margot Robbie-inspired movie 'Birds of Prey' was about average in my book. Focusing on Harley Quinn's life post-Joker and her wild adventures leading to the formation of the 'Birds of Prey'; it does focus rather spectacularly on the colorful (literally) and wild exploits of Robbie; however, it still feels rather superficial and orchestrated; without a deeper feel and understanding of the personalities and emotions of the characters involved. It does throw up a bunch of interesting characters around Robbie; such as nightclub singer Dinah Lance, youthful thief Cassandra Cain and the spellbinding 'Huntress'... but in the end; even this colourful motley crew of characters can't quite lift an otherwise average show.
