Cathy Yan directs standalone sequel to Suicide Squad.
Margot Robbie - Harley Quinn
Mary Elizabeth Winstead - Helena Bertinelli/Huntress
Jurnee Smollett-Bell - Dinah Lance/Black Canary
Rosie Perez - Renee Montoya
Ewan McGregor - Roman Sionis/Black Mask
Ella Jay Basco - Cassandra Cain
Chris Messina - Victor Zsasz
Summary
Following events of previous shit storm, Harley has been dumped by Mr. J and life is a struggle without the Jester of Genocide by her side.
Of Joker's many aliases, I like that one.
Roman Sionis sends burlesque dancer Dinah and vicious enforcer Victor Zsasz to retrieve a diamond embedded with the account numbers of the Bertinelli family fortune.
However, young pickpocket Cassandra steals and swallows said stone.
Rather predictably, Sionis places a bounty on Cass's head.
Harley teams up with Dinah, alcoholic cop Renne and the vengeful Helena to protect Cass and ultimately bring Sionis's criminal empire down.
Not Harley recommended
The Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn is at its best when female warriors are kicking ass during flamboyant, and impressively choreographed action sequences.
But...
Chaotic story made my head spin and while everything about Robbie is great, talented support are given minimal characterisation, which is a real shame.
McGregor's narcissistic villain (who specialises in face-peeling), is given precious little to do.
At Founders Pier (possibly a mash-up of Founders Island and Gotham Pier), baddie goes out with a bang.
Christina Hodson's fuck happy script is not sharp or witty, just spectacularly dull.
Deadpool this definitely ain't.
Considering Birds of Prey aren't officially formed until virtually last minute, I'm confused why this is called so?
As end credits are about to wrap, Harley teases a secret about Batman, but narration abruptly ends mid-sentence.
Subject to change of course, but Gotham City Sirens will apparently conclude trilogy.
Pardon me for not jumping up and down in excitement.
