Birds of Prey (2020) Review : Does This Even Needed in the DCEU?

This film in a nutshell: "Sob sob look at me I'm an opressed woman and all men are evil but btw! Let's dress up like hookers and kill innocent people on our rampage because that's women empowerment!"

Seriously nothing works in this.

The story and acting was messy and cringy, music was out of place, and the characters are nothing like their counterparts in comics or TV series. Huntress and Black Canary in Arrow are hundred times better. Black Mask was a disgrace. Seriously why did Ewan even agreed to this.

After many achievements by DC in 2019 with the Oscar-winning Joker, a fresh and unique take on superhero lives by Doom Patrol, HBO's Watchmen, and the TV mega-crossover that is Arrowverse Crisis on Infinite Earths and a good family movie Shazam, Birds of Prey was a bad way to start 2020.

Ah, maybe 2020 is so jinxed by it that is why this year sucks so much.

But I think Wonder Woman 1984 would be good. Hopefully.

4/10
