Plot After the events of Suicide Squad, the Joker and Harley Quinn have fled back to Gotham. In the midst of their abusive relationship, the Joker breaks up with Harley and kicks her out of their house. Eventually, Harley is taken in by an old man named Doc who owns a Chinese restaurant in the city. After recovering emotionally, Harley goes out clubbing where she spends the night at a club owned by Roman Sionis, a sadistic gangster with cruel tendencies who masquerades as a bubbly nightclub owner. While at the club, Harley meets Dinah Lance, a burlesque singer who works for Roman. Harley becomes intoxicated and acts rowdy in the club, which results in her injuring Roman's driver. Roman's thugs drag Harley outside as a consequence, but Dinah saves her before violence can occur. Impressed by Dinah's skills, Roman appoints her as his new driver. Dinah drops Harley off at the latter's house and Harley decides to remodel her life in many ways, including cutting her hair and adopting a hyena from an exotic pet shop (who she names after Bruce Wayne. Harley also destroys Ace Chemicals, the place where she had pledged herself to Joker before truly becoming Harley Quinn. Meanwhile, Renee Montoya, a police detective in the GCPD, arrives at the scene of Ace Chemicals and determines that because Joker and Harley have broken up, the latter will be easy to capture and arrest. At the same time, Cassandra Cain, a young orphan who works for Sionis as a thief, steals a diamond for him; which has very important information. Roman sends Dinah and his top henchman, a psychotic serial killer named Victor Zsasz, to retrieve it. However, Cass double-crosses him and evades Sionis, hoping to sell the diamond to make more money. Cass is arrested and, out of desperation, swallows the diamond. The following day, Harley is intercepted by Montoya as she walks through Gotham. Harley flees the scene before being ambushed by some of Roman's men. Harley kills her opponents but is captured by other thugs entering the scene. Zsasz and Dinah tell Roman about Cassandra's status. It is shown that Roman likes to wear a black mask ? which is an art piece ? while torturing people as an intimidation tactic. Dinah and Zsasz also inform him that they captured Harley, and as a result, they have decided to not anticipate retaliation from the Joker, citing Harley's destruction of Ace Chemicals as proof the two have parted ways. Dinah texts Montoya about the situation with Cass, revealing in the process that she is a mole in Roman's organization. Breaking the fourth wall once more, Harley discloses to the audience that they are up-to-date on the events in the film. Harley then overhears Roman talking about the diamond, then offers to retrieve it from Cass if he spares her life. Roman agrees and allots Harley one day. Later, he puts a bounty on Cass's head "to make it more 'fun. Harley disguises herself and breaks into the GCPD to retrieve Cass. Harley breaks Cass out of the holding cells, and the two flee. Harley brings Cass to an abandoned antique shop where the latter is ordered to excrete the diamond to give it back to Roman. However, the two are ambushed by armed goons who are motivated by the bounty on Cass. Harley proceeds to battle and kills them after inhaling cocaine from a damaged bag. The bounty also attracts Helena Bertinelli, a vigilante known as the "crossbow killer. Helena targets mobsters in the hope of avenging her murdered family and also plans to use Cass with the intent to lure Roman out. Meanwhile, Dinah discovers that she has the metahuman ability to scream at a supersonic level. Dinah texts Montoya about the bounty on Cass, but the text is discovered by Zsasz, who informs Roman. Roman flies into a rage, as he strongly dislikes a subordinate not following orders, and he scratches and damages his face in the process. Harley and Cass decide to hide out at Harley's apartment. However, the apartment is bombed by people looking for Cass and it is revealed that Doc sold Harley out to Roman. Harley calls Roman and agrees to turn Cass over in exchange for protection from the bounty as a result of the lack of trust. Roman sends Zsasz and Dinah to retrieve Cass. Zsasz drugs Harley while showing that Roman didn't honor their deal, and Dinah tries to free Cass. However, Zsasz, having already known about Dinah's treachery, attacks her but is unexpectedly killed by Helena, who arrives at the amusement park. The women are all placed under arrest by Montoya, who Dinah had texted with regard to the situation. Harley manages to convince the women to work together to fight off Roman, even though the others were initially reluctant. The women use Harley's old gear and weapons to attack arriving hordes of Roman's goons, eventually emerging victorious. Cass is captured by Roman, and Harley pursues them to a nearby pier. Once Harley catches up with them, Cassandra puts a grenade in Roman's suit, killing him. In the aftermath of destroying Roman's empire, Montoya, Dinah and Helena start the Birds of Prey with the money from the accounts of the diamond while Harley and Cassandra pawn it and start their own company together. In a post-credits scene, Harley talks about the new Batman film and before the trailer starts, the screen cuts to black.

Of course there is a possibility that Quinn is a supporting character and they are mis-representing the movie in previews, which could be good for fans of the comic but bad overall. That said, the current spots are actually listing it as "Harley Quinn in Birds of Prey. First time I recall marketing referring to a character instead of the star, but I guess Robbie isn't as well known as the character at this point. I actually think a Quinn solo movie would work, but they would pretty much have to go full on Deadpool with its style to make it work. For all I know that may be what they do with this movie. 01-20-20, 10:55 AM I think I read a while back that she is going to break the fourth wall in this. She probably could support her own film I agree. Not even really sure why they did this as an ensemble movie truthfully.

A lot of people seemed to love that movie when it debuted, so i won't be expecting much from this to say the least. On the plus side, it surely cant be any worse than what came before. I just don't find the Harley Quin character all that interesting.

3 / 5 stars 3 out of 5 stars. Mesmerising Margot Robbie returns as the hyperactive supervillain in a crass but weirdly watchable spin-off from Suicide Squad Kick-ass variant on nymphet … Margot Robbie in Birds of Prey. Photograph: Claudette Barius W atching Birds of Prey, a line from the recent Fox News sexual harassment drama Bombshell occurred to me ? when Kate McKinnon looks deep into Margot Robbie s eyes over cocktails and says, wonderingly: “Thats quite some face youve got there. ” And it is. Robbies capacity for pop-eyed, crazy-cyborg grinning is certainly put to work in this weirdly watchable hyperactive supervillain comedy, an ADHD-aspartame overload written by Christina Hodson and directed by Cathy Yan. Its a spin-off from DCs little-loved Suicide Squad, in which Robbie plays Harley Quinn, clothed in an eccentric kick-ass variant on nymphet: Lolita meets Cynthia Rothrock. She was the inamorata of Jared Letos Joker in that film and now returns as an antiheroine in her own right. Harley and the Joker have broken up (he dumped her) and, in a rage-filled search for emotional closure, Harley steals a gasoline tanker and drives it into the chemical factory that was the site of their first romantic encounters ? jumping clear at the last moment. The resulting explosion and its aftermath precipitate a meeting of five women from all over Gotham who operate on different sides of the law: 80s-style cop Renee Montoya (Rosie Perez) mob heiress turned crossbow killer Helena Bertinelli (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) nightclub singer and martial arts enthusiast Dinah Lance (Jurnee Smollett-Bell) and pickpocket Cassandra Cain (Ella Jay Basco. Harley is to find herself in conflict with all of them but is also, in a way, in league with them prima inter pares. The quest for a mega-valuable diamond animates the jittery, fragmented narrative, which zooms around all over the place and also brings in hideous club-owner and rich criminal Roman Sionis ( Ewan McGregor) who among his many sins is a culturally insensitive collector of African art. Hodsons script, with its insistent voiceover, narrative shuffling, wackily choreographed punch-ups and exotic villains introduced in surtitle freezeframe, is a cheeky borrowing from Kill Bill (with one assailants resemblance to Frida Kahlo incidentally coming in for some derisive commentary) and I enjoyed the influence of screenwriter Shane Black (the creator of Lethal Weapon and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang) in the description of Montoya, particularly that supremely ominous moment when she is told to hand in her gun and her badge. As Harley sagely puts it: “No cop ever gets stuff done until after theyve been suspended. ” As well as the DC origins, there is also an echo of Frank Millers Sin City graphic novels, filmed by Robert Rodriguez. This film is a blitz of bad taste, a cornucopia of crass, and it is weirdly diverting ? more than you might expect, given the frosty way Suicide Squad was received critically ? and engagingly crazy. Watching it feels cheerfully excessive and unwholesome, like smoking a cigarette and eating a chocolate bar at the same time. ? Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) is released in Australia on 6 February and in the UK and the US on 7 February.
Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) is pulled into the hunt for street hustler Cassandra (Ella Jay Basco) by gangster Roman Sionis (Ewan McGregor) along with singer Dinah (Jurnee Smollett-Bell) vigilante Huntress (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) and detective Renee Montoya (Rosie Perez. At the behest of star and producer Margot Robbie, the working title for (deep breath) Birds Of Prey (And The Fantabulous Emancipation Of One Harley Quinn) was ‘Fox Force Five. For the uninitiated, ‘Fox Force Five is Mia Wallaces ( Uma Thurman) never-aired TV pilot in Pulp Fiction concerning five female secret agents each with a distinct identity and skill ? a knife thrower, a kung fu master, a demolition expert and a French girl whose “speciality was sex”. Its a particularly apt part-time alias for Robbies passion project, the first big-screen outing for DCs all-women superhero squad. Because Birds Of Prey not only shares the DNA of a girl gang who can kick your sorry ass ? Cathy Yan s film also boasts some of the subversive and rockabilly spirit of QTs 94 classic. It doesnt all work, but its a gaudy, muddled, mostly entertaining glitter-grenade celebration of just how women can fuck shit up. Perhaps the first rug-pull is that it isnt strictly a Birds Of Prey flick at all. Its a moving-on-after-a-break-up movie, a Marriage Story with punch-ups. Quickly recapping the events of Suicide Squad in animated form, we quickly learn Robbies Harley Quinn and Joker have broken up ? she publically updates her relationship status by driving a truck into Ace Chemicals, the plant where she pledged herself to the clown prince of crime ? and the film frenetically establishes her trying to cope on her own; buying a hyena she calls Bruce (after Wayne) roller derbying, her partying antics captured in one long shot like a coked-up 1917. The film sets up the question of who is Harley without Mr J? The answer lies with a motley crew of diverse women. Its a fun, fidgety, breathless start, but dont expect it to settle any time soon. The film is narrated by Harley Quinn so unravels with all the logic youd expect from her cracked psyche. Taking a cue from her protagonist, screenwriter Christina Hodson ( Bumblebee) begins to fracture the narrative, drip-feeding plot points and introducing us to the major players; Renee Montoya ( Perez) a detective belittled in her job and hooked on the dialogue and tropes of 80s cop shows, is investigating a hit by crossbow-wielding assassin Huntress ( Winstead) Dinah Lance ( Smollett-Bell) a singer who goes by the monicker Black Canary and is capable of smashing martini glasses with her voice, powerfully warbles in the nightclub of Gotham crime lord Roman Sionis ( McGregor) and then there is Cassandra Cain (Basco) a streetwise pickpocket who becomes the fulcrum for the story. Its so much fun when the group finally come together, it feels like a misstep not getting them together sooner. Its not, as Harley might say, poifect. Its structurally chaotic. There are flashbacks within flashbacks and comedy title-cards (“4 Minutes Ago”) but the time-shifting dissipates momentum in the middle stretch ? you never get the sense that Yan, whose only previous feature is absurdist satire Dead Pigs, has a firm grip ?on the narrative. McGregors antagonist ? who runs the town and has a penchant for both African art and peeling the face off ?rivals ? nibbles rather than chews scenery; he isnt big and flamboyant enough to pose a genuine threat. Yan and Hodson throw a ton of ideas at the screen, most of which stick: Harley interacting with her own voiceover, Marilyn Monroe fantasies, direct stares to camera, and a fun running gag about the grievances every character has with Ms Quinn ? the most exquisite delivers a terrific Frida Kahlo gag. Conceived with John Wick s Chad Staheski and his stunt team 87Eleven, the action sequences are muscular and confident ? a creative baseball bat frenzy to Ram Jams ‘Black Betty (bam-a-lam) a fight in a fun house that has the feel of 60s Batman ? but Yan still manages to insert some personality in there: as Harley double teams with Black Canary, keep em peeled for a hair-tie handoff that any woman in a fight would relate to. Its a lovely touch that would never occur to the David Ayers of this world. Its a film forged in the age of #MeToo. TimesUp but wears any messaging lightly. This is just a group of women supporting ?each other, getting things done. Its so much fun when the group finally come together, it feels like a misstep not getting them together sooner and more often. Save Harley, the characters arent deeply drawn but they are winningly played: Smollett-Bell is authentically hard-as-nails, Winstead is funny as an assassin who takes umbrage that people get her superhero name wrong, and Perez reminds you she is not in nearly enough movies. But the MVP is Robbie, who lends Harley charming quirk and believable menace, hinting at Harleys inner life without reams of dialogue. When shes on screen Birds Of Prey has the impact of a baseball bat to the head. Its messy, with a middle section that sags, but Birds Of Prey has vibrancy, anarchy and balls to spare. Harley and Joker are dead. Long live Harley Quinn.
