The real lesson of tonight’s 🎥 rental—Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)—is that maybe these movies need to be made by people with joy in their heart rather than people with a ponderous sense of their own self-importance. (I’d pay a premium for a Harley Quinn audio commentary track to Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, especially if she were to just give up and go off on a lengthy tangent on absolutely anything else.) Hands down the best of this particular corporate franchise, Birds of Prey tells me to follow Margot Robbie wherever she wants to go in—and with—the DC movie universe.
