What Birds of Prey lacks in story it makes up for — mostly — in humor and action.
Margot Robbie single-handedly saves this movie from toilet of underachieving movies. And let’s face it, no one is going to see this movie for any other reason than Margot’s wickedly perfect personification of the pseudo protagonist — Harley Quinn.
The entire script revolves around giving Robbie ample opportunities to flash her psychotic smile and primal violence. And she does that exceedingly well.

“Who?” You ask.
“OMG! You call yourself an action/superhero movie fan and you don’t know who Jonathan Eusebio is?” Okay, I honestly didn’t either until 15 seconds ago. I had to look up the stunt coordinator for this movie because it was brilliant. Harley Quinn’s fighting style perfectly befits her personality. Turns out, you’ve seen much of Jonathan Eusebio’s work. He was the stunt/fight coordinator for John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, Deadpool 2, Black Panther, Fast & Furious 8, John Wick: Chapter 2, Doctor Strange, etc.

The Academy Awards snobbishly don’t recognize categories for stunt coordinators and stunt people in their awards, but they absolutely should. But hey, Jonathan Eusebio, I got your back. I think you deserve the first “Kapow”. (Award for best stunt coordination in a feature film given out by RunPee.)
However, despite the brilliance of the stunt work and fighting choreography, the screenplay for this movie lacks cohesion. It relies on voice-over flashbacks to provide the bulk of every character’s back story, and comes off as cartoonish. It’s not awful, but it’s far from good.
Grade: B
About The Peetimes: We only found two Peetimes, but they’re both good. Neither Peetime we chose has any action scenes or much comedy.

My bladder thanks you so much!! App works great for telling u when and for how long you have a pee break! I didn’t use the timer function so the dialog in the movie was a great clue as to when to go. I also liked the info about each movie to know whether there was any extra scenes during or after the credits. Nothing worse than waiting for all the credits and then no extra scene.
