It’s a pretty decent flick that’s going to suffer because of:

A) no big name stars
B) no big name characters
C) an all female cast
D) “Suicide Squad” backlash (a la “Solo” after “TFA”/“TLJ”)

Ewan McGregor is the bad guy. He is a big name.

I had the same reaction. Also, I was disappointed in the fight scenes. Some of it was cool but they had plenty of that 'watch this 90 pound girl beat the shit out of this 250 pound muscleman because grrrlpower' junk.

He was actually talking too much.

What interested me with Birds of Prey is that it's a feminist film. It is very finely written. There is in the script a real look on misogyny, and I think we need that. We need to be more aware of how we behave with the opposite sex. We need to be taught to change.

“Brilliant. It’s about time that we’ve got this female made, female driven, superhero movie. It’s a really powerful film. It was just exciting to be part of. A film that covers some of the misogynist nonsense that you ladies have to deal with on a daily basis.”

Trying to save shitty movies by pissing off half your audience continues to be tried, but it's not usually a smart move.

And, now, they're changing the movie's title in the middle of its run.

Birds of Prey Changes Title At Movie Theaters

Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) is changing its name to Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey on all theater chain sites after a struggle to fly at the box office in its opening weekend...

They shoulda called it "Wait for Netflix" because that's what everyone immediately thought when they heard about it.

It's suffering because...

It couldn't maintain the quirky/cutesy energy and incorporate it properly into the story

The fight scenes were uneven and did not take full advantage of Robbie's considerable physical talents

Mood and style was not balanced with enough plot and character development

The group was introduced and brought together clumsily

The narration by Harley Quinn was overdone and it was cheaply used to patch over weaknesses in storytelling

Think that was to shorten the name to make it easier to order Tix online. The actual movie title hasn't changed

Ha. Good point. I guess what I'm trying to say is I don't like when chicks get old as much as when they are 21-29.
