5: 09 Because I'm inclined toward nitpickery, trained by the League of Assassins feels a little inaccurate, since she was solely trained by her father. Though it'd be later revealed it was for the League, technically. Further nitpickery: as far as the canon is concerned, last I checked, she didn't become Orphan later, her life and history were retconned [by a glorified fanfiction writer] to have only ever been Orphan.
Yes, I know, no one cares about the character, but there it is.
While I would have preferred Cass' DCEU introduction fall in line with her better origin, Basco did a fine job with the material, and at least they didn't adapt Tynion's mistakes.

I want to see Jared Leto get a chance! Would be great if they got together again and maybe be targeting poison ivy with Harley changing sides at the end. That way you get the Harley and joker bonnie and Clyde then abuse and toxicity cycle, breaking away again and ending with Harley with Ivy and joker disappeared (then dc can decide what to do with him) Then everyone will be happy and it would be comic book accurate! D. C. hire me Ive got this!

Gave this movie a shot thinking it was going to be bad cause everyone only said it was bad. The only reason why I watched it was cause my sister had it in the background. Damn was this movie great. It's amazing energetic action comic book movie fun. Form your own opinions and check out this movie. It has the same amount of fun R rated action as movies like kill bill and baby driver. Do not listen to the haters.

It was okay not the best not the worst. I had no expectations coming in so it was okay. Im gonna say I didnt care about any other character beside Harley since I just didnt seem much character in anyone else. And the movie plot was not much for me. Which would be fine but if they add more character to the other birds. But I do love the visuals. It was very beautiful. And the fight scenes were great.

So, this is a pretty good list, but I have to disagree that not having Oracle in this movie was wrong. While I think it'd be great to have Barbara Gordon in a future Birds of Prey movie, her character's back story is way too complex to just fast forward through for sake of having her in this film. I'm looking forward to see how Harley Quinn's story continues in James Gunn's The Suicide Squad.

3: 35 You say that. Then watch the video where she brakes a guys levels back an forth. Not Truly evil. Unless your a male human! 3: 57 NO! She doesn't! The writers ADDED LGBT into the stories after 1999 From THAT POINT new writers with an Agenda tried to focus on the LGBT ideal. Anything done after that is NOT cannon.

0: 59 No. That's a lie. None of their equipment or costumes are in line. They don't even hide their identities. 2: 12 Incorrect again. They still had a relationship. You an the DC movie series is jumping around so much we haven't even got them together yet an you are already saying they broke up. This is a problem.

I loved it! Margot introduced me to Harley and owns the role! I loved SS but they cut Jareds role too much. The only problem with BOP was that it was obvious that Harley was separate from them instead of fighting with them. Heath Ledgers Joker would have fit perfect!

I guess it made sense switching Cassandra's backstory, her and Huntress having similar backstories and all. It'd have been confusing to have two orphans becoming assassins. Although, it could have been some funny lines poking fun at how common that is with DC.

2: 47 Who. Have we all been introduced to this character? Oh We haven't. lets start the battle of super heroes next movie then. You see how the time line is completely messed up? What they should do is introduce ALL the heroes FIRST an not jump in to epic movies.

The part where they called her a psychiatrist instead of a psychologist was definitely one point that was wrong, but there are a lot of other good points, too, though. (And I have that New 52 roller derby Harley cover comic! )

A few corrections. Harley killed kids before. She actually plants bombs in game systems after breaking up with the joker on her journey to find herself and ends up killing at least 200 people with no remorse.

Saw it yesterday. I had some fears about it but I really enjoyed it. It was funny, characters were cool and fight scenes looked really good. I definitely suggest it, it's much better than Suicide Squad

I think it would have been better without Harley. Focus on the birds of prey. End the movie almost the same way but have Montoya take huntresses bike after black mask when Canary clears everyone out.

I thought it would be a fun show, but the humor fell flat and her voice overs had an irritating accent that after awhile became painful to listen to. I really wanted to like this.

Even in the movie she is not part of the team. It tells the origin on how the birds of prey was build. I just wish they could do the real cassandra cain and also bat girl

They went with a different version of birds of prey from the multiverse because the birds of prey with oracle has Dinah Lances black canary and Helena Waynes huntress

Ummmm I guess we will forget Harley creating a bunch of free kids gaming systems, giving them out to all the children in Gotham, and then BLOWING THEM ALL UP?

They need to make a Gotham City Sirens movie with Catwoman, Harley Quinn, Batgirl and Poison Ivy with The Joker and Maybe the Riddler as the villains.

I got really dissapointed when Cass actually spoke (in the original, cass never learned how to speak due her lack of social education and dyslexia)

They did do something wrong with black canary. She looks nothing like she was in the comics. She is supposed to have blond hair and wear all black.

I used to only like Marvel and I never would watch anything DC related.
I gave in when I found out that Ruby Rose would be playing Batwoman

I would have really enjoyed a signature black and red outfit. The movie was good but it didn't feel like a true DC or Harley Quinn movie.

The hell you mean? I don't see any wrongs. Birds of prey and any other DC/Marvel movie doesn't always need to follow the comics.
