It's a really bad movie, but I still went to see the heroine's face

The expectations for this film are mainly derived from the superhero Harley Quinn in DC Comics, that is, Harley Quinn.

On the short video platform, I frequently brushed the edited version of this movie, all kinds of praise, all kinds of so-called "burning", but Benbao said that he didn't get it at all. But in the end, I went to find the source and watched it, and I was a little disappointed. 2016's "Suicide Squad" gave Harley Quinn enough of the character charm, so last year Warner decided to make a solo movie for her, but in fact it was not as good as "Suicide Squad" with a box office of 133 million score.

Director Yan Yuqian is not only the first to try the superhero theme, but also the first Asian woman in Hollywood history to have the opportunity to direct a superhero blockbuster. So this time to her, it was a completely new and transcendent challenge.

But this movie has a big flaw: the narrative style jumps and can't find the point.

The entire narrative method is based on the rhythm of Harley Quinn's self-report, introducing each character. For example, the appearance of the black canary completely interrupted the progress of the previous story, restarted a paragraph, and introduced it in the form of a recap after a fight. Including the reason why there are too many clowns and female enemies, as well as the appearance of the huntress, etc., almost occupied a shooting skill of the whole film.

In short, the overall feeling is one word: "chaos"

The ability of the villain is also: the impression of "weak chicken"

    A movie ten times more feminine than Wonder Woman, you can watch it straight on your thighs! Li Zhongke will not lift it when he sees it, and straight men will nourish his stomach when he sees it
