So I saw the movie yesterday and I've gotta say that I was pretty disappointed. I've been a DC fan for almost 15 years and Harley Quinn is one of my favorite characters. This movie didn't really do her justice. She was constantly on edge and very snappy. Now I understand that this was a different take on her but since it was a Bruce Timm movie I had hoped to see his version of her (gleeful, naughty, goofy and aggressive when needed). I understand that this was aftermath Harley, she's been through a lot and will not let anyone walk over her. I suppose that's realistic. But it wasn't enough for me to truly enjoy the movie. This was because of multiple reasons.
The script writing was meager and kept going from serious to gag. I wasn't sure what this movie wanted to be. It could have been both but it just switched it up too fast and often. The plot was pretty generic and there were a lot of OOC moments for some of the characters. I could have given this movie much more credit but sadly the abrupt and anti-climatic ending made me seal the deal. This movie was okay, not great.
To prevent being a complete sour puss I will add what I did like about the movie. I loved the animation style, it made me feel very nostalgic.Some of the jokes were pretty funny and I did enjoy the fight scenes.There's also a fair amount of easter eggs referring to Adam West his Batman. So should you watch this movie? My answer is yes, because this is just my opinion and you might like it either way ;)
