Not your typical girls night out film, as this comic book all female-led flick is crazy, fun, a bit violent- (its rated R-16) and absolutely bonkers. The fight sequences, stunts and choreography are all jaw dropping amazing! Margot Robbie as the undisputed Harley Quinn is so impressive in these scenes that she should be registered as a lethal weapon. She’s practically her own army!
While you might expect a lot of action in a comic book movie what I did not expect was the film’s message of women empowerment but it was delivered in such a way that was not so “in your face” as to come across as “too preachy”.
As a woman I was able to relate to a lot scenes in the movie, which depicted women being abused physically, emotionally or even just being in a toxic relationship. As well as the concept of a woman “belonging” to a man, and yet these instances of abuse are trumped by an unlikely group of girls who come together to show these men not to mess with ladies seeking emancipation.
