Cast list off Wikipedia: Margot Robbie as Harleen Quinzel / Harley Quinn: A former-certified psychiatrist, who became a crazed criminal and the Joker's accomplice/girlfriend, and later a part of the Suicide Squad. She has since cut ties with the Joker after the pair broke up.[8] Screenwriter Christina Hodson sought to reinvent Harley, wanting to expand on the character following her departure from the Joker's company.[9] Hodson called Harley the character she enjoyed developing most due to her unpredictable personality.[10] Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Helena Bertinelli / The Huntress: A vigilante who is the orphaned daughter of gangster Franco Bertinelli. Ella Mika portrays a young Helena, during flashback scenes. Jurnee Smollett-Bell as Dinah Lance / Black Canary A vigilante with the metahuman ability of hypersonic screams, which she inherited genetically from her mother. She is a singer in a club that Sionis owns. Smollett-Bell described Dinah as "disenfranchised and disconnected from the world," and someone who "doesn’t really want to have anything to do with crime fighting or being a good-doer, which is so against her nature because we know Dinah to be all heart." The actress added she became a fan of Black Canary by playing with the character in the video game Injustice 2, which also influenced how she physically portrayed the depiction of the hypersonic screams. Rosie Perez as Renee Montoya: An alcoholic, cynical detective in the Gotham City Police Department (GCPD), who is building a case against Sionis. Chris Messina as Victor Zsasz: A deranged mob killer and henchman of Sionis who carves a tally mark on his skin for each victim he claims. Ella Jay Basco as Cassandra Cain: A young girl who has a contract placed upon her head by Sionis after she steals a valuable diamond from him. Ali Wong as Ellen Yee: Montoya's ex-girlfriend and a Gotham City district attorney. Ewan McGregor as Roman Sionis / Black Mask: A brutal and iron-fisted crime lord who threatens Cassandra and Harley. McGregor described the character as "an absolute narcissist." Birds Of Prey from DC. It is long film. Comic book drama. Right wing males were most likely triggered by it. Margot and Jurnee look hot. Good humour, action, acting, soundtrack and effects. Can't fault the film. Strong female leads. Ewan is great as Black Mask. Camp but equally menacing. I wondered if he and his sidekick had a relationship. There is a Suicide Squad 2 out later. Don't forget Joker. Harley has split up with the Joker. She wants to make it on her own. Causing mayhem in Gotham. She is wanted by various people. Roman is after a diamond which belonged to a crime family. Cass is a pickpocket that gets into this mess. Dinah Lance works at Roman's club. Huntress is on a vendetta. See the mixture of colour used in the film to go with the theme. There is the Harley Quinn show that the Legends Of Podcasting had been reacting too. Ali Wong is also in the film. The last thing I saw with Rosie Perez was White Men Can't Jump. Seeing her nipples. She plays this policewoman that is working on a case against Roman. Worth checking out.
 The British TV show Red Dwarf returning soon. See the old episodes here.









Joker starring Joaquin Pheonix as Arthur Fleck. He is a performance artist/clown. Getting work however he can. He has mental health issues. Lives at home with his mother. Story is set in 1980s Gotham. This is one hell of an origin story. Each actor that played the villain has made the role his own. There are cringe moments that is because of how Arthur behaves in some scenes. With his laugh he is to stand out of the crowd. A few shocks and surprises are in store. I like the relationship he has with his mother. A great cast of actors. Phoenix is phenomenonal. You should see his other films. Robert DeNiro is a chat show host that Arthur idolises. About 2 hours runtime. A dark thriller drama. I like the soundtrack. I will look at trivia and discussions. I hope that he reprises his role in The Batman. Interesting to see where the mean streak starts. Becoming an anarchist symbol. These characters might be compared to real life people. Joaquin has lost weight for this role.
