Sorry, this movie sucks
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
A funny movie that was worth watching. Harley came into her own once she was out from under the Joker's shadow. Unlike most Batman movies, this one is a little lighter and has a huge humor factor. Definitely worth seeing!
Love anything to do with Batman and any superhero or supervillain, animated or live-action. Also like to love a lot of the animated superhero/comic book films, so part of me was expecting a great deal from 'Batman and Harley Quinn'.Sadly, 'Batman and Harley Quinn' turned out to be a big disappointment in ways that have been summed up very well in previous reviews, not much to add. It isn't as bad as 'Batman and Robin', it takes a lot for any superhero film to be as bad as that (there's a reason as to why whenever there is a film part of a franchise that disgraces the franchise it is likened as "the 'Batman and Robin' of..."). That however doesn't stop it from failing drastically to live up to its potential.There are plus points. Kevin Conroy and Loren Lester do a great job as Batman (as one would expect, Conroy is without equal as the character) and Nightwing. Some of the animation is meticulous in detail, faithfully drawn and brooding, other parts though could have done with a lot more care and refinement (there are lapses in continuity here and there). The music is atmospheric and pulsating.However, most of the voice actors don't fit the characters. Melissa Rauch is a very awkward fit for Harley and Paget Brewster has done much better work than her fairly anaemic Poison Ivy. The characters are poorly written, either being flimsy in development or personality or out of character.Much of the dialogue doesn't work, the darker dramatic elements ring hollow and the comedic approach to other parts jars. The jokes are not funny and are incredibly juvenile and forced, while the more serious nature of the story is hampered by over-reliance on over-convenient plot devices, dull pacing, lack of coherence and some scenes being irrelevant. The much panned sex scene particularly is completely out of place. Tonally the film is all over the place and incredibly disjointed, and the ending is highly suggestive of the writers running out of ideas because it is the complete anti-thesis of going out with a bang.Overall, disappointing and fails to pack a punch. 3/10 Bethany Cox
Watch it if you want to laugh and see batman a little bit goofier than usual.I understand why the movie rubs some people in the wrong way, but I absolutely love it. It has a nice combination of comedy (which turned people off) & deep moments. Comedy: Batman acting more human and funnier than usual Depth: The scene at Harley's place, when they talked about her... "Job". Comedy: The kiss at the end Depth: Green team's ideology and speeches.And so on.This was a unique heartwarming experience. Yeah, this movie is definitely not an objective 10\10 kind of film, but I absolutely loved every moment of it.
It is quite long ago since I have laughed that often while watching a Marvel comic movie. I really liked this combo because Harley Quinn with her funny comments was a formidable opposite to the all time serious Batman. Seeing a former bad girl teaming up with the good guys while still keeping her own style was a really refreshing experience. And Nightwing all in the middle getting his head turned by a not so bad "bad" girl.. Also it had some deeper thoughts about former criminals struggling in life while trying quite hard to stay on the good side. Additionally the story showed that the world isn't black and white. Sometimes the motivation might be justifiable while the methods to achieve the goal are completely wrong. Because of combining all that very well it was a nearly perfect mix for me to watch. Can I have more of this,please?!
