User Reviews

A messy movie with some moments of fun

If you are not driven by the imperative need of understanding precisely what is happening in your movie, you might enjoy this psychedelic mix of disjointed cool visuals, great music, firecrackers, fragments of good acting... Birds Of Prey is a mess presented in a messy way, it hardly holds together as a story but it offers moments of fun.
