Thoroughly enjoyed this one, my main takeaway was Roman Sionis. I expected that he would just be a filler villain with little depth while Harley takes most of the screen time, but I was wrong. His twisted personality was in full force and earned the R rating. They even included his germ phobia with the gloves. Honestly he might be the best villain since Zod.
Action sequences were incredibly fun and the pacing was good. I would have preferred a more linear story with this type of movie but the back and forth wasn't too distracting.
This doesn't even feel like a superhero movie, more like an uplifting crime drama. Does that make sense? I can see people watching this after a break up and feel better having seen it. Harley's pain is shown well and you can't help but connect with her.
If you love Harley Quinn this is a can't miss as her character is given the needed depth that was so lacking in Suicide Squad. The other supporting ladies also shine in their limited roles.

Quick thoughts on the episode, I think this is the first episode we actually see the suit in the light multiple times and for the CW budget it looks great. The hair... still awesome and really makes the suit pop even more. The writing is still what it is but at least now Alice has someone to bounce lines off with that makes her character more interesting. Kate getting better I guess relatively speaking from the previous episodes but the writing isn't helping Ruby Rose. The villain was okay but this show should have tried to avoid reusing characters that have already been on Gotham the TV show because now we can just play the compare game. Love of hate Gotham but they adapted the well for the most part. Another okay episode nothing that will bring people back to the show but not bad enough that those who are still sticking around will leave.

I would like to know if someone else directed the flashback scenes because unlike the present, those were enjoyable to watch all the way through. The present continues to be a weird mess. I would appreciate the Alice character more if a good half her dialogue wasn't from Wonderland quotes. It is episode 5 and it is getting stale. The worst scene would have to be from the step mother and step daughter. For the dark past that is being told neither character was really reacting in a way that made sense. Other scenes were more unnecessarily comedic when the subject matter was far more dark. Characters can grow before are eyes when they deal with tragedy, this will never happen if the writers keep trying to throw dark themes at us but continually make characters oblivious to the stakes.
