Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn -- or Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey, whatever you want to call it -- easily outclasses the rest of the DCEU. However, one late in the game reveal would have allowed the film to soar even higher if it were a constant presence throughout the movie.

Though advertised as a superhero movie, the only character to have any real superpower is Dinah Lance, aka Black Canary. Played by Jurnee Smollett-Bell, she has the ability to emit a hypersonic scream, stopping enemies in their tracks. Despite having this great power, she only uses it once in the film.

Black Canary is involved in a number of action scenes, yet doesn't use her powers until the final act. If she were to use her powers in smaller doses during her other fights, she doesn't lose her badass moment at the end and gets to displaying her awesome powers more often.

Dinah is an incredibly powerful character, so her superhuman abilities deserved more scream time, er, screen time.
