Every Margot Robbie Movie Ranked From Worst To Best
9. Birds Of Prey (2020)
After becoming a hit as the lone highlight of Suicide Squad, and before stealing the show once again in The Suicide Squad, Margot Robbie was rightly given her own solo Harley Quinn movie. The ridiculously titled Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) was soon retitled to just Birds of Prey, but though her name was dropped from the title, make no mistake that this was her film.
Breaking free of the Suicide Squad and of the Joker, a point that was driven home in spectacular fashion, allowed for a different side of the character to be seen. The protective, vulnerable, and wholesome side of Harley was on show, but absolutely none of the batsh*t crazy wonderfulness that made her so popular in the first place was sacrificed.
This was Harley at her most chaotic and her most eccentric, going up against Ewan McGregor's unnervingly compelling Black Mask. And while Harley had to be diluted somewhat to fit into both Suicide Squad ensembles, here she could flourish like never before or since.
Ultimately, the movie suffered from releasing at the height of a pandemic and from poor marketing in general, and it really did deserve more of an audience.
