Batman and Harley Quinn (2017)

I'm giving it a ten because I thoroughly enjoyed it. It had good animation, humor, and action. It was great having Kevin Conroy back in the role as Batman again, he always does a good job. It may not be as good as the animated series it's based on but it's hell of a lot of fun and doesn't deserve the hate.

Great Harley Quinn description feedback is amazing! Great film

My ten year old son was in the mood to watch some old BTAS episodes. I'm always down for that so let's fire up Amazon Prime. While doing our search we found this movie. Cool, let's check it out. It should be good. WRONG. I actually came to IMDB to write a scathing review of whoever wrote this drivel and lo and behold Bruce Timm wrote it. WHAT. Say it isn't so. I can only hope he was high as a kite when he wrote this. Half of it seemed to be fetish fan fiction and the rest was just absurd. I get it. BTAS fans are older now, but gratuitous profanity and cheesecake shots aren't the way to show the writing is now edgy and adult. I was hoping the ending would reveal that Harley was still in Arkham and this whole movie was just a crazy, drug induced dream, but that was not the case. Still, Bruce Timm has written so many brilliant Batman stories, he's entitled to one stinker.

Granted, as most of you are saying here, the movie was not what was expected it to be. Nonetheless, i found it great. Most of the review up here are talking about how it's an insult to the original animated series but what you forget is that this is not an episode of that series. This is a stand alone feature film in the same style of the series. This means they used their original designs en animation style of the series and that's it. And being a feature film animator myself, they took that style to a whole new level with this movie. I loved the improved animation in the action sequences and it really worked well for me. Animation overall was better than what they did in the series.The Musical number was indeed a strange choice but i enjoyed it anyway. Especially when batman starts tapping his finger. Of course, this is completely off character but still it works and showed us that he does like music.What I think it boils down to is that most people expected to see batman, Nightwing, Harley... in their traditional way, the way they know these characters. What we got instead was a movie where the character were very human. A great example of this, and some people might find it distasteful, is the Harley/ Nightwing sequence. It made Nightwing much more human for me. He is a man, she is a sexy girl. How would you react? Another example is the ex boyfriend. This shows that Harley had a life and boyfriends and breakups. Sound familiar. Just think about it, this gave the character so much more depth then just being the villain we all know and love. Even the fart joke, I think a perfectly timed fart joke is timeless and is funny to anyone. And again that made characters more human with bodily functions. I personally think this is a very enjoyable mature superhero movie in a unconventional way and i will recommend it.
