Practically every action scene will leave you asking:

"Why are they not just shooting Harley?"

Scene after scene of people not just shooting harley, running in to melee or everyone reloads at the same time.

Or people literally aiming at the "heroes" while they run out and do something without anyone pulling the trigger.

The entire movie does this.

Meh

Lots of movies do this, I think Birds of Prey looks shit but I wouldn't hold this against it since I didn't hold it against The Expendables.

Aside from the million issues i have with the action scene, the police stations ive been to have at least a guard and a metal detector at the door.

I have no clue how she got as far as where the scene started.

The plot was full of more holes than Joker's ex goons.

Also DON'T trust Rotten Tomatoes anymore. It's worthless.
If it didn't already look like it was obviously bought off before, it does now....

The funny thing about telling others to take the high road is how often it's hypocritical advice.

Its a fucking "girl power" comic book movie. Its more fun if you dont poke holes and just enjoy the over the top scenes and cheezy acting.

How does anyone "buy" Rotten Tomatoes? They don't have their own reviewers

How do Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes work differently? Because this is another case of the two having a huge gap in their aggregate score.

She shot the Guard and side stepped the metal detector. It was the first thing she did when she dropped her disguise.

They establish less than 10 seconds in that the story is told from her perspective. The scenes could very well be exaggerated because thats how she visioned them taking place. Shes insane, remember?

And these usually have cameras and the front desk, behind protective glass, looking at the metal detector and guard. They immidiately sound an alarm if you did that. Not to mention ive not seen one where you can side step the metal detector. Youd have to shoot the guard and jump over the side. Which again, the front desk is looking at you as well as a camera.

It's been getting good reviews on other sites as well. Even has a positive audience rating on rotten tomatoes. Like it's not hard to find places that says the movie is good.
