“Birds of Prey” and the Fantabulous Emancipation from the DCEU
Birds of Prey has some of the best stunt work and choreography of 2020, and was the most fun I’d had in an action film since John Wick 3.
Tierisch verknallt
Little Jan wants to matchmake his widowed father Peter. But dad gruffly rebuffs candidate Lisa. So Jan asks his mother in heaven for help. Whoosh: dog and pet pig can talk and help!
