Final Thoughts: A Cautionary Tale for Ensemble Films

In conclusion, the critique indicates that Birds of Prey exemplifies many pitfalls common to big ensemble superhero films. It overpromises, underdelivers, and allows its potential to be overshadowed by clichés, forcing viewers to sift through disjointed scenes to find fleeting moments of satisfaction.

The lesson here is simple: if you're going to craft a sequel or a new installment in this genre, aim to truly deliver on your promises. Live your headline. Avoid over-complication, and prioritize character interactions that emerge naturally rather than artificially through exposition. Only then can these films transcend their market-driven expectations and become truly memorable.
