About this movie

It feels good to be bad… Assemble a team of the world’s most dangerous, incarcerated Super Villains, provide them with the most powerful arsenal at the government’s disposal, and send them off on a mission to defeat an enigmatic, insuperable entity. U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren’t picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it’s every man for himself?

They had the actors, the epic characters but wow did they blow it. The story was boring, the editing was horrible and the directing just has no words. The scenes didn't blend together to make a movie, it was more like an hour and something worth of scenes. The fact that there were so many characters worked against the film as well. They were all so interesting and each got such little backstory time. I had read about the issue with the Joker not being in it enough but wow he wasn't in it at all! Poor Jared, he worked so hard on this character :(

Was looking forward to suicide squad. But this was just disappointing, Snyder needs to give back the DC franchise to Nolan he failed on Man of Steel, failed Batman vs Superman, I know he didn't direct this but he produced it and probably took over for Ayer because it is his same style of Snyder's I can tell justice league is going to be a waste of time now if he continues to direct these films in a documentary fashion. 300 was fine but not DC movies I'm sorry...

While I like Harley Quinn and Dead shot, it felt to far out of reach of what makes a great comic book movie. By the way based on the first 30 minutes of the movie I could not tell that this was going to be an aweful movie, and it also makes me think what the original version of this movie looked like. Horrible villian, the Enchantress is not a villian, that should ever be in a debut movie. Editing is horrible, horribly under developed characters other then deadshot and Harley Quinn. The Joker I can't judge as he was not given any screen time at all. Avoid this movie if you are a fan of the comics. Or actually just stay away from this movie in general. Horrible movie.
