It was a good watch, but not worth to die for.

Rating: 6/10 (7 August 2016)

For a movie centered around villains, this is a moderate start for DC and Warner Brothers. It was nice to see some of the villains to gain some backstory, such as Harley Quin's obsession over the Joker, Deadshot's loss of his family, Diablo's lack of his heat control, and Flag's desperation in eliminating demon witch within his girlfriend. Plus, the humor does give me a chance to see how the characters interact with each other, along with the action to let them have the spotlight. However, with all of the positive this movie has, it still cannot be considered perfect with its loose ends. Although we do see focus on most of the characters, there are still a few roles that I believe need to have more development on.
One of the characters I was hyped to see in this film was Katana, and I was hopeful to know how she is characterized (since I've never read any of her comics). According to the movie's official website, Katana's bio states that, as second in command next to Colonel Flag, her duty is "...to keep the others in line." But, after watching the film, I was disappointed to see that she doesn't do much to keep the squad members disciplined. All she did was lamented for her deceased husband, and slashed a few minions. I never saw her ran after the protagonists when they make a mistake (ex: In the middle of the film, Harley attempts to leave the squad for Joker, and Katana didn't even move an inch to stop the madwoman). This is the same feeling I got with Killer Croc, whom I was also interested to know about. I haven't any of his comics, yet was still curious to understand how he got his scales. Similar to Katana, Croc doesn't get a lot of back story. Both of them did fight throughout the second-half of the film, but that was all I got out of it. Slipnot was another character that didn't get a lot of attention. You know, the assassin who was recruited in the squad, and was later tased internally for his disobedience. He is the guy whom I remembered punched a lady at the villain's prison camp, and that was it. Although I wish the writer could do more with Slipnot, he really didn't need to be part of an over-sized squad. Viola Davis' character, Amanda Walker, was very difficult to understand. As far as I know, she convinced the government that the squad members can be contained, shot some of her working clients for no reason, survived from a aircraft crash and ward off some the minions, and is still a part of the government. You can correct me, if I'm wrong about her actions/character in the film. It's just that I expected a lot of her that the result made me care less of Davis' character even more. Finally, we have the main villain: Enchantress. A witch whom over a thousand years was trapped within a voodoo doll, and escaped thanks to her alter ego, June Moore. She's the same witch who wants to destroy humankind because of one thing: technology. Yep, that is the only reason, the ONLY REASON why Enchantress wants to wipe out humanity. Humans shouldn't use technology, even though SAMSUNG IS ONE OF THE SPONSORS FOR THIS FILM! Yeah, nothing like shaming the human race for doing a bad deed, when the film itself is a part of it, too. Sounds familiar (The Lorax)?
With all that said, this isn't the perfect comic flick for the summer. I'd rather watch Captain America: Civil War again than to see this suicide mess. But, at least "Suicide Squad" did held some water make it through. So, is worth the watch? Maybe, if you haven't seen it and wondered what everyone's talking about. While I may not want to watch this movie again, it was a good way to end the summer.
