A one time watch which should/could have been a classic for the genre.

Rating: 8/10 (7 August 2016)

Crazy, fun, slick movie worth a watch. I got my moneys worth but have to say that I was a shade disappointed with the final outcome after the brilliant build up. Suicide Squad is one of those rare movies to have a lot of superlative acting performances and cgi effects to match them but lacked the punch from the creative department. Will Smith, Margot Robbie, Joel Kinnaman, Viola Davis and Jared Leto (for the handful of scenes he had in the movie) were all amazing. The villains, Cara Delevingne and her CGI army, were disappointing to say the least. The 'Enchantress' was meant to be menacing by ended up being a comic supplement to already fun packed movie.
Mindlessness is part and parcel of movies that fall under this genre but even there there was a lot of scope to keep the audience guessing. It was as if the director wanted to show too many things but was strictly forbidden by Warner bros to wrap it up at around 2 hours screen time. My opinion : One time, fun watch which could have been a lot better had they kept up the good work from the first half of the movie.
