Meh. Didn't live up to the Hype.

Rating: 5/10 (6 August 2016)

All the cool factors like the hot casts, great comic book characters and pop culture went into the marketing for this film. For a year, we hung on to the breadcrumbs of snippets like the awesome trailers and Instagram posts from the casts.
Then the movie finally comes out and it's just MEH...Just Okay. Not nearly as terrible as the critics say but it wasn't great as expected.
The GOOD: Awesome Casts of Actors Interesting. Hardcore comic book characters each with their own personal origin story
The BAD that made the movie mediocre:
-CHEESY Final Fight Scene - The main villain, enchantress is a lot like Gozer in the 1984 Ghostbusters. A creepy ancient cult supernatural being that was worshipped with magical powers with the desire to rule the world. That was the 80's and it worked back then because it fit the cheesy style of the classic Ghostbusters comedy.
But for Suicide Squad, it's more raw and edgy with DEADLY hardcore villains as the main characters. David Ayers could have picked a better enemy out of all the characters in the comic book world. That was lazy writing.

If Cara's Enchantress knew what everyone wanted in their hearts, then how could she not predict or see Harley's motive to attack her with the sword. Clarity - There was a scene were Enchantress showed us what each character in the squad wanted in their hearts through a mental fantasy.

Lame action scenes - The slave servants of Enchantress looked like a PILE OF Black Rocks or Gobs. They had no faces. They only existed to die to see the Suicide Squad in action. THE SQUAD NEEDED BETTER COMPETITION. The things were so dark you couldn't really see them and they were boring. Deadshot (Will Smith) was great though.

A Lack of action. I think there was only like 1 or 2 fight parts before the final show down.

If David Ayers had the Suicide Squad to fight against another team of comic book villains like Deathstroke or hundreds of other choices that were plotting to take government information or the cliché take over the world, this movie would have been way better. It would have been cool to see Lex Luthor in the mix betraying Amanda Waller or something.
By the squad fighting other hardcore villains with abilities and known identities, we would see their different fighting skills and abilities better rather than them fighting faceless black gobs. So Suicide Squad was MEH. A WASTE of a great cast of actors and awesome comic book characters.

I didn't care about Rick Flag's love motive with Cara's character. Cliché and corny! Rick's actions and stupid simpleton mistake thinking he can control an ancient demon supernatural being to get rid of the bomb was so stupid.

Corny happy ending. Rick Flag gets his boring girl back. No sacrifice or risk. PG13.

The most pointless slow motion ending scene in cinema history.
