A fun film, better than expected

Rating: 8/10 (6 August 2016)

I was really looking forward to this film and was disappointed to see the critic scores of 29%. Still, I decided to go and watch the film for myself and make up my own mind ! The film is well acted and has quite a good story line. The world is rocked by the death of Superman and has woken up up the threat of meta-humans and the danger they pose to humanity. Cue Amanda Waller and her plan to form Task Force X, a.k.a. the Suicide Squad. The introductions of the characters takes a while but at least they are quite well done. Harley and Deadshot are clearly the stars of the film and take centre stage. Having said that, all of the cast do a really good job and deserve praise. The story may be basic and fairly straight forward but it is the journey that the characters take that is of interest. The bonds that the members start to form and the interactions between the characters. This is a good film for DC and if the upcoming films are this good then I will be a happy man !!!
If you look superhero films then go watch this and make up your own mind !!!
