What a let down

Rating: 4/10 (14 January 2017)

This film was hyped up so much that it was almost inevitable that it wouldn't live up to such high expectations, so I was half prepared to be let down. What I wasn't prepared for was just how shoddy and poor 'Suicide Squad' actually is. The plot is weak and its delivery is messy and at times confusing.
Even the action is below what I had expected, which is unacceptable considering what can be done with CGI and special effects in 2016. How can something so hyped, so highly anticipated and with so much potential turn out as lame and underwhelming as this? The film is poor and great actors such as Will Smith are wasted on such disappointing material.
I went into this film expecting to be let down, and I was. But it was a hell of a lot worse than I was expecting. 'Suicide Squad' is one of the most overly hyped and hugely disappointing movies of the last few years.
