Worst editing ever

Rating: 4/10 (4 August 2016)

This was a pretty movie, but unlike still photographs, movies must have story that takes place over a period of time. The editors seemed to ignore that. The obviousness of the re-edit after BvS's critical failure is so blatant that the story is incomprehensible. We're talking day turning to night turning to day, a la Plan 9 from Outer Space. The acting is pretty good, especially from Margot Robbie. And I love the "gangster/mobster" Joker. But people, there's got to be a story. Inserting jokes to "lighten the mood" only works if the jokes are an integral part of the character, and the jokes are timed well. Plot events have to be shown, if not in actual chronological order, then at least in a way that makes sense to the audience. This movie was pieced together with old wood glue and some duct tape. Again, the music was cool (although sometimes unnecessary), Margot Robbie's great and gorgeous, and there were other positive aspects. But these are the preetty face of a poorly-executed film. Save time and money and skip this one.
