Suicide Squad was a fun movie with a messy way of telling the storyline

Rating: 7/10 (6 August 2016)

First of all, this movie does not deserve the reviews they have been getting from the critics. I mean 27% ?! That's too harsh to judge on a decent comic book film. Yes there are some flaws, but throughout the entire movie, it was very fun. These characters are just hilarious and they crack up jokes throughout the entire movie. Margot Robbie was brilliant as Harley Quinn, Will Smith was fun and spectacular as Deadshot, and Jai Courtney was actually really funny as Captain Boomerang. Also, Jared Leto was also good as the Joker, although I prefer Heath Ledger's by a mile. Not only the performances from these people, but the story was not bad (except for the villain). The story gave them backgrounds and show the viewers who these characters are and I thought Deadshot's flashback was the best because it shows his love for his family, which brings to one of the best scene of the movie including Batman. Finally, the action sequence were mostly great, and the soundtrack of this movie are just brilliant.
Although the movie was fun, the telling of the story was not good. It was a mess. The Joker was there (who we originally thought was the main villain), and the suicide squad itself, the flashbacks, the main villain Enchantress, and scenes with Batman and one of the justice league characters. It was too much to be shown into one entire movie. The Joker did not have to be in that movie, as well as Batman. But these are the things people want to see so they did put them in the movie. And WOW ! Enchantress was horrifying in this film. She was half stripper half evil... I don't even know. And Killer Croc was just useless.
After all, the overall storyline of Suicide Squad was good, but because the writer includes these people who just do not fit in the movie, it makes the telling messy and cramped together. But hey, I had fun. It was certainly better than BvS in my opinion. This movie gets a C+.
