The DCEU is DOA

Rating: 1/10 (19 March 2018)

It started off as a cool concept.
Incarcerated supervillains being used as government pawns to reluctantly work together and stop greater threats? Yeah, that's cool.
Then they picked some of the least interesting DC Villains to work with. Now I know, you can't just comprise the whole cast of heavy hitters, you gotta bring in some obscure benchwarmers from the lineup so you don't blow it all too quickly. This film's cast is nothing but 2nd rate benchwarmers from the DC lineup.
Then the first trailer came out. Then came the rewrites. And the reshoots. Every link on the chain of command rusted, came apart and turned to dust on the ground. The excessive reshoots and rewrites causing millions of dollars of budget to simply disappear, created a perfect storm of continuity errors from plot points that make no sense because their setup was established in scenes that were cut, to characters that are established in the beginning and proceed to become ghosts for the rest of the movie. Examples: Katana, the girl whose blade is so sharp it cut her scenes out of the movie, and Slipknot (the man who can climb anything) who became quite literally a ghost within 10 minutes of his introduction and had less than a minute of actual screentime. The main plot twist of the movie makes no sense within the film's context, and the main moral dilemma at the end is a trashfire because Deadshot and Rick Flag's inner conflicts make no sense, and the stakes are completely removed at the end meaning the moral dilemma was pointless from the getgo.
The soundtrack is the least memorable big-budget action movie schlock you'd expect from a film like this. That is, when it's even present rather than licensed music that is so painfully on-the-nose that it makes me wish I was wearing earplugs. In fact the original score for the film is unmemorable for two reasons; A) It's incredibly generic and B) it's barely even there.
The used needle icing on the medical waste cake that is this movie, is the horrible editing. A trailer house was brought in to put this Humpty-Dumpty film back together. Surprise surprise, they couldn't. The entire movie suffers from continuity errors, horrible pacing, bad framing and atrocious visual appeal. Since the film was pieced together by a trailer house, the entire film feels like every scene is another trailer back to back, it feels like a preview that never ends.
It's an insulting mismatch of a film that couldn't be worse if Uwe Boll dreamt it up.
