Message to Warner Brothers....

Rating: 8/10 (10 August 2016)

Stop showing the best lines and jokes from films in the TRAILER!!! This stuff needs to be a surprise when viewing the actual movie. This film is a victim of two things critically, superhero film fatigue and trailer compression (ie. showing all the best parts in the bloody trailer!) Besides that it is a fantastic film with terrific performances. Jared Leto and Margot Robbie score a touchdown with their portrayals. Yes Leto's Joker is a contemporary version of the Joker, but in DC's revamped universe it works very well. Thematically please tell me how this film fundamentally differs from The Avengers? No it's not an imitation, although Marvel and DC have been shamelessly ripping each other off for 50 years at the newsstands. All superhero team ups are a derivative of the Seven Samurai or the Dirty Dozen anyway. Please stop using RT aggregates to judge films. They are no longer relevant. Go and see Suicide Squad. Relax and stop nit-picking and learn how to enjoy a good time once more.
