A world of blurred lines

Rating: 8/10 (22 September 2016)

If one is looking for a film that shows what has never before been seen, or depicts a black and white world, Suicide Squad is wasted on such individuals. If however one views any film with a open mind, and remains undisturbed by a world depiction where the good and the bad are not easily discernible, changing back and forth throughout the course of the film, Suicide Squad is a treat. All the actors involved do a fine job portraying their characters, the film is well-scripted for its genre, and the special effects are not over- blown. The trick was always going to be completing the story-line without leaving too much out or becoming choppy sequentially during the editing process. In that the film succeeds. It is not a masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination, but it is well done. The only real complaint comes from the film not including the song "Ballroom Blitz," which was present in the early commercial trailers but is absent during the actual film. A minor inconvenience to be sure however once the song was included in those original trailers it became integral to the film. It makes one wonder what caused the song not be used. Oh well......
