An Average Superhero Movie

Rating: 5/10 (7 May 2020)

I really liked the characterizations in this movie. The actors did a great job capturing their characters. The problem with this movie is the lack of a story.
First, most of the movie is backstory. It takes forever for the actual story to start. I don't think this introductory material is essential to the story about the formation of the team. This material is just character backstory and it gets old.
Second, the crisis is entirely the consequence of creating the Suicide Squad itself. The plot is entirely circular. As a result, it trivializes the story.
Third, the villains are terrible. I love watching the Enchantress, but she and her brother are easily defeated. They don't make much of a problem for the Suicide Squad. If a real superhero had engaged them, this movie would have been over in one minute.
