It's better than your average super hero movie

Rating: 8/10 (6 August 2016)

Before reading further I want to layout my movie c.v
Movies which I find excellent in this genre
1. The dark Knight trilogy
2. The avengers
Movies which I find alright, with high potential going further
1. Man of steel
2. Iron Man 1
Movies which I frankly do not like
1. Batman v superman
2. Hulk 2008
Now to review this movie.
Characters
1. Very well introduced, we know where they come from, what they are capable of, and why they are there.
2. Dead shot and Harley Quinn are the leads and they not disappoint even for a moment.
3. Joker is just pure awesomeness, people say he had very less time, I think he was in it for just the right amount of time. This joker is more crazy than the Dark Knight joker.
4. Amanda is the boss, Flag does what he is supposed to do, nothing too delightful, because his character was just a middleman between Amanda and dead shot frankly.
5. Supporting squad members all are entertaining especially Diablo & Boomerang. Katana and Croc were just there and wouldn't have made much difference if they were not.
6. Cameos, Flash and the Batman make appearances, but they were negligible.
7. Motives were clearly laid out for the villain.
Action
1. All of the actions were clean and easy to follow, not forgetting entertaining
Story
1. Story was easy to follow. Everything had a reason to occur, and whatever was unclear, were negligible.
Emotions
1. Some parts were however this isn't meant to be a serious movie, its more like a fun movie with a serious take on magic. Characters who are serious or fun are what they are because of who they are.
Flaws : a bit of spoilers
1. During the climatic scene at the end, questions were raised as to why the flash didn't turn up.
2. Part of the villain history is not clear which is a very integral part of the evil side in this movie.
Summary
This is the guardians of the galaxy of the DC universe. If we look at the movie from that perspective i.e its mostly meant to introduce characters and entertain you, you will be more than impressed as it delivers more towards realism and a grounded approach than it's competitor. The hate that it's receiving, 26% on rotten tomatoes at this time, is hilarious. I would question my movie review critiqs or websites on their neutrality.
