Trailer was great, movie was terrible.

Rating: 5/10 (9 August 2016)

I haven't wrote a review here in at least 10 years now. Dusted off my account to do it because of this movie. This is SPOILER FREE review, so no worries.
I don't usually complain about anything thats made into a movie from somewhere else. But this trailer REALLY made the movie look good. But it turned out to be pretty bad.
They tried to fit a massive story into one small movie. It felt rushed and badly edited. Didn't really give you time to think about anything and no real character development. Mind you I know the story, but it didn't well how they put it on screen. Batman v Superman was better sadly.
The Joker seems terrible. His tattoos were a bad idea as were the silver dental work and overall "over board" insane level. His persona not like the Joker we've seen so much in the past. It felt like Leto was trying to hard to make the Joker different. Harley wasn't to badly done. The rest of the people were close enough to their comic book selves.
And I'm glad they tied in the other DC movies into this. Stay past the end credits to see why. The CGI was really nice in the movie, better then I thought it would be. I can tell though they reedited the movie like the said they did. Originally the movie did not have the music it did. Movie also felt all over the place at times. Thankfully as I said I know about the story, but I can see why many who don't know it would feel a bit lost and bored.
Overall I'd say its a 5.5 out of 10. Its sad that this broke Guardians of the Galaxy's record in terms of money earned. All this goes to show you can't always go by a movies trailer. This is a rental at best.
