Margot Robbie Steals The Show

Rating: 7/10 (12 June 2019)

Suicide Squad (2016)
Plot In A Paragraph: A secret government agency recruits some of the most dangerous incarcerated super-villains to form a defensive task force. Their first mission: save the world from the apocalypse.
This was not as bad as I remembered. I'll say this right off the bat, Margot Robbie not only, totally steals this movie, she stops it from being outright awful. I'd watch a solo movie with Robbie as Harley Quinn any day.
The first 20 minutes were decent, as was the last 20 minutes. It's what is in between that's the problem. Smith was ok as Deadshot, but his performance was a bit too Will Smith for me. I thought Leto's Joker showed promise for future movies and for the first time ever, I did not hate Jai Courtney.
I really enjoyed the rock soundtrack too.
Suicide Squad became Will Smith's highest grossing domestic movie. Grossing $325 million at the domestic box office to end the year, the 9th highest grossing movie of 2016.
