DC falls short again

Rating: 5/10 (7 August 2016)

I had been waiting for this movie for almost a year and it was an incredible let down. The plot of the movie was nonexistent. Context and story lines were built from insufficient flashbacks. The trailer for the movie was better than the actual movie. The soundtrack was miserable. The movie was full of Will Smith one liners, which fell short most of the time. Rick Flagg sounded ridiculous with his forced accent. Harley Quinn was portrayed as just a sex symbol and not a real character. The relationship of the Suicide Squad team forms without any build up. Most of the dialogue occurred with just close up camera shots and there was no actual setting to the dialogue. Meaning there was no other feel to the shot besides the characters faces. Jared Leto sounded like a grunting animal for most of the movie. He and Batman were forced into the plot unnecessarily. If you ask me, the Joker didn't even need to be in the movie. Overall this movie was disjointed and the acting was mediocre. The plot was not cohesive at all. This just goes to show how Marvel has super hero movies down to an exact science.
