Great Movie

Rating: 10/10 (6 August 2016)

I just saw Suicide Squad in 3-D last night and was initially skeptical with all the mixed reviews I have been reading this past week.
First thing: Please stop comparing these DC Extended Universe movies to the Christopher Nolan Batman Trilogy. Thats like comparing Bob Kane's batman to Frank Miller's version. Both are night and day different but great in their own aspects. That is what is going on with these movies. You have to watch these movies and not compare them to the movies from the past. Have a open mind and enjoy the fresh take on these characters because as far as comic book movies go Suicide Squad is an EXCELLENT movie. Its filled with cameos and story builders for future movies while still telling an individual story that is entertaining.
Second: I do not see why critics are calling this movie a mess. As a person who went to art school and studied films as a visual effects and motion graphics artist i saw beautiful, artistic imagery and was able to follow the story line just fine. Never once did i feel lost, confused, or felt like there was any scenes that were unnecessary is developing the story or individual characters personality. This movie follows the perfect formula for story telling and future story building.
In conclusion these movies grasp the darker aspect of the DC Universe, which the comics of the eighties are known for, while providing a modern feeling to the characters. Suicide Squad is definitely worth seeing in theaters, especially in 3-D. If you have even the slightest interest in seeing this movie, please go see it. Have an open mind as if seeing these characters for the first time and i guarantee you will not be disappointed.
