That was a disappointment...

Rating: 6/10 (28 November 2016)

I was expecting really long time to watch Suicide Squad, since the very first rumours actually, and I had high expectations about it. I don't wanna accept this, but it was a big disappointment...
The plot was not even close to successful. Such a huge mess. Pulling it a bit of here and there in order to make - again - an incomplete story. After Jack Nicholson's and Heath Ledger's Jokers, there is obviously a burden to take the role of this terrific villain. But Jared Leto did not even touched the hero's disturbed psychology and character in my opinion. It was all too contrived. The movie's poster was already to kitsch for me, but I thought that they just wanted to give it a little bit of "comics" aesthetic. The graphics in the very beginning of the movie, during the presentation of the Suicide Squad were such a bad-taste. Enchantress' appearance in the movie was something I was really looking forward to, 'cause she is a villain that not many people know about. Since she is named "Enchantress" of course there's gonna be a supernatural element to it, BUT, making her the main villain of the movie and everything turning around that element was a big failure to me.
Although I feel that Margot Robbie's and Viola Davis's acting skills really saved the day - I never expected cold-blooded b***h Amanda Waller becoming one of my favorites - I found Margot Robbie's acting really "too much" at some points, but on the other hand, that's what Harley Quinn is, right?
The connections to "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" as well as Ben Affleck's and Ezra Miller's cameos - as Batman and Flash respectively - were a pleasant surprise and were a plus for me. The only reason I gave a high rating, regarding what I actually watched and what I expected to watch, was just because of Viola Davis and Margot Robbie...
