THR

Suicide Squad may not quite commit harakiri, but it certainly feels like it’s taken far too many sleeping pills.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

WOOF

 

[Dash_Riprock]

I'm already hearing a lot about inconsistent tone. Lends credence to those reshoot rumors...

 

[BronsonLee]

Ya'll really don't have the review thread up yet huh

I'd do it but I can't put in the work to update the OP

 

[orthodoxy1095]

Holy shit the whiplash is hitting me already.

Halp.

 

[CloudWolf]

Holy shit, Ice Age has 12% on RT? Crazy.

Well, it's a terrible film. It was not unexpected.

Like Avengers Assemble forced through a Deadpool mangle, Suicide Squad gives new life to DC’s big-screen universe. So bad-to-the-bone it’s good.

I can dig it.

Vanity fair:

David Ayer’s super-villain team-up is dull, uninspired, and perhaps worst of all, forgettable.

Screencrush: 3/10

How the fuck did they fuck this up

wow

 

[EightBitNate]

:/

 

[Diprosalic]

Lmao. I hoped it would be good but this trashing is maybe the second best thing.

 

[DecoReturns]

Maybe you should have WB interfere more.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I wasn't expecting this.

 

[johnnydrama]

Pack it up, WB. You can't make shit. DCEU is over.

 

[Certinty]

Expected this, trailers were so bloody bad.

IndieWire gives it a D+

And here's a review from a smaller site.

http://www.soisitanygood.com/suicide-squad-movie-review/

The pacing is horrible; the script is all over the place. One second we are rushing into battle on the sands of Normandy until we have our Achilles heel snipped and thrown into a 10-minute flashback sequence that adds nothing to the film. The first 45 mins of the film is just origins for members of the squad. We live in a social media world. These origins should have been trailers. The way they end up in the finished product feels out of place, as it’s basically a series of short films.

As some of you might know, I don’t like Jai Courtney. For me, Jai Courtney is like the mutated spawn of Hayden Christensen and Sam Worthington; I’d rather watch paint dry then watch this wooden actor take the screen as Captain Boomerang. However I’ll shout from the highest rooftops, Jai Courtney is perfect as Captain Boomerang; He is a crazy beer guzzling, lunatic from Australia, which is undoubtedly a perfect fit for the Australian-born Courtney.

While Suicide Squad isn’t all bad, it just doesn’t have enough for me to recommend to any DC fans or film fans for that matter. You can forgive DC for Man of Steel or maybe even Batman V Superman but 3 films into the DC Cinematic Universe is far too many to still have so many underlying issues. I’m still holding out hope for Justice League as I know the film is in good hands with Geoff Johns’ hands deep into the pie.

Welp time to put myself on suicide watch no pun intended.

What?!?! After bombarding us with article after article everyday for what feels like two while years they give it a 5.9?

Damn, things are not looking good

 

[bananafactory]

Pack it up, WB. You can't make shit. DCEU is over.

There's still JL and WW before we can even consider that

 

[SilentRob]

Is...is this movie getting a worse critical response than Batman V Superman?

Did not expect that.

 

[EightBitNate]

I wonder if it'll still track $140 million
