Matt Singer hated it.

DC should just pull a X man DOFP and reset the universe.
You have the speedforce to do it

How on earth are they that high.

[Anth0ny]

Oh dear.

KRUSTY WANTS OUT

 

[Kouichi]

Oh no not again. Not Suicide Squad!

 

[NealMcCauley]

Seems like even the positive reviews are saying the movie still has some major flaws. Not a good sign.

 

[ColdPizza]

All my friends are heathens take it slow...

 

[BokehKing]

Whelp time to watch the reactions of these reviews on the subreddit.

 

[purseowner]

Currently sitting at 46 metascore. BvS at 44.

Ouch.

 

[Aaron]

Shame Deadpool's success came too late. WB might have had the courage to make this an R movie like it should have been. Instead it was following the doomed trajectory of Bats vs Supes with some hasty edits sprinkled on top.

 

[Prompto]

David Ayer has failed us.

Patty Jenkins will save the DCEU!

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Not again

 

[Real Hero]

The Empire review didn't read as a 4 out of 5 at all.

Empire have to score super hero films highly because they always hype them up and act like they are super important to sell their own magazine

I have a free movie ticket I need to use before November 10th (so no Star Wars, boo) and I was going to use it on this, now I need to think of something else. But there's nothing coming out this fall so I think I need to see this shit anyway

 

[Dash_Riprock]

It's Christmas for Dash!

Aw, thanks for caring sunshine!

 

[bananafactory]

I wonder if you were going to say "It was always going to suck" if it was getting good reviews.

"Deadpool was always going to suck. Let's take a C tier 'hero' and add a bunch of dick and fart jokes then make a movie that takes place on a highway with just a 50 million dollar budget and two D tier xmen cameos"

 

[EightBitNate]

I was always confused at the people who were like "omg the marketing's so good!!"

the humor in the trailers just seemed super lame to me.

The Deadpool trailers weren't that great either, and that turned out to be great. Besides, were people really looking at this as a comedy?

 

[Loomba]

Ouch

 

[ViewtifulJC]

David Ayer has failed us.

Patty Jenkins will save the DCEU!

get the chalkboard out

 

[wesleyshark]

Hahahahahahahahahahahahhaahahaha let the meltdown begin

 

[BoosterDuck]

serves DC right for waiting 4 years to kick-start their cinematic universe

 

[Afrodium]

This doesn't bode well for the future of DC films...

 

[SocksAndShoes]

Uh.....wow.

 

[Coin Return]

Off with a bang at 14%.

 

[Metalmarc]

These reviews better not ruin the universe because this is the greatest on screen Joker yet and I need Batfleck movie with them

Nah

 

[moltonasty]

Damn this sucks lol.

Though I'm one of the freaks that liked BVS, so I'm still gonna check this out and hope for the best.

 

[Inferno313]

serves DC right for waiting 4 years to kick-start their universe

This is what we get for getting that George Miller JL film canceled.

 

[CountAntonius]

Ouch.

 

[DecoReturns]

serves DC right for waiting 4 years to kick-start their universe

Not their fault since Nolan didn't want to do it and it made his movies better because of it

I can't wait for Korey's take.

 

[Timeaisis]

I mean...did you guys see the trailers? The movie looked like an awful try-hard mess of a film.

 

[evanmisha]

Give whoever cut the Bohemian Rhapsody trailer an award because it looks like they're the true hero(es)

Patty Jenkins will save the DC Universe. Maybe.

I'm now expecting this to end up in the mid-40s on RT and maybe 50% MC score.

And please, pay no attention to IMDb for at least a good 10 days after release. That 9.8 score will drop like a rock.

And people were wondering why I have no faith in Justice League even after a not so bad trailer.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Ayyyyy

I saw it coming but I'm still very disappointed. Holding out hope for Wonder Woman.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Man, when even IGN's review is a 5, that's a bad sign.
Fuck, this DC thing is not going to happen, isn't it?

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

Marvel's checks cleared.

 

[SilentRob]

So far so good

 

[Phediuk]

The Deadpool trailers weren't that great either, and that turned out to be great. Besides, were people really looking at this as a comedy?

Is it not a comedy?

That's sure what the trailers have looked like. Or at least, attempting to be a comedy.

 

[dragonflys545]

DC can't catch a break... Maybe they should give their heroes a break from getting onto big screens.

I'm fine with Marvel only movies.

David Chen is doing a live periscope now.

https://www.periscope.tv/w/1nAKEbWqmqYGL

He said the movie felt heavily edited. "Edited to hell."

 

[MrV4ltor]

Let's hope they release the first cut that was shown during early screenings on Blu-Ray.

 

[streetsahead123]

I look forward to many more months of DC fans claiming critics are easier on Marvel movies.

They're not. Marvel's just capable of crafting movies with coherent storylines and characters that feel like actual people.

DC finally lightens up with a fun, grimy anti-hero team-up. Not even Harley Quinn can save the whole Squad, but as a sideline stop on the way to ‘Justice League,’ it’ll do.

 

[SnowFlakeCake]

It's one of those time when you think they can't keep fucking it up, but they manage to lower the shit bar that bit more.

I hope Affleck is directing one of the movies.
