Easely one of the best hero movies out there, a master piece by james gunn, a fresh experience to those who were let down by the disaster of the 2016 movie.

Even though I am a fan of James Gunn and this movie is leagues better than Snyderverse it was still overstuffed with too much pointless meandering going on. It needed a better edit, maybe shaving off about 30 minutes would make the film flow better.

The Good:

The characters are great everyone gets to do a little bit of something and watching them bounce off each other was the highlight of the film.

Will Smith not returning was a bit sad and I love that Idris Alba was not in as a replacement, he has his own personality, and if Will ever returns they will have a great vibe.

M. Robbie is now the definitive live-action Harley little by little getting more into the role over every film she has starred in, this film truly made me want to see this Harley with a Joker sadly they blew their load on that already.

Rat Catcher 2, Polka dot man had slightly more humanizing roles even though they do not have a lot of dialogue. Cena is a great entertainer as always and he borderlines on cringe but does not go fully into that territory. King Shark, Groot and Hulk in a bar is a film I wanna see make it happen please !!!

The premise is great and true to a suicide squad story nothing is what it seems and the plot unfolds and changes in unexpected ways and villains die a lot. Although the final main antagonist will not be much of a surprise for most DC animated fans, the movie is aimed at the masses and works well the way it is written. On a side note this was a great first live screen appearance of the final antagonist.

The Bad:

Every individual element of the film works well and is fun as a whole, it still does not justify the above 2-hour runtime. The opening act and the climax are perfect and I would not change anything, everything was tight and streamlined. Not too sure what happened in the middle section.

Harley's side plot was fun but way too long for the way the plotline is resolved. Not just Harley plotline but a lot can be edited out of the whole second act and still keep and resolve every story beat we have in the final cut that was streamed. I do not think this is a film-specific issue but rather the 'it's on streaming service so we can just keep everything in' mentality to allow films to pointlessly meander instead of editing it for a more smoother experience.

Final Words;

This movie was a better watch than 2016, but DC as a whole has evolved since then shows like Doom Patrol and Superman and Lois and the excellent DC animations prove that DC is capable of giving us great stuff.

This was a great and fun watch, although editing about 30 minutes from it would have made it an amazing and fun watch. Collapse.

I originally found Suicide Squad (2016) more entertaining than the remake due to the fact that there was a little more story, although the unique format, at times laugh-out-loud comedy and awesome battles, I believe this version is better than the original.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This was a well-made movie and way better than the first suicide squad. The plot was well done, and interesting the part at the end of the US involvement in the project and leading to casualty and peacemaker fight was really well made. James Gunn wrote a great story. THe performance too was amazing. Margot Robbie killed it as HQ and the other characters acting too was great. The casting was spot on. The reworked characters like Rick Flag and others had a good arc than the first one. It was also good to see the movie being cruel and R-rated rather than DC trying to make it Pg-13 allowing the characters to be truly themselves. The last 1-hour fight too was well made. A great movie well done. Expand

James Gunn does it again, made a grand slapping movie. My only problem with the movie is some jokes being unfunny, but other than that it's just amazing, probably one of my favorite DC movies next to Joker.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's a really amazing, funny movie. The opening was great, the whole **** team dies (except for Harley) to tell the viewer: "We're done with the old Suicide Squad ****." It was nice to see how Captain Boomerang kicked the bucket. However, it was clear to see that they copied Deadpool 2 with that. The film is just a hilarious, gory mess. Like Deadpool, but only the good parts. The jokes and the action are top notch, and the story is ridiculously stupid, yet never takes itself seriously. It often feels retro, like a Cold War movie, but the retro style is stunning. The Latin American sets are beautiful. And Starro, the giant starfish, is exactly the right villain for such a goofy story. My only complaints are that the movie is a little too long, and they never let King Shark go completly savage. Maybe in the sequel. Expand

Marvel/Disney or one of their countless imitators still put out enough to tickle my fancy from time to time, but I'm finding it more and more difficult to get truly excited about whatever big event is on its way to theaters (or streaming) next, when the majority of it is either another by the numbers cape-and-costume flick or a remake/revival of some long-dormant nostalgia property that probably would have been better off left in the past. Heck, even the stuff not connected to a grand cinematic universe is often guilty of following the exact same formula with the hopes of achieving a little taste of the box office domination regularly experienced by the comic book characters in their tights and spandex, and that distinctive MCU style of shoehorning comedy into everything has been slowly creeping its way into so much as the bloody horror genre as of late.

That's one area where the DCEU has kind of impressed me. Yeah, the results have been mixed at best to put it lightly, but at the very least Warner Bros. and DC Films have shown a willingness to attempt unique things with most of the various properties they've added to it so far. The Suicide Squad standing as a fine example of that.

In an effort to make up for the absolute disaster that was 2016's Suicide Squad movie, James Gunn was reportedly given almost complete freedom to come up with his own vision for the project and put it onscreen as he saw fit. The end result isn't something that radically breaks the mold, but rather works well enough within the confines of it to put some one of a kind spins on the established set of familiar elements and walk away with an identity all its own.

Gunn is obviously extremely educated in the various obscure nooks and crannies of DC Comics long history, and liberally pulls from lesser known corners of it to deliver a bevy of names and plot devices only the most hardcore of nerds will recognize and that nobody would have ever guessed would make their way to the screen at some point. Ditching the ghetto Hot Topic costume designs of its predecessor and its kind of, sort of spin-off Birds of Prey, the appearances of the villains here are often very faithful to, or a creative new take on, their comic book counterparts. Which naturally leads to a cast of faces, as well as powers, that honestly look blatantly odd next to each other, gleefully reveling in the absurd diversity of uniting such awide array of source material, and I'm 100% here for it.

The expected blend of action and humor gets a little extra flavor due to the R-rating. All the naughty words and gore manage to differentiate themselves from what you'd find in Deadpool thanks to the singular personality and attention to detail of the director. So every gag and bloodbath compliments the surprisingly great story well, while giving each member of the team a real, significant sense of contribution Guardians of the Galaxy-style. I can't praise the narrative enough for really tackling the supremely messed up nature of Task Force X and getting me invested in the political side of a superhuman conflict in a way I haven't since The Winter Soldier. For all the laughs and goofs, this is a legitimately dark tale with a lot of bodies left behind against their will and a conclusion that's just a touch tragic since nobody will ever find out the true reason behind why these prisoners were sent basically to die.

While this does nothing to grant us any insight into what's next for the DCEU or if its owners actually have any idea what they're doing with it at all, it does however finally give fans the Suicide Squad adaptation they deserve, while managing to standout from the pack by the virtue of its individualistic flourishes. Despite my overall fatigue and somewhat indifference with the whole superhero craze lately, I'd be legitimately interested in and hyped for a third outing. Particularly if James Gunn's name is attached to it again. Which is saying quite a bit when you consider how much of the MCU and its far more proven track record I still have to play catch-up on because of how willing I've been to let it pass me by at present.

James Gunn and Suicide Squad? It has to fit and it does! Phenomenally good and funny action entertainment with a very charmingly selected team or teams?

The beginning is brilliant and I was literally overwhelmed by the consequences of the film. Sometimes a brutality stands out that I didn't expect at all, and yet the film always remains funny and is told in a well-structured way.
It's not just crazy psychos who are now shooting everything away: the characters have been given soul and depth and the troupe grows on you as the film progresses.

The whole thing is paired with a great comic look feeling, which James Gunn has implemented very strongly. I always found the transitions to scenes in particular to be cool and creative. But exactly the same when instead of blood squirting flowers just sprout.

I wouldn't have expected the way the antagonists were dealt with either, but it makes the film totally unpredictable and well worth seeing. The final showdown is then the icing on the cake. All of the characters have their moments, and John Cena made me think of Homelander all the time.

There are also really crazy looking characters, especially the Weazel.

Absolute recommendation from me.

As a snyder fan I found this movie fun to watch, R rated the way it should be, the squad still act like a bunch of crazed misfits while trying to save the world.

That being said after seeing James Gunn untouched vision I really want to see David Ayer's true movie of HIS Suicide Squad before WB butchered it with 10 week reshoot, much like the infamous WB/Whedon Josstice League we finally got the REAL, TRUE, ACTUAL movie by Snyder.....Zack Snyder's Justice League, and I want the same for Suicide Squad 2016......#ReleaseTheAyerCut #RestoreTheSnyderverse

Its more along the lines of a Dark comedy. With a great twist at the start which gave me a good laugh. James Gunn is a huge douchebag but hes a talented director for sure. The Story is pretty straight forward of go on a mission that has a low chance of survival. The Movie made me chuckle quit a bit, I enjoyed the action and darker tone of the movie as its very bloody and violent.

Hopefully we see more R rated Comic Book movies

En-US: The experience of watching the movie for me was impressive. The comic feel that James Gunn gave to the film managed to be completely faithful to what the suicide squad really is in the comics. It not only represents the comic book faithfully, it also gives an extremely satisfying feel to almost every scene. It's not predictable, it's well scripted and completely fun to watch. Without a doubt, one of the best DC movies in the last 10 years.

James Gunn let us into his twisted mind and showed the power of an auteur. The opening 20 minutes was a 10/10, Tarantino quality and GOTG humor at its peak. The middle was middling. Harley's abilities are just getting wackier by the movie. Is she Nebula? Is she an alien pretending to be Harley? Is she mainlining Bane's venom? Her subplot was so out of left field. I just don't understand her character. Had the same thought about Elba's character as a certain building collapses. The end was satisfying but the movie never regained the heights of the opening.

Sure, it's the kind of murder porn you'd expect from an R-rated film by a director who got his start at Troma Entertainment.
The thing is, it's just well made. The characters are well developed and you might actually care what happens to them. The story isn't deep, but a great framework for the film. The action is definitely exciting and the humor had me actually LOL at least once.
I don't like Gunn personally, but I can't deny this is a well made film by a man with serious film making skills.
I can find little to nitpick. It's not Casablanca or Citizen Kane, so it's not a 10, but it is excellent.
I still think everyone should try not to let them get your money, but catch this if you can. A fun ride (if you can handle _REALLY_ icky gore).

There are some logical errors here and there and sometimes the story takes a back seat but I excuse it a little bit because the information and jokes they present more than make up for the slow pacing most of the time. All of the characters are interesting, even the ones that only show up for 5-10 minutes. They may not get a ton of development but their interactions with other characters is great and their dialogue is snappy and funny. The characters that get a lot of development and time on screen are all great. While there are definitely characters I like more than others, I really liked all of them with Harley Quinn, King Shark, Polka Dot Man, and Ratcatcher 2 being standouts. My only minor nitpick is that I do wish Peter Capaldi’s Thinker was in the movie more but that’s mostly because I adore Capaldi. All of the performances are great even from John Cena which I was kinda surprised about. The humor hits pretty hard a majority of the time. I found myself laughing out loud at points because the film knows how to use its comedy properly. The use of gore is incredibly over the top and I think it makes the film better. It helps it stand out from other hard R superhero gore fest films like Joker and Deadpool because of Gunn’s directorial style. The soundtrack here works a million times better than the original film. It works with the scenes and adds to the comedy and tone. The visual effects are pretty great most of the time with some awkward moments here and there and the cinematography was surprisingly great. You could definitely tear apart this movies flaws in terms of story but it doesn’t bother me that much. This film is too much fun to hate. I would definitely recommend checking this out as soon as you can. Expand

Ratcatcher 2 and Polka Dot Man are the stand outs for me, with a powerhouse performance from Idris Elba, and the always funny John Cena utilized perfectly here. The laughs never stop throughout the two hour runtime, and it's ultraviolent tone keep the stakes high at all times. It's a thrill ride from start to finish and a superior movie in every way to the first Suicide Squad. One of the best films of 2021. Expand

Better action, good humor, lots of blood, easter eggs, good fx.
Watchable by audience of different ages (but not suitable for children...this isn't a classic superheroes movie...there is violence,gore and mature thematic) Enjoyable if you didn't see the first one or even if you didn't read one super-heroes comics (or videogame, or cartoon) in your life.
Good Job.
Batman fans will be a little upset by some character revamp (like King Shark dumbness) but it's not a big deal.
It isn't an oscar movie of course...it feels like a b movie of the 80's...Just relax and end enjoy a good unpretentious entertainment

Second, Snyder, Ayer and Gunn are good friends. Dawn of the Dead, was written by JamesAll Snyder and Ayer fans should know three things before they give this movie negative reviews. First, Zack Snyder is the executive producer of this movie. Second, Snyder, Ayer and Gunn are good friends. Dawn of the Dead, was written by James Gunn himself. And third, James Gunn supports the Snyderverse. He himself said he wants to see the Ayer Cut. And this is Suicide Squad. It's always going to be a different team. So both can coexist. With all that said, let's move on to the actual review.
The thing I like about James Gunn's movies is that he doesn't take anything seriously. This is the reason why we get to see many weird things happening which we won't normally see in any other director's movies. There are many such instances in this movie itself, most particularly in the beginning where TDK uses his detachable arms to slap the enemy soldiers. There are also King Shark, whom Gunn manages to make terrifying and cute at the same time, there's Harley Quinn of course, who imagines weird things and then acts accordingly, and there's Bloodsport who acts all tough but gets scared of a rat.
The comic timing is what makes this movie so good. All the characters have something unique to offer, and all of them are making the scene more exciting. I really liked that part where Harley Quinn comes out of the building and sees everyone coming in to save her. There are also other scenes where I couldn't hold my laughter, like King Shark raising his arm and saying "Hand!" (for that matter all King Shark scenes were great). Many deaths come up unexpected, and the movie gives us enough reasons to care. So it's always a flinching moment whenever someone dies.
My favourite character in this movie, which must have become obvious by now, is King Shark. Whenever he is on the scene we know something good is going to happen. Even when he is not doing anything he just stands there adorably. I also like Peacemaker. His dialogues are great, and every time he speaks it's something funny. Bloodshot also has some really great action scenes along with him. Ratcatcher II and Harley Quinn were also hilarious when needed. The team that comes in the start really sets the mood and I really hope they do something great with Weasel. He looked interesting.
I have only read one Suicide Squad comic (Rebirth) and watched three movies (the 2016 one, this and Hell To Pay). So I won't call myself an expert on the franchise. But seeing how Kill the Justice League is also seeming to be in similar tone, I believe Suicide Squad is supposed to be this hilarious rollercoaster. And this movie absolutely stands by it. I'd really hope we get to see at least like, ten Suicide Squad movies and shows in this decade.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Suicide Squad was epic, one of my top 5 favorite movies I've ever seen I loved ever second. James Gunn's direction and writing was impeccable, the stylistic choices like for instance the flowers exploding when Harley killed the guards or the environment being used to make the on scene subtitles that said things like "8 minutes earlier" and the hilarious and dark humor and jokes but stilling having some more serious and touching moments everything he did with this movie was perfection but it was no surprise cause he is one of the most talented film makers out there. The performances were exceptional, one of the best ensembles I've ever seen, especially from Margot Robbie, Idris Elba, David Dastmalchian, John Cena, Daniela Melchior, Joel Kinnaman, Sylvester Stallone, and Viola Davis also though their performances were lesser or short-lived Pete Davidson, Nathan Fillion, Jai Courtney, Peter Capaldi, Sean Gunn, Flula Borg, Michael Rooker, and Mayling Ng gave great performances too. The action sequences and fight choreography were awesome. The visual effects were spectacular especially Starro. The costumes were outstanding. The makeup and hairstyling was superb. Also the music was terrific. An A+ movie. Expand

I don't have a problem with gore, but like many things in life, moderation and timing is key. Gunn seemed to use it more freely which watered it down and made it less "cool." Other than that, it was refreshing. Better than the other recent superhero flick, Shang Chi (which is also good but just a little less so). Expand

script here is like perfect.
Action and actor directing is on very high level too, problem begins with the pacing.
Structurally this movie is not referring into acts and it's coming with idea of something like chapters, which work perfect in final result, but creates problems with pacing.
Instead of this film is really, really close to perfection.

This Suicide Squad movie actually felt like a movie and not something Frankensteined together by a studio.

The movie is darkly humorous, but still serious enough for you to care about the plot and the characters. Even villains unknown to those that might not be familiar who don't read comics, such as myself, were brought alive in an interesting way. Especially Polka Dot Man and Ratcatcher 2 stood out, but all the characters and actors did a great job.

Would definitely like another Suicide Squad movie in this vein if James Gunn is behind it, doesn't even have to be this squad. Can just be another squad of anti-heroes and villain protagonist as long as it's half this interesting.

Cena and Elba's dynamic was amazing for alot of the movie and they really did a great job playing off each others character dynamics. Harley Quinn had her own stand-alone role here, with nary a mention of the Joker whatsoever. It really did a great job bringing her character into a more self-sufficient role, as opposed to her relying on the ever looming threat of the Joker to give her a role in the story. There's some meta humor here and there and everyone's role really did a great job, all the way until the end. The main bad guy is a massive in-joke to one of the earliest villains for the Justice League, but it really didnt mesh well with the overall story. Stuff kinda went off the rails in a bad way, towards the end. There wasn't as much cohesion with the script and the characters actions went against their already built up motivations built up through the movie. On its own, the ending could have worked pretty well but just didnt work for me. I'd still highly recommend anyone who is interested go watch this on HBO Max at the very least. Really makes me hopeful for another movie in the series and I definitely couldn't say that after the first one. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. E-Value: 9
Acting: 9
Plot: 9

Despite the critical failure of the 2016’s Suicide Squad, the tenth instalment in DC Extended Universe featured the return of Suicide Squad consisting of new team members along with few returning characters from the first movie as a standalone sequel under the helm of well-known director, James Gunn, who have previously directed two Guardians of the Galaxy movies before his firing from Marvel Studios and eventual reinstatement. The Suicide Squad is currently available in cinemas and HBO Max at the same.

After the events of Suicide Squad and Birds of Prey, Amanda Waller (Davis) assemble Task Force X aka Suicide Squad once again and this time, the squad is split into two teams which Team One is led by Colonel Rick Flag while Team Two is led by Robert DuBois/Bloodsport (Elba). Their mission is to destroy a Nazi-era laboratory called Jotunheim which holds a secret experimentation called Project Starfish in Corto Maltese.

During the mission, Team One suffer heavy casualties which all team members are kill in action except Rick Flag and Harley Quinn (Robbie), which the latter get capture by Corto Maltese soldiers. Meanwhile, Team Two manage to sneak into the country undetected and later found Rick Flag, who was rescued by Sol Soria, leader of the freedom fighters to take down Corto Maltese government. Not wanting to leave Harley behind as captive, Team Two devise a plan to rescue her before they can continue their mission.

Comparing this movie to the first one, this movie is a huge improvement although for the benefit of the doubt, the theatrical cut of the first movie is not exactly what director, David Ayer, intended. For one, the editing of this movie is better and not messy like the first movie. Not only the editing is better, the pacing now flows better from the beginning to the end. James Gunn have done a great job in redeeming Suicide Squad with his directing style and his writing. It really fits his style of directing and the humours he utilised are even better and not forced like the first movie. Since the movie is R rated, James Gunn took a great advantage of the rating to make the movie even more gory and violent than 2020’s Birds of Prey.

The cast have done an amazing performance in this movie. Among the casts are Joel Kinnaman who played Rick Flag, have done better job in portraying the character in this movie. He has a good character developement unlike in the first movie where he is more of a generic soldier character. As usual, Margot Robbie is still great at portraying Harley Quinn just like in the first movie and Birds of Prey. Let’s not forget about John Cena. Not only he gave an amazing performance as Peacemaker, his acting skills is so much better now and he definitely improved a lot. David Dastmalchian who played Polka-Dot Man, have done a great job in the movie especially in providing comic relief moments in the movie and turn the character from being a joke to being a badass. King Shark is great as well in providing comic relief moments and his lines are pretty funny especially the lines is done by Slyvester Stallone and credits goes to him on the way he delivered it. Although her screentime is lesser in this movie, Viola Davis still manage to play her character well like how she have done in the first movie.

Although not really a big disappointment, I felt that many characters especially the ones in Team One got killed off way too early in the movie without any character development. Not even a little development at all. Still, I have to give James Gunn some credits for about not to get too attach to the characters. Thanks to Gunn’s direction, this movie really live up to its title and being worthy to the name of Suicide Squad. As I mentioned earlier, this movie is a standalone sequel which means you do not have to watch the first movie to understand this one as there are very little connection to the first one. Last but not least, stay back for post credits scene.
