Summertime 2016 has not been very kind to DC Comics-based personalities looking to shine consistently like their big screen Marvel Comics counterparts. Following the super-sized dud that was _Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice_ released a few months ago must really put some major pressure on Warner Bros. to gamble on ensuring that the pr...

Suicide Squad is the third and latest entry into the DCEU, and is about a bunch of bad guys that are rounded up to fight for someone else. And just like this year's BvS, this movie received overwhelmingly negative reviews by the critics and was divided among the fans. I was super curious to watch it because unlike many, I actually enjoyed...

Some semi-interesting visuals and a few characters I'd like to get to know, but an absolute mess of a movie. The thing feels like a trailer, or a clipshow, or a music video or some other sort of two-hour long promotional material for the actual _Suicide Squad_ that comes out later. _Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, ...

First, there was the story--such as it was--itself: A super villain with the power to end the world goes to work in a universe that has established Batman and Wonder Woman. So what do the authorities do? Call up Batman and Wonder Woman? Of course not! Hire a ...

**Suicide Squad could have been more if the studio hadn’t interfered in production, but what we got still entertained and debuted some amazing actors bringing these wild characters to life.** The Suicide Squad comics are some of my favorites. C-list villains are forced to run shady impossible missions for the government with the hopes ...

If you can't make a movie better than the comic, then don't make the movie.

I always think that Marvel translate average comics into good movies and DC turn good comics into average ones. DCs depth always seems lost in (at least some of) their movies and this is one of them. This could (and should) have been a good film given the budget, casting and history. Maybe it was. But if studio execs say, 'action sell...
