Suicide Squad

Smith (Focus), Robbie (Focus), Courtney (Man Down), Hernandez (The Expanse), and Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Oz) are criminals with special gifts we are recruited by the government to help protect against "special" people that come to attack Gotham City and Metropolis. Kinnaman (The Killing) is the military guy in charge, Davis (Prisoners) is the government official in charge of the project, and Delevingne (Pan) is both a good guy & a bad guy. This is the 3rd movie in a long line of DC Comic movies. Superman, Batman v Superman, and now this film. There are a lot of cameos. Leto (The Outsider) does an amazing job at being the joker. The soundtrack is great. Ayer also wrote the remake of SWAT and other films like Training Day - there is some comic cheese, but otherwise it's an ok plot. He does an ok job filming. Do I think it could have been better and more bad ass - yes - even if it meant being three hours long. All in all, I say: SEE IT - see the other two first - and see before Justice League comes out.
