After seeing the trailer showing DC’s most eclectic superbad team throwing out zingy one-liners and doing wild stunts to the tune of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” you’d expect Suicide Squad to be a fun, subversive romp brought to life with neon-laced style. And it certainly is… for the first act of the movie. From there, it loses its zany charm and becomes something familiar, unexciting, and, worst of all, predictable. There are some enjoyable elements, namely certain standout performances from the star-studded cast, but that’s not quite enough to prop up the uninspired plot.
Hard-ass Amanda Waller sees the arrival of Superman as a wake-up call. She uses the fear his power instills to bully the U.S. Government into letting her assemble Task Force X, a group of their worst incarcerated criminals. The intent is to send the team on suicide missions against super-powered threats in exchange for time off their rather lengthy sentences. Thus, the movie enters its best stretch as we cue the stylistic intros for hitman-for-hire Deadshot (Will Smith), violent and Joker-obsessed Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), black-magic witch Enchantress (Cara Delevingne), tatted-up pyro El Diablo (Jay Hernandez), human crocodile Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje), and Australian pile of useless Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney).
