Lafrance-I knew I wasn't the only one that saw a good movie in there and yeah, I think the studio fucked it up for everyone. thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21463545.post-91115810142544523112017-06-30T15:55:01.862-07:002017-06-30T15:55:01.862-07:00"an intriguing but extremely messy film"..."an intriguing but extremely messy film" is a very apt description of this movie. The way I look at SUICIDE SQUAD is this: there's a good movie trying to get out. Sadly, it was a victim of studio interference, taking the final cut away from Ayer and butchering it. But it certainly has its moments, largely Harley Quinn and Captain Boomerang - both scene stealers extraordinaire. They kept me interested for the duration.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164105442273577128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21463545.post-87436083756847581132017-04-25T14:03:57.633-07:002017-04-25T14:03:57.633-07:00@ruth-I was entertained by this as well though I f...@ruth-I was entertained by this as well though I felt it was a let down in a lot of ways as I all of that tampering from the studio really hurt the film.<br /><br />@Wendell-I think this is the best performance Will Smith has given in quite a long time as he had some gravitas as well as be humbled by what he is doing. I actually liked him a lot and wanted more of him. It's watchable and I don't mind seeing it again but it really fell short of its expectations.<br /><br />@Brittani-It is a disappointment as I think there is a good film somewhere but Warner Brothers fucked it up for everyone. I wanted to like Jared Leto's Joker but I felt he went too far in not making him engaging enough as he relied too much on being creepy. Heath Ledger's Joker at least was funny in a dark way.<br /><br />@Sati-I could watch Margot as Harley read a phone book and it would be fun. She was awesome as I had a smile on my face whenever she's on screen. Yes, David Ayer is a piece of shit and to call out Marvel like that makes him look like an idiot. And this is someone people think is a great filmmaker.... please. thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21463545.post-57389417722116033152017-04-25T12:40:36.829-07:002017-04-25T12:40:36.829-07:00It's just such a mess but I agree that Margot ...It's just such a mess but I agree that Margot is phenomenal. It's such a shame she wasn't given a chance to play Harley in a better movie.

I was torn between "This needs more Joker" and "Ugh, then I have to see Leto again." I really adore him as an actor but I never want to see him play the Joker this way again.

The movie would've been helped by having a better villain as The Enchantress was a joke. Still, I liked the movie as a whole.Dellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634519605152190304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21463545.post-19788436080662744642017-04-22T14:58:09.855-07:002017-04-22T14:58:09.855-07:00Hi Steven!

I was entertained somewhat, but I still wouldn't call this a good movie by any stretch.ruthhttp://flixchatter.netnoreply@blogger.com
