Suicide Squad (2016)
Worst. Heroes. Ever. more like Worst. Movie. Ever. (not really)
I have exaggerated saying that is the worst movie ever, which is not a really accurate description to this movie, but it is surely in the list of worst movies ever. Same amount of jokes as an average marvel super flick has, and they're not funny. Don't blame David Ayer (completely, he may have a little bit of blame, but I'm not sure), blame the executives and people in suits behind this abomination. So here you have my list of things that structured this disaster:
1-NO SQUAD:(Potential Spoilers, maybe) It is called Suicide Squad, and there is a group supposed to be the squad, well... it is not. There is other group in the movie supposed to be the military squad and it also isn't a squad. There are no groups in the film, when it is supposed that the central theme of the movie is a SQUAD. There might be some chemistry between the members of the self-called "SQUAD", but it did not seemed to show up at some point.
2-MUSICAL POLLUTION: Classic recognizable songs, one after another, and it doesn't stop until the end of the movie (which not tops my brand new imaginary list of most ridiculous and stupid moments in film). I guess the intention of the songs is to represent somehow an inner struggle in the characters, or to ambient the moment properly, or maybe there was another intention and it didn't work. So, classic popular song #1 starts, then classic popular song #2 starts right in the middle and this one goes on for more time, but another classic popular song (#3) gets in the way, and it is annoying (at least for me and some other reviewers, not so many -by the way-). This musical formula goes on and on and on during the whole movie.
3-UNNECESARY JOKER:(Potential Spoilers, maybe) Jared Leto's joker is something else. I won't spoil it for anyone. I'll just say it is BAD. The screen time he got was way too short too judge him and analyze his performance. He is not related to the plot, at all.
4-EDITION: Quick editing, weird editing, misplaced editing. I'm not a pro-editor, but I'm aware of what is right and what is not. I have not edited a full length film, but I understand it is a tough task, that doesn't excuses Mr. John Gilroy, who has edited a large amount of good films.
5-CHARACTER ACTIONS: This might be similar to the first issue. There are only three characters that get developed, in the most superficial sense of the word, and as an audience we are supposed to invest ourselves into the feelings of these characters, and such thing does not happen. Floppy characters, some of them were supposed to be insane, but it didn't seems to be the case, some of them were supposed to be insanely aggressive, but that wasn't the case.
