Suicide Squad 2016

The start of the movie is kind of a mess trying to explain all of the characters' backgrounds and motivations. Only way you would know who the characters are is if you already knew them from the comics. But, once it gets going it's a really awesome movie. I think the editing team on this movie should have had more time to get it right. There are a lot of hard cuts and questionable decisions in the final cut. With proper time and direction this could have had an amazing move and not just a good one.

All in all, I think this movie like Batman V Superman was made way to early in the life of the DCMU. The Universe really hasn't formed yet and all of the movies feel disconnected and are being forced together through obvious thin plot threads with no depth. We need a movie that really starts to build character history. The DCMU is in trouble if WB cannot course correct with WW and JL.
