| Synopsis: U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller (Davis) has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to build an alternative to superheroes that she cannot trust fully. By casualty they have to fight against an enemy that was part of the team. Before any common training they have then to team up and beat the big villain in town. | |
| Review: I wanted to watch this movie because I like the plot and because I like Will Smith. I have not been disappointed by Will Smith. The acting of Jared Leto for the very secondary role of Joker is really good as well. As in Tarzan, Margot Robbie must look good and hot. Her role is actually very funny as well. The story has not much to offer. And it becomes even more previsible and uninteresting when the danger is something as supernatural as a goddess. Thus the characters had to be very worked to maintain any suspense and not all of them reach that. By luck these three actors (Smith, Leto and Robbie) build a nice and rich trio. |

Seen on 13.12.2016 on-board a plane, out of curiosity and for completeness of my super-hero culture, but I thought I would never see the end of it as it is so boring. After Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, DC Comics is continuing to create its own cinematographic universe as Marvel successfully did, but in a darker style.
ReplyDeleteOut of the trio you mention I was only impressed by Jared Leto who is indeed far too rare. Otherwise the story and stakes don't make much sense (the character of Amanda Waller!?!) and the story telling is often confused. Not to mention the beam of light pointing towards the sky which has been copied from other movies including Marvel's Avengers Assemble.
My rating: 2/10.
