Comments
jtbrowning - 25 March 2024 Absolutely Terrible You can see what they were trying to do, lots of "bombastic" idents and forth wall breaks, big cinematic scenes, high octane shoot outs / fight scenes and silly characters.
But it's bad, very bad.
Characters you've never heard of dropped in and killed off for little reason than to try and be funny, "main" characters are treated much the same.
The plot doesn't make a lot of sense either, at one point this supposed "crack" squad gets drunk in a club and start partying together.
It's all mad cap "fun" too until they drop in unnecessary and jarring gore from nowhere for apparently no reason more than to shock you out of what fun the film did bring. Further, Towards the end taking a hard right into cosmic horror with references to SA and other brutalisations.
The longer you watch the worse it gets.
DC hits new lows, and that a bar I thought only post Disney Marvel could limbo under. Do NOT watch this, you will regret it.
rikkeskovhus - 6 February 2024 Awful movie This movie is ridiculous.
You don't connect with the characters and they don't build over time. I end up not rooting for any of the characters, since I haven't gotten a reason too. Quite a shame since I love Harley Quinn (And Margot Robbie).
The jokes are poorly written, but are still better than the plot line. It's the dumbest concept I have seen in a long time.
I was bored though out the film. And I really only had one question about it. How. How did this awful film score so highly on rotten tomatoes? Making my boyfriend and I think it would be a good idea to watch it.
I never rate movies. But I was so disappointed, that I felt like a had to give a warring for the next one.
thewalkingpuns - 7 January 2023 what the DCU needed I feel like this movie is exactly what the DCU needed. A lighthearted and funny movie that at the same time can be serious. Starro being in the movie was great being the first villian that the justice leque thought in the comics. They should do that more and I loved that james gunn chose more obscure character including bloodsport, peacemaker and ratcatcher. King shark was the most fun character and he looked so realistic and at the same time scary. Harley quinn was her usual charming self and its always fun seeing margot robbie. John cena and idris elbas talk back and forth was fun at times and there was a lot of great cast especially cameos that I did not even expect. Overall a really fun remake or sequal to the original thats so much fun to watch.
thejdrage - 29 November 2022 Writing a review just for Sylvester Stallone - well .... and a bit more This is my third watch of this movie. It always entertain me. Always.
I am a massive fan of Harley Quinn - adore her. Then there's Idris Elba, the actor. Wow. I appreciate almost everything he's in. Almost.
This is a very funny movie! If you watch it closely, you'll see subtle things that will crack you up, if you're not too busy doing something else. But you do need to pay attention.
And YES!! Sylvester Stallone as THE shark! He is the PERFECT voice for that character!! Big and bold and deep. Yep. Perfect! I can't think of another actor that would better fit the shark.
Enjoy them all!!!!!
utahman1971 - 19 October 2022 What the hell...how is stupid or dumb funny? All the funny moments are actually, what the hell moments. They are not even funny. Only thing going for this movie is the action but the rest is blah. So sick of crude and rude comedy, that is not even funny stuff. People that like this, probably are that way to others. Rude and crude attitudes. I feel sorry for the actors that wanted to be in this movie. The other one was better but still thought it sucked because it was PG-13 but just because this one is R, does not mean crude and rude stupid, is anyway better. They to quit this comedy that is not really comedy out of the movies. Just tired of these kinds of movies because directors think this is what everyone loves to see. Comedy is more slapstick than stupid. I like most of the actors but Jim Carrey stuff is what this movie is like, and Jim Carrey was funny at start until he became like Eddie Murphey, and now lots of movies are bad with the stupidity of actors wanting to get paid to be stupid.
JakeTwo - 24 August 2022 HAND! When the movie is good, it's good!
Unfortunately, for me, there is a huge chunk of the movie that I don't like. It's boring, weird, takes me out if it. Which is pretty much the middle part of the movie. The beginning is good, cool & funny. Then once the characters get to where the need to be. The movie picks up fast, and becomes fantastic! It's just the middle portion, that I wasn't feeling at all. Almost feels like a different movie.
I loooove King Shark! So badass, yet adorable, and hilarious
I looove Bloodsport. As well as Elba. Killed it! A badass
Love Cena as Peacemaker. Hilarious! Perfect
I don't like Quinn. I'm ready to move of from her. Or are Least the actress. Something just isn't working. He's great in Suicide Squad. Terrible in Birds Of Prey. Now uninteresting in The Suicide Squad. 1-2 something has got to change
Overall a solid movie! 7.5
I was hoping for at least 8.0
Didn't quite live up to my expectations. But I do like it Overall, & hole for a sequel.
