The expectations about Suicide Squad were high as the offbeat movie of anti-heroes, but it turned out to be much below the mark. The anti-heroes failed to terrorize and were more of an eyesore. Some characters need a special mention.
Killer Crocs did not seem to be villainous enough and one can hardly bear him on the screen for long. Slipknot's on screen presence was not felt at all as his role was just that while escaping he gets caught by the Special Forces.
Boomerang appeared to be more of a bully on screen rather than a villain. And, again, unlike an anti-hero, he was not at all terrifying. The most annoying character is the Enchantress. Her many masks make the character too hard to bear.
However, there are some sparks in the movie as well, which makes it worth a watch. The human fireball, Diablo possesses great powers. Though he seems to be a disappointment initially, but the fact that he has abandoned his powers makes it interesting.
Well, it is Deadshot and Harley Quinn who saves the movie. Deadshot, played by Will Smith is a gun-obsessed badass villain, who shoots, threatens and fools around with other baddies just like a villain.
And, Quinn, played by Margot Robbie is totally crazy and rather the best of the gang. As for The Joker, played by Jared Leto, the character failed to create an impact and inspire. His overacting overshadowed his hard work.
Notably, the critics of the movie have also not given favorable reviews. However, it is being expected that the movie will earn around $100 million to $140 million, according to reports. And, all the credit goes to the marketing team, who successfully created a hype around the movie, thereby encouraging movie-goers to watch the movie.
