Suicide Squad Non-Spoiler Review: Is DCEU Fixed ?

'Suicide Squad' has finally arrived on theatre across the globe this weekend. mixed responses and criticism are widely separated between the fans and critic (Rotten Tomatoes in particular). The fans are hugely excited meanwhile critic's responses are still remain as same responses as 'Batman v Superman'. 'Suicide Squad' just got 26% of Rotten Tomatoes' rating so far. Regardless of those mixed responses between fans and critics, there are some worth highlights to be reviewed on the movie .

1. The Story Telling

The first highlight is of course from the storytelling. 'Suicide Squad' is using a lot of flashback sequence to tell the origins story of each an every member of the squad especially Deadshot, Harley Quinn, Enchantress, and El Diablo. It is fine, but it is make the movie is a little bit bored in the first 20 minutes. I though the introductions of each character should have been done in just couple of seconds. I'd rather to see how they are teaming up together rather than telling the origins story in old fashion way. It is a little bit confused of why they are suddenly teaming up together and having a good chemistry instantly even though they are villains who have a problem with social affairs.

2. The Squad

The characterization of each character was done well by the Cast. Deadshot (Will Smith), Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie),  Amanda Waller (Viola Davis), El Diablo (Jay Hernandez) were doing such a good job. They were becoming the main headline in this movie.

Deadshot is stealing the show and becoming the backbone of this movie. Harley Quinn is just lunatic and unstable. Margot Robbie shows us the most precise live action version Harley Quin's character in live action as cool as in the comics. Amanda Waller is also making a huge statement in this movie. She is just the horrible boss who handle the horrible squad. Amanda Waller is even worse then the 'worsts of the worst'. Viola Davis potrays a good and precise characterization of a women who should assemble a team full of villains. Who would have thought El Diablo were stealing the show, who would have though ? not so much people maybe. El Diablo was so significantly stealing the show, He shows us some of the memorable and crucial scene in this movie. He becomes the vital member of this squad. Others like Rick Flagg (Joel Kinnaman) Capt. Boomerang (Jai Courtney), Katana (Karen Fukuhara) and Enchantress (Cara Delevingne) were done some good jobs.

3. Villain(s) Performance

The villain in this movie is quite unpredictable, no one would have ever thought this maybe.  The villain in this movie introduces us to the magic world of DCEU. The magic world which will continue to The Justice League. yet, the villain in this movie wasn't gave us a memorable scenes. the villain characterization is need to be strengthen unless it will became the member of the list of forgettable comic villains in live action movies.

4. Joker's Screen Time

Jared Leto's Joker in Suicide Squad is quite remarkable. Jared Leto introduces us to the new kind of Joker. He potrayed the villainous megalomaniac, gangster boss, tactical expert, negotiation expert, and a good flirter for Harley Quinn. He just combined Jack Nicholson's gangster/mafia boss style with the intellectual of Heath Ledger's Joker. But, the time screen of this 'Suicide Squad' Joker is less than our thought. with the expectation of what we'd seen on the trailer just making us curious and making us need more Joker's screen time. Almost all of the Joker scenes have already been seen in the trailer. So, there isn't any surprising yet significant scene left of Joker's appearance n this movie.

There is a lot of good things in this movie which we should enjoy, such as the performance of the cast, numerous of humor which introduces us a new tone of DCEU, good and accurate comic references. Yet, there is numerous problem in this movie and it needs to be fixed, such as an average and bored storytelling, the antagonists (real Villains), Joker screen time optimization. nonetheless, lets enjoy and enjoy some of the good stuffs while DC and WB fixing those problems and at least those mistakes wouldn't be repeated in future DCEU movies.
