In this day and age when superhero films are a dime and a dozen, it can be difficult for movie to stand out in this crowded genre. For sometime now moviegoers have seen an array concept from superhero movies such as origin stories and team up films. However of all the type of superhero movie filmmakers can possibly conceive, one idea that yet transcend to the celluloid format has been the idea of a supervillain film. Supervillains play a major role in comics to the point where certain rogues have received their very own lineup of stories. So it only makes sense that this concept could one day be brought to the silver screen-and that day has finally come. Now in theaters is the next installment in the DC Extended Universe:
Suicide Squad. Directed by David Ayer Sucide Sqaud is based on the popular team from DC Comics that is made up of an array of villains who are tasked by the government to take on covert missions. With its massive cast, dark humor and exciting action,
Suicide Squad looked to be a blockbuster to enjoy this season; but is this supervillain film truly one of a kind or should it have remained behind bars?
Suicide Squad centers on Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) who seeks to bring some of the most notorious criminals together to become an elite task force. Sure enough Waller is successful as she requires villains such as Deadshot (Will Smith), Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney), Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) and El Diablo (Jay Hernandez). Things go array though when one of Waller's recruits, June Moone/Enchantress (Cara Delevingne) goes rogue and awakens a mystical force in Midway City. To stop Enchantress Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman) leads Task Force X into the city to deal with this supernatural threat; but that is easier said than done as the group not only has to deal with the witch's minions but also The Joker (Jared Leto)-who devises a crazy plan to get Harley back.
