The Suicide Squad
Supervillains Harley Quinn, Bloodsport, Peacemaker and a collection of nutty cons at Belle Reve prison join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X as they are dropped off at the remote, enemy-infused island of Corto Maltese.
Critics Sentiment
First team slaughtered on beach while second infiltrates
Squad massacres rebels while searching for Rick Flag
The film peaks with the shocking beach massacre twist early on, then dips as it settles into more conventional territory before building back up.
The Suicide Squad starts explosively with a brilliant subversive opening that reviewers universally praised, then settles into more conventional but still entertaining territory. The film maintains strong character work and memorable moments throughout, with particular praise for Gunn's handling of obscure characters and the shocking Peacemaker-Flag confrontation.
