I just saw this movie. As a long time comics fan I had to get to the bottom of what all the critical controversy is about. Let me just say I really enjoyed this movie. It was fun, it was entertaining, it was a COMIC BOOK MOVIE!
It really disturbs me that all the news this film is getting is for how Rotten Tomatoes gives it something like a 28%. There is no way, in the known Universe that a movie with Harley Quinn, Deadshot, and Killer Croc fighting evil can be as bad as critics say!
IT'S not!!! I loved it!!
No, it didn't change my life. No, it's not the best SuperHero movie. No, it won't win any awards. Yes, there were some flaws. Yes, it had opportunities to be better and didn't seize the chance. But again, was it entertaining? Yes. Do you get to see comic book characters kick butt on the big screen? Yes. Is it as bad as critics claim? Not even close.
I give it a 92 /A-
Seeing Harley and Joker together is worth the price of admission. Deadshot, Diablo, and Katana were stand outs for me. The 2hrs flew by. The movie theater was packed and everyone left smiling and looked pleased. I thought we were supposed to hate this movie?
It makes me wonder if the backlash against RT being rigged may have some validity.
Curious for thoughts and other reviews.
