Over the years, while DC has continued to give people hope, it has also been disappointing.
Not only the kings of “Wonder Woman“, “Aquaman” and “Joker” return.
There are also “Man of Steel“, “Suicide Squad“, and “Justice League” that are not satisfactory.
Unexpectedly, after holding back for 5 years, DC finally released a big move-“The Suicide Squad“.
Looking at the poster, some viewers may think of a movie called “Suicide Squad” 5 years ago.

Don’t doubt, “Task Force X” and “Suicide Squad” are the same team.
However, although it is the same group of people, to be precise, this movie is a restart version of “Suicide Squad“, not the second one.
Moreover, to a certain extent, the film is not simply new wine in an old bottle.

In 2016, “Suicide Squad” was released after “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice“, but it was disappointing.
You know, this movie was held in high hopes before it was released.
All-star lineup + anti-hero theme, never thought that the whole story is extremely mediocre, capitalized “propaganda does not match the real thing.”
In contrast, the cast of “The Suicide Squad” is inferior to it, but it has won a battle with the story and style.

The biggest difference between the two works is that the new work is directly positioned at R level at the beginning of shooting.
In my opinion, this is what “Suicide Squad” should be like.
The reason why the film has received unanimous praise is undoubtedly the director James Gunn, who has injected vitality into the film.
James Gunn, maybe, many viewers don’t know him.
In fact, before he became famous, he was just a little-known B-level film director.
It was not until 2014, after the premiere of Guardians of the Galaxy, that he really entered the audience’s field of vision.
However, director James Gunn was criticized by a large number of netizens for making improper remarks on social media, and Disney finally decided to expel him.
Not long after this incident, Warner negotiated with James Gunn, and finally decided to re-start the “Suicide Squad” project to him to direct.
On August 6, 2021, “The Suicide Squad” will be screened in North America and will be launched simultaneously on the streaming platform HBO Max…
Just one day later, IMDb scored 7.8 points for it, Douban scored 8.2 points…
Some netizens commented: absurd jokes, plasma splashes, amazing scales, beautiful music, crazy funny but no lack of tears, dark cruel but romantic and chic.
Obviously, for a superhero movie, this has overfulfilled the task…
However, there may be some friends who are not familiar with this IP, so let’s take a look at it.
Task Force X is a famous anti-hero team under DC, also known as Suicide Squad.
Squad members are mostly villains arrested by superheroes.
These villains will be required to team up to complete some secret missions that the government cannot directly complete and are shameless.
Joining the suicide squad has an advantage. Every time you successfully complete a mission, you can get a reduction in your sentence.
Before performing the mission, they will plant a remote-controlled bomb on the back of the team member’s neck.
If you want to run, headshot.
If you are not obedient, headshot.
If you dare to disclose group and mission information to others, headshot.
At the beginning of the “The Suicide Squad” story, Waller, a female military commander, went to the prison to gather a group of “terrorists.”
The destination of this action is Tomatis, an island nation in South America.
At night, the team landed by helicopter. When we got off the plane, Weasel, who couldn’t swim, landed into a box.
Then the situation became more and more serious. As soon as Blackguard came ashore, he exposed himself as an insider and was directly shot to death.
Captain Boomerang and Mongal were also killed by guards ambushing in advance;
For the remaining few people, Harley Quinn’s bazooka output was still great, but they were also captured…
The squad was in a mess, but Waller in the headquarters smiled slightly.
On the other side of the island, a small team landed quietly.
It turns out that this wave is just a bunker for death, and Plan B is the hope for the success of the plan.
There are five members in this elite team.
“Bloodsport” Robert DuBois, used a krypton bullet to send Superman into the ICU.
“Peacemaker” Christopher Smith, King Shark Nanaue, “Polka-Dot Man” Abner Krill, and Ratcatcher 2 Cleo Cazo.
The final destination of this operation is a scientific research institution called Jotunheim.
The agency is headed by a mad scientist “The Thinker”. The “Project Starfish” secret experiment he conducted is a huge safety hazard to mankind.
Therefore, the plan for the second team is clear. Grab the thinker, dive into the laboratory, smash the plan, and go home.
But everything is not that simple…
After the No. 2 squad landed, it first went to rescue Harley Quinn.
The teammates were still commanding the climbing stairs, and in a blink of an eye, she found that she had already killed all the guards and ran out.
Of course, I don’t see who can shut down Harley Quinn…
Then, a group of people held “The Thinker” and sneaked into the laboratory effortlessly.
Here, they saw countless humans who mutated in experiments. Also, the huge Starfish from outer space.
At the same time, they learned the truth from the thinkers.
Starfish was brought from outer space by NASA, and this is just a laboratory in the United States, and the instigator is the United States.
After everyone was shocked, the ultimate insider arranged by Waller in the squad came forward. Destroying the data is the ultimate goal of this operation.
But at this time, Polka-Dot Man accidentally used a big move when dealing with the chasing soldiers, and the entire laboratory was detonated.
The huge Starfish was released.
It sows countless “seeds” and parasitizes among the human beings in the city.
Seeing this, Waller ordered all the team members to return with their documents.
But watching this city of millions of people is about to be destroyed, the team can’t stand idly by.
The first battle of the “Suicide Squad” in the true sense has just begun…
It can be said that the whole movie is full of weird and whimsical ideas, all kinds of stupid characters, silly smiles, and bloody violence that is not aesthetically pleasing but unstoppable…
And retro-style American country songs and rock music…
If you are a fan of “Guardians of the Galaxy“, I believe you can find similar fun and joy in this film…
For example, the general movie design “King Shark”, he is likely to follow the direction of “people who look like sharks”…
But the “King Shark” in this movie is designed as a “shark with hands and feet”, nine sharks, only one is a person…
The super power of this King Shark is also very simple and rude, namely: cannibalism.
It is estimated that many viewers will be cute or scared by this fat, stupid and strange character…
For example, the villain in the film is actually a “starfish”…
As soon as it raised its arm, many small starfish emerged from its armpit…
Therefore, some netizens commented: It turns out that armpits can really give birth to children. I always thought that my mother was lying to me…
Throughout the movie, this kind of fantasy-like brain hole, all kinds of unexpected creativity, cleverly conceived visual wonders, are endless and endless…
What’s commendable is that all kinds of weird ideas are kneaded together by the roller guide in a silky smooth rhythm… The viewing experience is relaxed and smooth…
Of course, as a standard popcorn movie, it will inevitably have some logical loopholes…
It ridiculed some “political correctness”, but finally returned to “political correctness” at the end…
It will inevitably appear to be a little less serious, not deep enough, a little sloppy, frivolous and vulgar…
However, today when good movies are so scarce, its appearance allows us to see the charm of movies, the fun of movies, and the vigorous vitality of movies…
Compared with short videos, mobile games, escape rooms and script kills, movies are still a fashionable way of entertainment…
