| SUICIDE SQUAD movie poster |
The movie picks up where "Batman vs Superman" left off with Superman being no more. (gee, hope you knew that tidbit) Amanda Walker, an intelligence officer, decides to assemble a crack fighting team made up of dangerous incarcerated criminals. They are in a notorious and secretive hell-hole of a prison. Walker makes deals with each of the villains in order to get them join her in the secretive mission. In charge of this rather rowdy bunch is Colonel Rick Flag. His bodyguard is Katan, a warrior with a mystical sword. But each of the squad members also has a nano bomb implanted in their neck which can be detonated should they try to cut and run or cause mayhem. Just another way to keep these criminals in line, staying focused and doing their job. Well, the thought of your head getting blown off just might do the trick!
What the supervillains are being sent out to do is destroy is a witch-goddess know as the Enchantress. She has summoned the forces of evil, including her brother, Incubus, to help her annihilate all human kind. Midway City is the first target and is besieged with all types of monsters and chaos. When Walker learns of the attack, she instructs Flag to get the Suicide Squad there post-haste. There are several underlying stories within the group dynamics, such as Deadshot and his daughter, Harley Quinn and her love interest, a young Joker, who works against the group so he can get his lover back, Killer Crock a genetic mutant, El Diablo a pyrokinetic and a thief, Captain Boomerang.
So Dear Readers, does this group of misfits work together to help save human-kind or do they cut and run? Will earth be saved from the Enchantress? Will the supervillains live to fight another day? Well, you will just have to find out for yourself as The Travelling Toe has zipped her lip on the ending! If you go so see it, wait a bit for a nugget during the credits.
This movie did rather well at the box office and part of that was due to some very interesting casting of the supervillians.
