Suicide Squad: a monumental misfires – Le Figaro

CRITICISM – Annoying, silly, sloppy … The film of David Ayer, released in theaters this Wednesday, August 3, however, was the most anticipated blockbuster of this summer

Suicide Squad was undoubtedly one of the films not to be missed this summer. Released in French cinemas this Wednesday, August 3, the blockbuster from director David Ayer signed iced bored spectators, many came at the premiere at the Grand Rex.

Still, the trailers were selling the dream, offering a pop and colorful universe complete with a quirky humor. A real breath of fresh air after too serious and gloomy Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice worn by Zack Snyder

Adapted. the 1987 eponymous comic book created by John Ostrander, Suicide Squad tells how Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) established after the death of Superman, a secret government team, Task Force X, to preserve the world for future scourge.

The squad consists of the greatest psychopaths and criminals from the DC Universe including Harley Quinn, Killer Croc, Deadshot or El Diablo, the Mexican arsonist. If the comic is intended irreverent, sexualized and violent adaptation of David Ayer holds rather a parody of X-Men: Apocalypse children , staging a witch / implausible ancient goddess who wants to destroy the universe.

A visual carnage and screenplay

Disappointing, the term remains much too light to designate this new production of Warner. After the murderous and justified criticism, against the feature film from Zack Snyder, is not expected with Suicide Squad , which promised to be the revival of the film universe DC, such a visual and screenplay carnage. Developed a dozen angry fans went out of the room after a half hour after the start of the film. “It really takes us for idiots!” Says one of them

The production has invested a huge sum ($ 175 million) in the film and the result is clear. Catastrophic . Over the plot progresses, the viewer is drowned by the inconsistencies of the scenario. The soundtrack pop-rock, which appeared originally a good idea, comes together to trigger the overdose. As for the sparkling colors, they disappeared from the first thirty minutes, giving way to a dark and sloppy visual.



Two hours of suffering

casting level, Margot Robbie plays a pitiful Harley Quinn. Instead of being sexy, Joker of the bride turns into a shopgirl brainless that continues to wiggle without raising the thermostat above the knee.

As for the delivery Jared Leto in the iconic role of the Joker? One would certainly do without. The brief appearances of the protagonist of Requiem for a dream , which denied having put his whole soul into the character (in some macabre send gifts on the set), do not laugh, or even smile the public. Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney) and Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) are fully transparent. Only Jay Hernandez pulls out of the game in El Diablo facing a Will Smith hogging the camera.

Suicide Squad would have to stick to a short film of two minutes, just a trailer. The audience certainly not deserved these hours of suffering. This new production risk this time of the death knell for the DC Comics franchise.
