In short, the movie Suicide Squad isn’t completely terrible. That doesn’t make it a good movie by any stretch. The basic plot isn’t bad: The United States federal government feels the need for a group of super-powered soldiers. Think The Dirty Dozen with super powers. As I say, the basic idea’s fine. In fact, DC Comics has done multiple versions of Suicide Squad over the years. But the movie falls short for a multitude of reasons.

First and foremost, I’d like to point out the obvious: Captain America: The First Avenger works because of Steve Rogers. Long before his transformation, he’s a likeable character that the entire audience is rooting for. He’s also multi-dimensional.
