I sat down to watch immediately with bad expectations, because the film was destroyed by everyone who was not lazy. At the beginning, I will name a few pluses: there is its own color style, similar to an attempt to paint black into a rainbow, there are some successful scenes-pictures (as Croc floats, as the Sorcerer moves), some characters turned out successfully (Waller is an exact hit to the canon). We're done with the pluses. The concept itself looks uncertain and lacks foundation. A good film should be built around charismatic characters (Sherlock Holmes, Jack Sparrow, John Connor), either around a significant event (historical films, catastrophes, Titanic, Speed), or intrigue (da Vinci code, detectives, mind games), but there is really none of this: a team of almost unknown villains struggles with nothing more than against the background of an unsaturated setting. The characters are undisclosed, the event is banal and a hundred times seen, there is no intrigue at all - went to wet and still soaked. What do Croc, Diablo and Deadshot do in this team, I understand, but why do they need Harley, Boomerang and some instantly merged Indian, who are the most ordinary people? Was it the military that was going to confront superheroes who could withstand a nuclear bomb? The motivation of the characters to go on the task "or else I will tear my head down" is not that insufficient, but it is interesting to the owners of the head, not the viewer. As for the setting, you can immediately see the difference with Marvel - they take bright and / or well-known places and images of events for the scene: the East stinking of terrorism, impoverished Brazil, openwork Asgard, yurody Eastern Europe, Nazi bunkers, Siberia with men with balalaikas and Ushankas, and with each of these places there are some ideas, emotions. What's here? It's just some faceless nouneim city. The plot consists entirely of holes and assumptions. The sorceress for some reason occupies the body of a scientist not forever, but lets her live by herself. She has teleportation and doesn’t use it to instantly kill all her enemies and get everything she needs. He also has telekinesis and hardly uses it to save his beloved brother. Stands within a metre of his heart and for some reason does not kidnap him. Why she would destroy the world is unclear. Batman goes to take a Deadshot in the dumbest unprofessional way, hoping for it. The Joker for some reason offers his wife to a random gangster, and it is completely unclear how to react. Helicopters crash three times in a movie, and each time there is no scratch on the characters. The whole scene with Harley's escape looks superfluous and ridiculous, because she immediately went back, when cutting this scene into a bucket, the film loses nothing. Why is Waller shooting his staff of operatives? Should she then put all the soldiers who participated in the operation and its preparations into the generals' office? Diablo is turning into an analogue of the Ghost Rider - and why? This ability looks very different from the pyrokinesis we've been shown before. The ending is stolen from "300 Spartans": kneel in front of the enemy to more conveniently strike. The music in the film is not bad, but all of these tracks are not written specifically for the film, but just taken ready-made hits, some 10-20 years old. I mean, music is like no music. As a result, this is not a film, but a set of almost random scenes that do not have logic and connection with each other, a big clip for bayany hits. Watch the cartoon "Attack on Arkham", it is 3/4 the same content, but much more thoughtful and, oddly enough, older.
