Suicide Squad is the first movie I’ve ever considered walking out on. Not only was it terrible; but it was embarrassing to watch.
I hadn’t liked any DC movie since The Dark Knight.
Not Rises?
Rises didn’t feel like Batman. It had some good moments but at that point it got way too Nolan-y. It also has ridicilous plot holes and it didn’t bring anything new to the trilogy. I’ve only seen it 2 times compared to TDK which I’ve seen more than a dozen times.
Forgot about Suicide Squad. I didn’t even bother with it after first reviews came in.
Also, I don’t get how WW could be some kind of propaganda. To me that was one of the rare times the situation actually works. How can you avoid being labeled “feminist” if the movie is about a goddess who was brought up by Amazons? If she was a man and all the women were men, it wouldn’t be a problem then? Ugh. I do dislike the recent trend in recent movies with female action leads when you can feel it doesn’t work well. Even though I like Rogue One, you could replace Jyn with a guy and it wouldn’t matter one bit. That I hate. Wonder Woman is strong and smart and everything you’d wish her to be while still being all woman. If the movie was directed by a guy, I’m pretty sure it would’ve not work in these days.
