Review: The Suicide Squad was a fun, dark, and bloody spy thriller, that gives one of the best depictions of Task Force x since Hell to Pay and Attack on Arkham. Yes, the film occasionally goes overboard with the jokes, but the movie’s cast did such an amazing job, that I’m willing to overlook its flaws. Read Our Full Review
