Dang Variety... "Suicide Squad" ends up feeling more like the exec producers gonzo effects-saturated "Sucker Punch." {nm}

Embargo has dropped, SUICIDE SQUAD reviews are popping up. Variety is mixed, saying it's still pretty much stuck in BVS land notfabio Aug 02, 09:08

THR is outright negative notfabio Aug 02, 09:09

Reviews are looking slightly better than BVS in general.. {nm} notfabio Aug 02, 09:17

Drew McWeeny likes it, gives it a B+ ! Peterlee Aug 02, 09:20

Faraci: A mess that is saved by awesome actors. Antibody Aug 02, 10:44

Metacritic page for Squad budice Aug 02, 09:33

Yikes 31% as of now {nm} Mala-Droi Aug 02, 09:31

35% out of 20. {nm} Antibody Aug 02, 09:38

This is discouraging. Oh well, already bought my tickets. {nm} RollingThunder Aug 02, 09:34

RT 38% -- MC 48 .... MoS / BvS all over again. {nm} Filmstardust Aug 02, 09:56

IMDB user rating is reverse GHST3 Antibody Aug 02, 10:05

BvS had horrible reviews, got 27% on Rotten Tomatoes, and opened to $166m {nm} tomcat90 Aug 02, 10:10

Will people get burned twice by the same universe, or did they learn their lesson after last time? {nm} shadowking Aug 02, 10:15

Twice? Three time. The Killing Joke burned a good portion of the fan base just recently. {nm} medv4380 Aug 02, 14:39

IIRC, in the #1 Movie Prediction contest, the big dispute amongst the players is how many weeks SUICD remains at #1. {nm} second gary Aug 02, 10:13

I'm feeling better about only having it on top 2 weeks TwoMisfits Aug 02, 10:20

This one weird link has cured me from caring what critics say, ever again... MrZero Aug 02, 10:25

If the reviews were positive, this was going to be a slam-dunk in Opening Weekend numbers. Now it's anyone's game. ~$120M isn't crazy. {nm} chosenone2oo5 Aug 02, 11:12

I'll go out on a limb here and say that I think this one is review-proof for the OW. WAY too many people looking forward to it in key... Willroast Aug 02, 12:44

I think a lot of them were looking forward to it on the contingency that it's good--and there's a lot of time between now and Thurs. night. chosenone2oo5 Aug 02, 14:25
