Why watch this?
Welcome to DC comic's version of the Dirty Dozen.
Plot Summary:
Desperate to counter new meta-human threats in a world without
Superman, the ruthless Amanda Waller assembles Task Force X, a
squad of dangerous super villains held captive in Belle Reve
prison. Waller forces the villains, including Deadshot, Harley
Quinn, and others, to undertake perilous black ops missions,
using explosive devices implanted in their necks to ensure
obedience. The team is sent on their first assignment to combat
a mysterious and powerful entity threatening the world.

Dad's Preview: This film is tied into the
Zach Snyder's DC Extended Universe (DCEU);
both Batman and Flash make cameo appearances. It jumps
around a little too much and parts are downright silly.
I can, however, almost overlook all of that thanks to
the brilliant casting of newcomer Margot Robbie as the
insane, ass-kicking Harley Quinn. She steals every
scene. Luckily, she remains part of DC's future, as she
is prominently featured in films by new DC skipper,
James Gunn. |
