Just saw it. For me - it's a 6.5/7 out of 10. Enjoyed it more than B v S, but you can tell that the studio put their mark all over it.
I agree with the cats who said that Will, Margot and Viola carried it. Joel Kinnaman was
as was Jai Courtney.
That moment where they recreated the Alex Ross picture of Harley and the Joker in the tux and Harlequin suit had me
though.
Jared was cool as a modern Joker. Not the iconic timeless force of nature lunatic that Heath was, but - whatever. I think they probably did that man a disservice by leaving so much of him on the cutting room floor. I know the sequences they cut out just from seeing the fan footage. They probably didn't want to have to answer questions about Joker giving Harley the hands.
The action was cool
I didn't really fukk with Enchantress like that as the main villain.
The music was
. Like who sees footage and thinks - "You know what would make this scene perfect? Come Baby Come by K7
" Good for those brothers getting a check but
Guardians threw a lot of pop music in the mix, but they at least gave it context.
Would have loved to see them do the stadium story from the recent incarnation, and have Waller narrating/ guiding their mission like the DJ in 'The Warriors', or something. Maybe even throw Slade Wilson in as a Basilisk merc instead of Mad Dog the bounty hunter, and have him become Deathstroke at the end of the movie.
But, yeah - it was aight.
I feel for Ayer having to bang out a script in 6 weeks and then having it butchered.
