    **From Director JAMES GUNN : "The Supremely Delectable Art Of, Er, HOMICIDE, 101🤦‍♂️💥😅"** ______________________________________________________ A **-{ _B I G_ }-** Screen **Micro** Review . Film Viewed By Me At **_NOVO CINEMAS_** Sharjah UAE, On August 16 ______________________________________________________ So usually, I try and maintain a somewhat orderly structure with my Reviews, namely : 'Intro->-Body->-Summation'. This time, just to 'Keep-it fresh', I just thought I'd shake things up a bit, and { quite literally } write my review, er . . . .  'backwards'. Hence, without further ado, here goes 😉❗ FINAL ANALYSIS : As a 'doting' parent, I'm going to come clean and tell you that I had a real problem with the fact that I -{ Did }- really enjoy this -Certifiably- { Decadent } "Bloodsoaked Adult Goof-fest", and in no small measure either, at that. Sure it was 'dominated' mostly by -Cartoonish- violence meant only for 'Mature' viewers, ( it has an M.p.a.a certified rating of 'R' ) ; however ...the, um, how shall I say... "Sheerly, Obscenely, Gratuitous" levels of gore in said movie -Did- somewhat take me by surprise . . . given as it comes -directly- from the Director -best- know for his ( -relatively- ) "More kosher" -M.c.u- ( 'Marvel Cinematic Universe' ) . . . blockbuster fare. HIGH POINTS : 1. "Peacemaker" : The cheeky,  sneaky', yet unequivocally -{ "Bold, Fresh & Fabulous" }- takedown of the long, long, long standing -Imperialist- tendencies ; but more significantly, the -{ "Hypocricies & Triple-standards" }- of, "Past United States Governments", -Symbolically- , of course. 2. Simply Put : basically -"Everything"- the { Stunningly 💣 💥❗ } Talented Margot Robbie, ( 'Harley Quinn' ) does ; with an 'Extra-special' mention for her -protracted- "Escape From Coronel" fight scene. 3. Daniela Melchoir, ( 'Ratcatcher-two' ) : This peculiarly endowed 'Anti-heroine' has a seiously -Bizarre- talent... but she, along with Idris Elba's 'Bloodsport', the just bespoke Margot's 'Harley' ( -and Others- ) ...end up bringing a veritable -{ " Ton Of -Unexpected & Genuine- Heart " }- to 'The Suicide Squad'. **" A Conflicted, yet -Thoroughly- Entertained, 8.50 Marks Out Of 10 From Me " ;** if only out of 'Absolute Admiration' for the 'Funny, & Insanely-Creative' James Gunn. It bears iterating that I ( -Very Obviously- ) won't be letting my kids anywhere "Near" this super-Crazy, Super-Fun picture . . . -{ However }- . . . the Reviewer in me has -Indeed- won over the Parent, in this instance, all the same 🤷‍♂️ 😂 .

    Full Review and Analysis at Spotamovie.com **The Suicide Squad – Introduction** Take the weirdest villains, give them an impossible mission, add some creepy humour, actions, colours and talent, and you get “The Suicide Squad.” If some villains in 2021 try to improve and become better people, see Cruella, for instance, we can’t say the same for our protagonists on the scene. They are looking to please the American government to gain some favour in return. However, some of them will surprise us with some good intentions and actions.It’s an exciting movie, spectacular in its genre and filled with dark humour and great character. So let’s dive into the story and some insights. **The Suicide Squad – The Story** The American government organises a secret mission to take control of “Project Starfish” in the South American island of Corto Maltese. However, a recent coup overthrew the friendly American government and, the task forces created by intelligence officer Amanda Waller needs to destroy the laboratory of the secret experiment, Jötunheim. Colonel Rick Flag leads the first team that tries to enter the Corto Maltese’s beach. At the same time, the second team leader is Bloodsport, an assassin who accepted the mission under the blackmail of the American authorities. Both teams will have to strive and survive to accomplish the critical goal. Our heroes, or villains, needs to save the world from “Starro The Conqueror”, a dangerous weapon in the hands of the not trustable Corto Maltese’s government. But also prevent a tremendous international scandal that will destroy America’s reputation in the world. Will our team succeed with their mission? What will be the price to pay? And what is the difference between a not trustable regime and one which conspires against the world for its interests?

    _The Suicide Squad_ is still one of my favorite films of the year. James Gunn understood what the real Suicide Squad is, the great action, the violence, with a nice balance of heart and humor. The performances made this film a lot better. I didn’t expect that enjoy this film even on rewatch, and even put a spot on my yearly ranking, and I hope Gunn makes more films like this. **MY FULL REVIEW** : https://boxd.it/2kVcop
