Everything GREAT About The Suicide Squad!

[Music] bye [Music] [Applause] hello i'm johnny cash johnny cash is always a win that was quick three seconds earliest win who could know mr james gunn can i call you james i'mma call you gun we're not even 10 seconds in and you're easter egging us with the bell boeing v22 osprey in the background over burbank for the wb logo so the suicide squad opening credits and the trickery starts right away savant's exes on the wb wall point to this being his movie you didn't even know we were in a puddle even if you've seen the movie you forgot also fun fact this wasn't planned james gunn just saw the puddle on the day and used it [Music] i will not be showing the heartless brutal bird murder instead here's michael rooker totally pulling off crocs you know the deal successfully complete the mission you get 10 years off your sentence leave it to james gunn to acknowledge that this isn't the first suicide squad in a playful way you can feel them rushing through the introductions good dog creator of the modern version of the suicide squad comic john ostrander doing the most with his time on screen there are so many wonderful moments just in this intro blackguard messing with the cop boomer wiping his boomerang but for the love of all that is holy let's get sean gunn his own weasel movie just look at the way he walks look at the way he sits look at his eyes badass good guy wait are they are they good i mean kinda they're not all guys so badass good peeps nailed it you doing back in prison house i got road rage again not pretending like suicide squad didn't happen they both have the same crappy job but they're finally starting to get along with their co-workers i got road rage in a bank ha must have used canary's car i'm putting 20 on him but he's going to bite it grim but i feel like they know something we don't your name is lettuce all knives and lettuce seriously this cast i know it's all bait and switch and they're almost all gonna die but i would gladly watch a film with this suicide squad is this thing a dog why is it a werewolf come on you don't want at least 90 minutes of this fluffy boy solving crimes not a werewolf okay he's a weasel he's harmless i mean he's not harmless he's killed 27 children but like maybe just killing kids i can't say for sure what his deal is yet i repeat the whistle is dead it was at this point that we should have all started to get clued into what this opening was actually about i'm the one who called you oh it's that kind of movie nothing like making one of the current pop culture it guys the snitch traitor and just splattering him we need to retreat negative flag the mission is too important she means the other mission but sure this is a tough group never change margot never change flag with the john wick weapon change [Music] those are appropriate faces you knew this is how it was going to go and it still lands such an amazingly ridiculous idea to use mal for this great death it's as if he was tired of it all still genuinely bummed captain boomerang was the part jai courtney was born to play but at least he got a couple good kills in she shouldn't be funny it's not funny the setup and follow-through of making us think savann especially is portrayed by michael rooker is some sort of ultimate quiet badass and then he runs away literally in tears although no shade i'd be right behind him gun you are all right in my book using world elements for text love how it's as if the dissipation is reversed how's team two holding up ha now the movie can start and look at these titles just shut up and take my money you'll forget for a second that it's a james gunn flick and then the jim carroll band comes in with a song directly addressing the events of the movie and you remember the needle drops in this film will be pure fire [Music] ah karmic come up and this i'll show obviously well kinda gun you son of a gun i think i love you [Music] i can't win every needle drop but we're not gonna sleep on the decemberists a world-class marksman you'd be forgiven if you forgot that will smith's character was deadshot not blood sport and i honestly appreciate that they left the door open for him to come back he's in prison for putting superman in the icu with a kryptonite bullet given soup's last interaction with kryptonite he's lucky it was just a quick visit to the icu wait how do they operate on him does the entire or have to be lined with kryptonite by the way we know how accurate bloodsport can be and while bloodsport does have a somewhat similar power set and story to deadshot he's a very different character i enjoy the oh come on this again bait and switch gun my man in the state of louisiana means that under the right circumstances she could be tried as an adult props to louisiana for reminding us that the sad messed up reality we live in is a million times worse than any dc nightmare so far the most evil thing waller has done is totally legal and has absolutely happened in real life everyone stand down miss waller i don't stand down i mean she didn't even flinch badass bad girl he does exactly what i do but better fun joke that also gives a hint that while waller knows bloodsport is the born leader peacemaker will be willing to do literally anything to complete the mission so she needs two of them so smart me enjoy books so much look ron funch's version of the character from the undeniably fantastic harley quinn animated series is flawless but i gotta admit i've grown to really like sly's version and that's what i'd call a cinema fin eh where'd everyone go oops a recording of the live reaction of idris elba and john cena entering the room millennials what the borderline fascists is complaining about millennials first avocado toast now sleeping in next would be that she won't help bury her country's decades of torture abuse this is sebastian say hello i know i know with the weasel movie i'm requesting we're gonna have a lot of money invested but get sebastian his own franchise now i'm not shaking the rat's hand also an oscar hey polka dot man i was hoping you'd entertain my kid's birthday party sean gunn stealing the scene with two different weirdo characters 10 seconds apart what loki's homeworld decay sorry sorry the real dc nerds just got super stoked our intelligence sources tell us that starfish is extraterrestrial in origin okay now dc nerds are freaking out assuming the trailer hadn't spoiled it for you already known as la catita let's just type that into the old google translate whoops never mind we're all gonna die i hope so just like that polka dot man becomes everyone's favorite character i don't understand how james gunn makes comedy seem so effortless gun you minks you get me every time i look how you can just sort of make out that polka dot man is glowing in the background of all these shots before his reveal it's just a rash that's a rash well that's a dope gun flu labor giving hope to us youtubers everywhere that one day we also might get to die next to margot robbie james heavier people call my people twitter has said i'm a dilf whatever that means for what this is such a great setup this bit works even if there's no payoff so i think we're prepared for that but luckily that's not the case honestly after the opening this legit made me grab my seat it was smart to let us know no one's safe how deep of a sleeper are you i was having the most wonderful dream relatable hungry even more relatable john cena's underwear routine i mean john's seen his workout underwear i mean i cena john's underwear i mean john cena's workout routine banana oh he's offering you a pretty leaf this world doesn't deserve sebastian something about a slick-skinned shark hiding in a jungle that just warms the heart you know i cherish peace with all my heart i don't care how many men women and children i need to kill to get america literally that's not my commentary it's in the movie oh no this is so funny and brutal but definitely it's different once you know they're killing the good guys on subsequent watches this whole scene is kind of melancholy and disturbing which yeah well played gun and brutal no one likes to show off unless with their showing off as dope as i'm right back into loving this remember that brief graphic nudity warning well this is it gun flipping all the tropes it does throw polka dots at people sorry it's so flamboyant it looks cool encouragement and compliments i turned them into my mother in my head and killed them everyone's favorite character is that right waving at me oh crap he's everyone's favorite character too two favorite characters also sebastian had an excuse too i mean this is why james gunn was born to give us all the things we never thought we'd see in live-action film like the thinker with weird crap sticking out of his head and starro and all in not a crappy sea movie pumped uh everything i'd get hoped for less pumped you hold that sorrow reveal for later gun you are welcome at my house for dinner anytime it's a pleasure to serve you nice to see harley all dolled up and treated well for a change holy juan diego botto's workout routine speedo hey before coming back to the squad harley got our old tattoo covered up with something more empowering now reading property of no one really up in the indie rom-com vibe that whistle for the choir was already pouring on you are perfect you were so freaking hot [Music] and that is how babies are made didn't see it coming although chekhov's gun was lying right next to him killing kids kind of a red flag ethics win when you're tasting men is as bad as mine they don't just go away quietly they tell you that the music you like ain't real music at all or spent a bunch of time trying to like prove mathematically that imagine is a bad song tears you apart after a while if you're ever having trouble explaining why james gunn is so good this it's this this scene is built on a bit the bit is that harley is so insane that in her mind murdering a man to avoid marrying him was the most mature thing she could do because she's just sane enough to recognize real evil but then underneath the bit is this sincere monologue from margot robbie that has a crap ton of truth and probably hits home for a lot of people who are drawn to toxic relationships this is james and margot at the top of their game [Music] magnificent bastard what happened to your brothers and sisters some lived some died you mean like kaleidoscope and your mom where is she now if there is one shot that i think is the perfect example of the tone of this film it's right here it's so weird it's so funny it's so sad it's all of the things all at once and i hate it and i love it oh man not even sebastian is safe you're a good man colonel flying well he did all that stuff about his daughter you wouldn't really do that right you don't know half of what i would do john it's true she wants to kill the room full of you people staring out the window with the implication that you're contemplating your entire existence and wondering why you feel so isolated despite being constantly surrounded by people all the while sad music plays been there not way or maybe he's just still hungry my father's burdens became too heavy to carry the us caught taco tt is always a win and how about this window flashback origin story quick to the point and emotional are you worried here i'm gonna get you out of real life i'm going to get you out of here alone why not both mantis forgot the ref peacemaker i couldn't stop the smile forming on my face looking out for a little dude also a nice bait and switch softening us up to him before he goes full cia on flag only thing that makes k-flay better is cena's moves and let bite never fails so weird so funny so sad he's been piper he's been kurt let's just take a moment to appreciate that we all remember his start as joker's thug nope teamwork gun you actual stable genius you really outdid yourself this time nope that's that's illegal you can't do chapter titles this diegetic it's not allowed ah the unstoppable harleen quinzel holy crap that she just slipped him off the ground and it's a fun horror movie to reveal with her eyes opening wait did he just tell his friend he was torturing harley with emojis huh he did he did i mean those are mad skills but james i really think you need to keep tarantino off the set from now on [Music] life goes on what were you saying about the unstoppable harley quinn also holy crap how is this movie not nc17 badass former bad but trying to be good girl and now we get to see how harley sees the world again not entirely sane and if words of prey is all from her point of view it is she narrates it it would explain why it's extra stylized even her own subconscious birds know to be terrified of her and harley's pov is so powerful it's still happening in the background bird there's a bird thing happening in this movie and i'd really like to dive into that with you james well i can go back inside and you can still do it that's patronizing have i mentioned that bloodsport's mask somehow makes idris elba's golden voice even more enticing you two all right yeah i'm so sorry harley you did an art installation this time i'm i'm running out of things to say so this time i'll show you my appreciation through an art form i know you love song [Music] [Music] here's the deal we failed a mission you die if you mismatch blacks you die no yeah you better know your obsidian versus your lost soul versus your void it's just suicide well that's kind of our thing true and also david adlib is yeah yeah what now you're gonna drop some rain for this fight you know rain fights are always a win i love the rain harley gets it like angels are splooting all over us oh maybe maybe not exactly what i meant okay but this aesthetic completely blown out exposure good guy hero shot while pumping the pixies [Music] i really honestly genuinely love that these two characters care so much for each other there might be a bit of romantic tension in this glance but really they're the only stable things in their intensely bonkers lives long story short screw you peacemaker then peacemaker goes all coney and the librarian and everyone and i just i can't stay mad at him i mean if you're gonna have a giant shark beast and he doesn't rip a dude in half you've probably done something wrong gun you tricked me this time i almost believe the actual button for the floor says that bravo sir brah vote just a whole lot of nope none of the non-nope just pure nope happening i call it starto the conqueror don't we all that's one of the worst things i've ever seen but also addresses what we were all thinking just pull them off not an option but balance the thought of any such experiments being held on american soil using other countries to hide their dirty work i have never renditioned flights heard of anything like that guantanamo bay happening in the history civilian drone strikes of this this time these sun's gonna be held account i'm kind of surprised i didn't see this coming honestly john cena nailed making peacemaker such an obnoxious jingoistic absolutist i totally didn't expect him to be a real threat gross but fair after all they experimented on children so muffins again just blowing my mind with this shot that keeps going way past when you think it's over and fun fact that's not a real helmet honestly steven holder flag wouldn't have lasted five seconds with cena but this is takeshi kovac's flag and i believe he had a shot one expectation subversion i did not see flag dying and i don't think there's any coming back from that i'd call that remorse he's at least conflicted and while peacemaker has been the over-the-top caricature of patriotism throughout it's not like he's just doing stuff because he's bad arguably that was all this more than this he's a bad dude but his motivation to prevent an international conflict isn't incomprehensible shades of grey for most of these characters i guess is my point except for this a-hole splatter him all day long peacemaker what a joke but to be clear i'm with flag on this one peacemaker's idea of peace is a joke and some purely evil things have been done in the name of peace we can hear blood sport falling through the building in the background yeah gun you never cease to amaze it's a callback to the narrative device from the prologue it makes my brain hurt sure sure jumping back in time isn't like a new thing but when your entire opening is a fake out and the one week earlier thing is played off as a gimmick you can't possibly reuse the gimmick unless of course your james gun not to mention that the cutback is to slow down with nanawe sauntering along with no apparent purpose as the camera bounces to his footsteps but actually there's something deeply sad about this version of king shark that adds another layer to this film narratively very little would change without nanaway but the dueling tones of absurd buffoonery and haunting loneliness are just oh fizzle sticks adding fizzle sticks to the daily binocular yike i mean yup i mean yipe yup yucca what was melon gonna do he was helping us who's milton what i don't remember any milton he has been with us the whole time great moment a jab at how little main characters and audiences alike pay attention to side characters i mean milton was in the epic rain shot he had just walked in front of harley missed it all melon was still with us i don't think so i think i would have noticed if a guy named milton's been with us new dumb friends will do that sometimes again his new dumb buddies tried to eat him then he fell out of a dumb building and now the dumb humans are shooting him justified [Music] jumping skills also it is almost exactly eight minutes later 132.55 to 140 47. gunslinger standoff only both duelers have machine like accuracy and i speed have told blood support your plan because he was ready for you i use smaller bullets what they go inside your bullet holes without even touching the side smaller bullets i don't know if ten-year-old me actually wanted to see starro fight b-level villains in a fake former u.s banana republic but 30-something meat is stoked hey didn't work on king shark but sure throw a little 556 to kaiju dumb militaries is why superheroes exist well that's properly disturbing oh the big guy's still trying to fit in even though those starlings definitely won't fit over that regal snoot is it screaming from its gills armholes like butts appendage schlitz definitely not calling them appendagelets he has no feet all his limbs are legs and his eye can just reorient itself i guess we've gotta freaking hide you up in this stoop to observations always a win that one line give that man more comedic roles leadership i knew sebastian says good in you for a reason sebastian jumping for joy is just about too cute for me to handle hey peacemaker's still alive wait a minute boy the month right there get on the satellite dale your kid get out of here sunshine's john murphy with this triumphant score building up as the suicide squad runs into battle yeah okay spoke too soon on the dope gun what a perfect way to adapt the comic character's power to teleport weapons to himself by having them build out of his high-tech suit you see who that is it's your mom so weird so funny so sad oh gosh grim but there's something really wonderful about one of the saddest characters dying instantly during what seems to be one of the happiest moments of his life finally seeing himself as more than a monster we should all be so lucky we're all gonna die i hope so seems rough but i'm glad they addressed this earlier we need to help these people impossible dear they're corpses below those stars [Music] see they both save each other but if we're being honest ratcatcher 2 is actually fulfilling a wish she had earlier you loved me i wish i could give that to you and as it might seem she's showing bloodsport love as a father would comforting him when he's at his most vulnerable helping him confront his miraphobia this city is nice holy killer delivery batman rats are the lowliest and most despised of all creatures my love if they have purpose so do we all taika drop in solid life lessons [Music] yo what no i mean yup i don't know anymore she found the purpose for the javelin and let's just give it up for the ladies saving the day shall we also brutal i was happy floating staring at the stars this film has a surprising amount of sorrowful moments but this one by far takes the cake for me it's truly devastating that this creature who was minding its own business just chilling in space was captured tortured for years and then killed when all it wanted to do was exist at least there are no parallels in real life harley's alive hugging i could be your friend milton not my name friendship did i mention sebastian is a wife win more friendship but i mean what a way to close out the movie such a positive note his own movie also he is a werewolf sure sure he can have a show too i don't think i love this movie for any different reasons than anyone else but i really love it for those reasons we get a complete introduction and set up for characters that won't live past the 12-minute mark and it works both as an expectation subversion and a continuation of a movie that arguably spent too much time on introductions as cool as they were so it's like this joke okay we did that let's just jump into whoopsie everyone's dead just stopped your trolling i like the 13 minutes before the title card of this movie more than i like some entire movies james gunn is quickly climbing my list of favorite directors and i love that this movie was successful and well reviewed so that studios will be willing to take more chances on giving a visionary like him the reigns they said he could pick whatever characters he wanted and could do whatever he wanted with them and that's what he did i think my biggest hesitation when i heard about the movie and its casting was that characters would be returning for this pseudo-soft reboot and after experiencing this movie it's one of my favorite things gun did this was not an easy task but no actors were replaced the closest we come to that is idris for will but james was smart enough to use a different villain top notch everything from a to z in this movie and the cast is pitch perfect this isn't idris's first time in a comedic role but it's definitely one of his best and it's not like he's given that many bits or one-liners just the way he plays off everyone else gun mentioned that john cena is probably the most gifted improvisational actor he's ever worked with and that shows so many great moments in this movie were ad-libbed it's not a toilet seat it's a beacon of freedom there's just no weak link in this movie from margot continuing to be harley right down to this under five and when a movie is this fun and just visually entertaining to watch you don't necessarily need some huge character arc or massive theme but that doesn't stop gun we see harley make tough choices in her post joker life polka dot man confronts his demons flag finally stands up to waller for what he believes in bloodsport made a new buddy and cleo got to protect her loved one from their burdens this time heck even king shark learns about not eating not even friends i mean he's doing fine no no no no no it's not i hope this is the beginning of a new chapter for dc i pray that they'll keep focusing on smaller character-driven stories with no ulterior massive universe motive and that in doing so one will happen organically there's no rush just keep throwing money at james gunn that's the moral of the story next week another r rated movie that i always forget is rated [Music] [Music] no [Music]
