Review: James Gunn's TheSuicideSquad shifts superhero movies into a hilarious, gory and exceedingly bonkers new direction.
), a jerky and extremely grating patriotic type who kills in the name of liberty and is a hyper-muscular gem of a man you love to hate.
Those who adore Rocket Raccoon and Groot from Gunn’s “Guardians” will get a kick out of Ratcatcher 2 , a nap-happy young woman who can control rats, and Polka-Dot Man , who has a death wish as well as an inter-dimensional virus that spawns destructive polka dots. Sylvester Stallone also voices the man-eating, scene-stealing King Shark and it’s pretty much as awesome as it sounds.
Gunn juggles a massive cast including Pete Davidson , Peter Capaldi , Michael Rooker and Nathan Fillion , though impressively finds moments for each of them to shine.
So it seems lightning has struck again, this time in the DC universe where the most successful movies thus far have played it safe. That’s never been Gunn’s game, thankfully, and certainly isn’t here. Anyway, who needs Batman around when you’ve got Starro the Conqueror?
