Another half month and then you can go to The Suicide Squad from director James Gunn. The first press screening for the film took place this week and we immediately received the first reactions. And the impression is quite positive.
When one actor John Cena asked about the film, he was clear: “you’re not ready”. And that doesn’t even seem like such a bad guess when we look at the first reactions. At least the hype is getting big for the DC movie!
The first reactions
Critics were given the opportunity after the press screening at Warner Bros. already commenting on the film online. Although the Twitter reactions are often more positive than the final reviews, these reactions are very positive. It should almost be indicative of how the film likes.
Below is a sampling of the reactions on social media:
#TheSuicideSquad is absolutely insane. Violent as hell, raunchy, unforgiving.
James Gunn is fully unleashed. It’s sometimes overwhelming. It has moments of heart, humor, action, emotion… all of it. Relentless.
There’s nothing like it. Damn! pic.twitter.com/GTTMR3EOJD

Idris Elba’s Bloodsport & David Dastmalchian’s Polka-Dot Man are major stand-outs for me (Bloodsport has the coolest weapons, btw). I also thought this was the best we’ve seen of Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn. Her journey in this film is actually quite lovely… and quite bloody! pic.twitter.com/UaeWzU4P5X

#TheSuicideSquad is fantastic! A no holds barred, superhero/comics bonanza. Unpredictable in story, unique in style & full of risks. It’s also violent & hilarious. Action set pieces are insane. Idris Elba, Margot Robbie & rest of cast are awesome. @JamesGunn has done it again. pic.twitter.com/7aLiMLPPf5

#TheSuicideSquad is a gory & explosive time that perfectly encaptures the chaos & violence of the source material. The cast is excellent together and there’s never a dull moment. Unexpected & fun, one of DC’s best. pic.twitter.com/4LXhNjBo7m

The Suicide Squad welcomes you to Bell Reve, the prison with the highest death rate in the United States. There, the US’s worst criminals are held captive and they join Task Force X to solve dangerous missions. If they successfully complete their mission, they will be deducted from their punishment.
So when they’re tasked with taking down a Nazi lab on a fictional island, they seize the opportunity and get to work.
