Following the lumbering monster – well, the two lumbering monsters – of Batman v Superman, fans of the DC comic stable were left feeling pretty underwhelmed by the cinematic universe’s new, ponderous direction.
More than that, reviews for the flick broke Ben Affleck’s beefy heart right in two.
Welp, if you too are thinking this new, gritty realm could use a little bit of levity and, well, excitement, the following news might please you greatly:
Viewers at a super-spesh early screening of Suicide Squad – a film that already looks utterly manic compared to BvS – have reported on social media the flick is an absolute cracker.
Just got out of a test screening for #SuicideSquad. THIS is the movie that shouldve launched the #DCEU. Perfection film making, breathtaking

#SuicideSquad was the best movie I’ve seen. Just insane. I was skeptical of Cara Delevingne acting but she was pretty good.

So last night, I watched an early screening of #SuicideSquad. 2 words, HARLEY QUINN. She’s crazy good.
