That's not true at all. The first one was crucified by critics.

So the first one is called Suicide Squad and this one is called The Suicide Squad?

Are they going to stream this one anywhere or is it theater only? Wouldn’t mind watching from home but not sure I’m going to trust the critics enough to head out the house for it

Even the fan reactions to the con-showings were, "It met my expectations."

Caleb Braley #TheSuicideSquad is a cosmic mix of the action of the 90s combined w/ exploitation films of the 70s. It's hyper-violence but it knows that it is. It's a little bit Tarantino. Definitely a little bit Michael Mann. It's kind of a cosmic gumbo. It almost moves to the beat of jazz.

Sounds like we're finally getting the Suicide Squad we deserved, Gunn was the perfect choice to direct and obviously the R rating was needed

Michael Mann and Tarantino? Do these dolts just pull names out of their butts?

Yeah buddy, when I think of all the movies Michael Mann made about goofy shark men and dopes in tights…

I guess there was The Keep.
