He was great when he first appeared as a crime boss and the killer of Jason Todd's parents. Once they retconned out the Todd killing and turned him into another monster, he lost his charm.


They need to write that back into his character. Makes him much better if he's actually murdered someone close to the Batman family.

It fricking set an box office record for an August opening...the amount of sheer stupidity in this place never ceases to amaze me.

I'm sure you were part of the crowd on here bitching about Will Smith being cast before anyone saw a single clip of the movie.




Two pages back I praised Will Smith and Margot Robbie for their acting in spite of the shite script they had to work with.

It's a comic book movie with a massive ad campaign and August is a slow movie month. It goddamn better break records with the amount of money spent on it.

Are we still really defending mediocrity as an acceptable movie experience?

Whose decision was it to make him the most stereotypical black Guy of all time?

When I was younger, I always thought he was a black guy in BTAS. In the Arkham games, I had no clue what he was.

The good:

Will Smith and his character
Margot Robbie
Smith/Harley Back Story
Concept of Entrantress as a character not main Villain

The Bad:

Everything else
The Joker. I don't even know what to say. What is he in the Waste Management business? Jesus.
Enchantress as a villain
Dialogue is terrible.
The plot was awful
Needed a redevelopment/R rating but kids n shite

The dialogue just kept getting worse and worse. I felt like I was watching a PG rated movie during the second half of it.

I still enjoyed it for what it was. I just wish people would stop building these films up as so amazing and full of adult content.

And I don't know the comic but I hate it when everything works out in the end. The world is saved, the girl lives, blah blah blah. I like it when doing a great thing comes with great cost.

You mean to tell me Harley Quinn defeated a sorceress with sleight of hand. Totally believable DC.

The cgi was terrible. And to once again get a giant portal/beam being shot into the sky like 20 other superhero movies was soooooo lazy.

leto's take on the joker was great.

can't wait till he's fleshed out more in a movie where he's more of a central character

He was a mafia club owner. What kind of take was that?

Well, they tried that with Man of Steel and look how that turned out. The fanboys screamed bloody murder after that film.
