DavisвЂ™s Waller sets out to assemble a team of bad guys to protect us against the вЂњnext SupermanвЂќ вЂ“ but, in the process, prompts Cara DelevingneвЂ™s Enchantress to go to war against humankind. And while Ayer certainly invites us to luxuriate in her underdressed state, a bristling Robbie pushes back against titillation, imbuing her Harley Quinn with a gonzo nobility that rises above the material.ДЄs with Batman v Superman, Suicide Squad positions itself against basic storytelling convention. There was some controversy in the run-up over Harley QuinnвЂ™s costume, which fans regarded as overtly sexual. The only other properly fleshed out protagonist is Margot RobbieвЂ™s Harley Quinn, her performance hamstrung by the short-shorts Ayer has insisted Robbie pour herself into and by the actressвЂ™ wandering accent, which canвЂ™t decide whether it wishes to reside in Brooklyn or Brisbane. Will Smith is Deadshot, an assassin with a heart of mush (heвЂ™s doing it all for his little girl) whose superpower is shooting people in the face at point blank range. On the heels of $250 million Dawn of Justice, Suicide Squad certainly represents another considerable investment, with a $175m budget and a further $10m on reshoots to bring more вЂњhumourвЂќ. The вЂSuicide SquadвЂ™ of the title is a rag-tag of comic book villains wrangled by Viola DavisвЂ™s ruthless government functionary Amanda Waller into filling the void left by the death of the Man of Steel at the end of Dawn of Justice.Д®ven among comic aficionados, the characters were quite obscure - though the same could be said of MarvelвЂ™s Guardians of the Galaxy, so you can see why DC gave the green light to the project. But expectations of a Marvel-esque DC film have proved to be overstated with director David Ayer replicating Superman V BatmanвЂ™s cobbled together plot. Nietzschean portentousness was to be replaced by a lightness of touch and knockabout derring do. With Sucide Squad - essentially the Dirty Dozen with super villains - DC, we were promised, would change the narrative.
