Not only is Friday one of the favorite days of the week, but Tuesdays are also one of the best days, with an hour off school and $5 movies.

One of the most talked about genre of movies is action/fantasy, a lot of movies like “Terminator” or “Batman” have a lot of history behind them.  Star Wars, most likely the most watched movie series, put so much thought into their story lines, people have started theories on what the next movies would contain. That’s why so many people feed into  the hype of these awesome and exhilarating movies.

But the movie “Suicide Squad” is different. With movie reviews both positive and negative, this was one of the best most exhilarating movies I have ever seen. It might have been more of an informative movie than a action movie, but it was the first movie of the series (hopefully.)

Some of the comments or reviews on Suicide Squad was the story or past of each character was poor, or it wasn’t as action-packed as they thought. I thought it was awesome and  gave enough information to know about the characters and what’s happening.

“Suicide Squad” included popular actors like Will Smith as Deadshot, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, and Jared Leto as the famous Joker. Smith, known for “Men in Black” is a very favorite actor for comedy/action movies.

Deadshot is well known for long range and head shots. Harley Quinn is a crazy girl that was beautiful with blonde hair and nerdy glasses, but turned into the savage Joker girlfriend. The Joker is known for his crazy savagery and  dispute with the well known super hero Batman.

Actor Adewale Akinnuoye-agbaje had his first appearance in a movie as the Killer Croc.

All characters represent different kinds of people with no super power abilities. Only two characters in the movie have any sort of superpowers: Enchantress and El Diablo.

El Diablo was definitely one of my favorites. He had a loving family, but he couldn’t control his powers and got mad at his wife. He burned the whole house down with his family inside. During the whole movie, he didn’t use his powers until the end.

Enchantress is the enemy of the story, she was found by a adventurer that opened up the wrong tube. Enchantress wasn’t a friendly the whole movie. When the government found her they had to go searching in her tomb, they found her heart. The government uses it as a weapon so she doesn’t turn against them. They keep it in a container away from her. Whenever she doesn’t do what they ask, they stab the heart. She turned against them and woke her brother Incubus, with his powerful strength, he used it to power Enchantress up, for the end of the world.

This movie was amazing with it’s absolutely Marvelous graphics and awesome characters. With a lot of thought and music behind the whole movie it turned out unbelievable no matter what others say. It should definitely be on your bucket list of movies to see.
