Also since Suicide Squad was mentioned I've now been thinking about how much this has in common with Dark Phoenix:
-A team of misfits with one of their members killed off early
-Script and editing which screams writen by committee and gone through multiple changes and re-shoots.
-Exessive use of flashbacks
-One redeeming acting performance (Fassbender and Robbie)
-A vaguely defined villain with even vaguelier defined henchmen
-A finale with poorly lit mediocre CGI
It's tough to decide which is worse. I think I gave both a 2/10. I'm going to say Dark Phoenix is the better one because at least being part of a continuing series they didn't need to do all the character introductions. That SS "This is Katana..." introduction might be the worst bit of dialog in movie history.

There were parts of suicide squad that I did like, it was just such an incomplete movie and the Joker really ruined the movie.
But adding on to the dialogue part yeah it was awful, but I still loved Harley's reply to it.
Love your perfume. What is that? The stench of death?
