The Suicide Squad (2021)

James Gunn is a really fun writer/director. He is able to make immature jokes while telling a compelling, layered story. Every character was played to perfection. The proper amount of stakes. Humor and drama. It is just a fun ride from beginning to end. Flula should have been in the movie more. A romance between him and Harley would be so cute. I love this movie. It would have made bank at the box office if it didn’t release the same day on HBO Max. This is a must-watch R-rated party.
