    • Trivia
      As for how director James Gunn got Sylvester Stallone to voice the role of Nanaue/King Shark, it didn't take a whole lot of convincing. Gunn said to him, "I wrote this role for you in The Suicide Squad. It won't take too much of your time." Stallone replied, "Oh yeah?" To which Gunn said, "Yeah. It's a big, kinda chubby, human-eating shark." To which Stallone said, "Anything for you, brother."

    • Quotes

      Young Cleo: Why rats, Papa?

      Ratcatcher: Rats are the lowliest and most despised of all creatures, my love. But if they have purpose, so do we all.

    • Crazy credits
      SPOILER: There is a scene at the end of the closing credits: Waller's aides Economos and Harcourt visit Peacemaker in hospital. This leads into Peacemaker (2022).

    7/10
    vulgar, brutally and stupid...I like it
    • (+) its pretty hilarious
    • (+) the characters are so stupily adorable, almost all of them!


    • (+) this results if you put great characters and actors (just like the first movie)
    together and just completely ignore every aspect of the the 2016 film and simply do a modern funny Comic movie which doesnt takes itself so serious
    • (+) King Shark


    • (-) u dont really get an emtional connection to most of them, because you already know what happens to many of those guys
    • (-) a lot of people will hate me for this...but I think Harley Quinn is not necessary for this movie, I love Margot Robbie. But even after the first film I didnt really understand the whole hype. I would rather had more screentime for polka-dot-man and ratcatcher. DC just completely sucks the juice out of Margot Robbies way of Harley Quinn...they shouldnt!


    DC is so much more than that. And I think with this movie they came a lot closer to the MCU. Overall is TSS 2 wayyy better than the first one, a 180 degree change. James Gunn is just a genius.

    PLS GIVE ME A KING SHARK OR RATCATCHER 2 MOVIE ASAP!!!

    FAQ7

    • Is this a sequel mission to Suicide Squad (2016) or a remake?
    • Did Blackguard really manage on his own while in prison to contact the Corto Maltesian military about the mission on their soil, or did Waller allow him to make contact to as to make the distraction for the other team more effective?
    • How is Harley Quinn part of The Suicide Squad ? After what happened in Birds of Prey. The events of that movie wasn't even mentioned.
