The Suicide Squad - What Happens to a Starfish in Space?

Published: Sept. 7, 2021, 10 a.m.

After a run of superhero movies with mixed reviews and mixed-er (?) success, the DC Extended Universe takes a gamble with The Suicide Squad, a soft reboot of their previous move in the series, Suicide Squad. It's all very confusing, but you don't have to watch the first movie (and we recommend you don't) to enjoy this one. Don and Chuck have different opinions on the movie, but they both have fun dissecting its ridiculously violent comic book antics, over-the-top characters and raucous, infantile humor. Unexpectedly, this silly action film helps them discuss such important topics as separating the government from its country, the way governments treat their military, and the lasting effects of trauma.
