The Suicide Squad is a 2021 ensemble superhero Science Fiction war Black Comedy film written and directed by James Gunn, based on the DC Comics title of the same name. It is the tenth installment of the DC Extended Universe, serving as a standalone sequel and Soft Reboot to 2016's Suicide Squad.Set after the events of the first film and Birds of Prey, the plot follows a new iteration of Task Force X / "The Suicide Squad", a collection of Boxed Crook Supervillains offered a simple deal by high-ranking government official Amanda Waller (Viola Davis): have a bomb temporarily placed in the base of their skull to assure they don't try to escape and take on an increasingly deadly series of Suicide Missions in return for having their prison sentence reduced after each success. Their mission today? Survive being dropped onto Corto Maltese, a remote island filled with criminals and soldiers all guarding a massive secret that could spell doom for the entire world. Also, don't get too attached, because not everyone's gonna make it.Reprising their roles are Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney) and Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman). They are joined by newcomers Polka-Dot Man (David Dastmalchian), Ratcatcher II (Daniela Melchior) and her lead rat Sebastian (rat actors Jaws and Crisp Ratt / voice actor Dee Bradley Baker), King Shark (body actor Steve Agee / voice actor Sylvester Stallone), Bloodsport (Idris Elba), Peacemaker (John Cena), Savant (Michael Rooker), T.D.K./The Detachable Kid (Nathan Fillion), Mongal (Mayling Ng), Blackguard (Pete Davidson), Javelin (Flula Borg), and Weasel (Sean Gunn). Storm Reid, Taika Waititi, Joaquín Cosío, Alice Braga, Peter Capaldi, Juan Diego Botto, Jennifer Holland, Tinashe Kajese, Pom Klementieff and Julio Ruiz also appear in other roles.The film was released on August 5, 2021. Like its predecessor Wonder Woman 1984, it (along with the rest of Warner Bros.'s slate for 2021) received a same-day release on HBO Max and theatrically where available.Ahead of release, in September 2020, it was announced that Cena's Peacemaker would be starring in a spin-off series on HBO Max, also written and directed by Gunn. Gunn later confirmed that he was developing another spin-off for HBO Max near the end of the first season of Peacemaker.Previews: Cast Roll Call. DC FanDome Sneak Peek. Red Band Trailer. Official Trailer #2. Official Trailer #3.

Canon Foreigner: Ratcatcher II was created exclusively for the film, as Ratcatcher I never had a daughter in the comics. Likewise, Bloodsport's daughter Tyla does not exist in the comics, and was seemingly created as an Expy of Deadshot's daughter Zoe from back when Elba was to play Deadshot instead.

Anyone Can Die
 The Suicide Squad / int_1237828f
comment
Anyone Can Die: It comes with the premise, but delivers well beyond expectation — by the climax, the death count of Squad members is, in order: Blackguard, Mongal, Captain Boomerang, T.D.K., Javelin, Savant, Rick Flag and Polka-Dot Man. The Thinker and Starro the Conqueror also die, and President Luna is fatally shot shockingly early on by Harley. Flag and Boomerang are particularly noticeable, both being major characters of the Suicide Squad franchise and the latter usually being depicted as one of the core three members of the Squad in most media, alongside Deadshot and Harley Quinn.

Darker and Edgier: Zig-zagged. While this movie embraces its comic book roots far more than its predecessor, the stakes and dark themes featured here are actually more in line with the source material with its ramped up gore, the higher emphasis on covert military operations and the true cost of war, and firmly sticking to its Anyone Can Die precedent. By the time the credits roll, only Bloodsport, Harley, Ratcatcher, and King Shark are still standing, which starkly contrasts to the previous Squad movie seeing a large majority of its cast surviving to the end.

Artistic License – Biology: Rats only squeak when there's danger coming, they're in danger, or when they're being injured. Sebastian's squeaks were voiced by Dee Bradley Baker however, so he got to be a bit more expressive than most other rats. Severed heads are not able to move eyes or make expressions, unlike the one that is shown up close between King Shark's teeth after he beheads a soldier. At one point, Bloodsport, a Badass Normal, lands on his feet after falling quite a distance and is perfectly fine. Bones are strong, but not that strong.

Hypocritical Heartwarming: Bloodsport's parental skills are lacking at best — his only on-screen interaction with his daughter is a screaming match where they both yell at each other to fuck off. When Waller uses her as a bargaining chip to coerce Bloodsport into joining Task Force X by threatening to send her to Belle Reve he's so enraged that he holds the sharp edge of a pen to Waller's throat.

Gone Horribly Right: Amanda Waller recruited Bloodsport thinking he had the potential to be a great leader. She was right. Too bad for her that meant that he'd turn his back on the mission she sent him and leading the Squad to try and save millions of innocent lives to take down Starro, eventually leading him to blackmail her for his and the Squad's freedom.

Never Trust a Trailer: A shot in the final trailer shows Ratcatcher II summoning her rats while covering Bloodsport's body with tears in her eyes, making it look like he's been killed and she's avenging him. In the actual film, Bloodsport is merely cowering due to his musophobia as Ratcatcher II summons the rats to attack Starro, crying Tears of Joy as her late father's work finally pays off.

Floorboard Failure: After the top part of the Jotunheim tower crumble, Bloodsport manages to break his fall with his Grappling-Hook Pistol and then lands on his feet a few meters down, unharmed. Except the weakened floor give way around him, sending him down on the level below where another piece of floor cracks underneath and send him down another level, and again, and again, until he reaches the bottom of the tower.

 The Suicide Squad / int_1b465242

Conditioned to Accept Horror: Waller's support team are rather blasé about the lives of the various Task Force X members that get sent into the field. At the beginning of the movie, we see them betting money amongst themselves about which members will die, and in the opening credits we see the winners of the bets laughing it up and in some cases displaying contempt for the members of Team 1 who died. However, even they have their limits: John Enconomos is clearly disturbed by Waller's methods and willingness to blackmail and cajole the various squad members into obedience, such as threatening to have Bloodsport's daughter thrown in jail on a trumped up charge and where she will likely die — if Bloodsport doesn't accept the current mission. And when Waller plans to execute the surviving Team 2 members for defying her order to leave Starro to its rampage, one of the support team knocks her out with her own golf club, at which point everyone else moves to support the team in stopping Starro.

Failed a Spot Check
 The Suicide Squad / int_21e5b9c7
comment
Failed a Spot Check: Despite carefully analyzing each Squad member's unique physical strengths and weaknesses, Waller and her aides make a few unfortunate oversights. The Squad's infiltration route into Corto Maltese is to be dropped into the sea so they can swim to shore. It never occurs to those organizing the mission that some of the Squad members may not even be able to swim. Turns out Weasel is not, and he (apparently) drowns. Waller never considers the fact that any of the recruits may have musophobia, a fear of rodents, before teaming them up with Ratcatcher II. It's revealed early on in the mission that Bloodsport has a particularly strong phobia of rats due to a bad childhood experience with them, and he's visibly terrified when Ratcatcher summons a swarm of them at the campsite. Unrelated to Waller's choices, the second Squad doesn't notice that the people they're currently slaughtering under the assumption that they're the enemy aren't dressed as Corto Maltese soldiers and appear to be living in the forest. Sure enough, they're actually freedom fighters who saved Flagg. On the other end, Flagg and Soria don't hear the carnage going on outside.

The scene where Team B attacks an enemy camp to save Rick. People are shot, immolated, killed with darts, and even chopped up by Peacemaker while bedridden. At one point, Bloodsport and Peacemaker even compete to see who can dish out the coolest kills. But it's the end of the scene that really delves into Black Comedy, when it's revealed that the Squad just slaughtered an entire camp full of innocent freedom fighters.

Uriah Gambit
 The Suicide Squad / int_229c2ec8
comment
Uriah Gambit: It's heavily implied that Waller intended everyone on the first team to die in the firefight on the beach, and the team is therefore filled with people she either considers completely useless to her or actively wants dead. It's likely that Harley and Boomerang in particular are in the latter category, considering how much of a pain in her ass they were in the first movie. What's especially notable, however, is that she puts Rick Flag on the team she intends to die, and when he survives partially by being rescued by freedom fighters she then orders Bloodsport's squad to attack their camp in a "rescue" mission, quite possibly in the hope of getting Flag killed in the crossfire. We find out at least part of why she wanted Flagg dead much later — the true purpose of the mission is to cover up decades of human experimentation by the US Government, and Flag is principled enough to start making plans to reveal it to the press the moment he finds out, making him a major threat to Waller's plans.

Chekhov's Gun
 The Suicide Squad / int_22cf536c
comment
Chekhov's Gun: An almost literal example with the gun Harley kills Luna with. During the preceding Destructo-Nookie, the gun, which appears to be a heavily ornate decorative piece, can be seen lying around the wreckage. Harley even expresses surprise that it was actually loaded. In his dying moments, Javelin bequeaths his weapon to Harley, but dies before he can tell her what to use it for, only letting out a long drawn-out "ssss" sound. It becomes a Running Gag for Harley to ask what she's supposed to use it for (not that it prevents her from using very effectively in combat). She eventually pierces Starro's giant eye with it, allowing Starro to be defeated. The golf club Waller is using to practice her putting while preparing for a round of golf is used by one of her subordinates to knock her out in the movie's climax. King Shark's immunity to bullets is demonstrated early on when Bloodsport's souped-up weaponry proves to be unable to do more than push him backwards. This comes into play during the climax, where he takes a nasty fall off of Jotenheim and is subsequently surrounded and fired on by a squad of commandos. As before, he proves to be Not Quite Dead and rises to his feet to chow down on an unlucky soldier. If you look closely as he's being shot at, one can see that the bullets are merely bouncing off of him rather than penetrating.

Ironic Echo: When introduced, Peacemaker begins immediately taunting Bloodsport, telling him that he's an even better shot than Bloodsport, that he can hit targets even more perfectly than Bloodsport, using "Smaller bullets, which go through your holes without touching the sides". During the Climax, when Bloodsport sees Peacemaker about to kill Ratcatcher II, they shoot at each other, with Bloodsport's smaller bullet shattering Peacemaker's in mid-air and travelling on to hit him in the neck. Before he passes out, he asks Bloodsport how, and he replies "Smaller bullets".

Mythology Gag

comment
Mythology Gag: After Captain Boomerang dies there's a shot of his arm holding up a boomerang, with it appearing to be glowing white from reflected light. In the comics, Boomerang was resurrected as a Black Lantern who then used spectral white boomerang constructs. After being found by the rebels, Rick Flag changes from his military garb into a yellow t-shirt, which his counterpart in the comics wore during the original run of Suicide Squad comics. Harley's new look (seen in both the Roll Call and the Sneak Peek) is similar to the way she appears in Sam Humphries' run as well as Batman: Arkham City and Injustice 2. Gunn himself confirmed the Injustice connection on Twitter. Bloodsport is in prison for shooting Superman with a Kryptonite bullet. This is taken directly from Bloodsport's first appearance in John Byrne's Post-Crisis Superman run back in 1987. Waller mentions Flag and DuBois being on the Special Forces team that took down Avral Kaddam, a Deathstroke villain, also mentioning Qurac. Rick Flag died in Jotunheim in the Suicide Squad comics. There it was an explosion, while in the film it's in a fight with Peacemaker. Waller mentions a Senator Cray. This character actually appeared in the Suicide Squad comics, and his son Adam served in the Squad as the third Atom. Calendar Man makes a brief appearance to antagonize Polka-Dot Man; David Dastmalchian also voiced Calendar Man in Batman: The Long Halloween. In the opening scene, Savant is shown killing a canary with implied Tranquil Fury. He was created as an antagonist of the Birds of Prey, a team that Black Canary is a member of. During Rick Flag's death scene, he utters the line "'Peacemaker'... What a joke." It's not hard to see this as an allusion to Watchmen, in which the Comedian was explicitly a Captain Ersatz to Peacemaker. And on that note during the scene where the Squad goes to rescue Harley, the bloodstain on Bloodsport's shirt looks suspiciously similar to the iconic bloodstain on the Comedian's button. Corto Maltese originated as a location in The Dark Knight Returns, where, like The Suicide Squad, it was the site of conflict due to a rebellion against the U.S.-backed government. However, unlike Returns, here the government actually was toppled, leading to a counter-insurgency that the Squad teams up with. The island previously had been referenced in several other DC adaptations, such as Batman, where Vicki Vale had photographed the aftermath of a massacre prior to the film. King Shark forms a close friendship with Ratcatcher II that's reminiscent of his unlikely bond with Killer Frost in Batman: Assault on Arkham, albeit minus any Ship Tease.

 The Suicide Squad / int_2bdae2ae

Awesome, but Impractical: Peacemaker's arsenal includes custom-made bullets that are larger than average ammo and explode into fragments on impact. Though an impressive weapon in concept, the explosive function proves to be a major disadvantage when Peacemaker and Bloodsport fire at each other, as Bloodsport's smaller, sturdier bullet tears straight through Peacemaker's and hits the latter in the throat, while Bloodsport is completely unscathed.

Kick the Dog: Savant is introduced killing a small bird out of sheer malice, establishing him as a creep. It might have something to do with Black Canary being the one to send him to jail. The first thing Suarez does once Luna is killed by Harley, leaving him in charge? Burn down the former's birds. Alive. Waller's support team is shown repeatedly as being uncomfortable with the lengths that Waller will go to for her missions. This sets up them rebelling on her when she tries to detonate Bloodsport's bomb and then assisting the Squad against Starro.

Noodle Incident: Unlike the detailed flashbacks in the previous Suicide Squad film, the Squad members' reasons for being in Belle Reeve are only vaguely mentioned in passing in this film. Some characters have more specific details mentioned, such as Weasel killing 27 children, Bloodsport shooting Superman, and Ratcatcher II robbing a bank, but the wider contexts behind these events are not elaborated on. When Boomerang expresses his surprise to see Harley back in prison and on the Squad, she pouts and mentions getting "road rage... in a bank". It looks a lot like bank robbery, but knowing Harley the actual circumstances could be significantly depraved.

Mundane Solution: Polka-Dot Man needs a special collar to keep the constantly growing polka dots under control, but when out in the field he can simply expel them (if they weren't used up in combat), in a simple process akin to taking a dump. Starro spores can be prevented from bonding to a person's face just by covering the face; Ratcatcher II and Polka-Dot Man use their existing masks, Bloodsport and Harley hold up their arms, and King Shark's face is just too big for a spore to attach itself to him.

Superhero Speciation: Waller claims that each member of the Squad is chosen for their unique abilities, yet Bloodsport complains that he and Peacemaker have the same skills, to the point where Waller even uses the exact same phrase to describe them ("in his hands, anything can be a deadly weapon"). Peacemaker argues that his Improbable Aiming Skills are better, but this is later proven wrong when they go up against each other. The team's failure in this regard is exaggerated even further when Rick Flag joins up, giving them three members who have the same primary skill. To the point that when captured together they all escape simultaneously using the same technique.

Bittersweet Ending: Starro is killed and Corto Maltese is saved by the Suicide Squad, and the guerillas succeed in overthrowing the government and installing a democracy. However, most of the Squad is killed in the process, Rick Flag and Polka-Dot Man included. Bloodsport is forced to use the hard drive proving the U.S. government's complicity in the Jotunheim experiments as blackmail against Waller to guarantee she won't kill any of the survivors in retaliation for defying her orders and stopping Starro, saving their lives at the cost of the truth being kept under wraps. Also, a lot of innocent Corto Maltesians died.

Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: After learning the sheer enormity of the horrors committed during the course of Project Starfish, as well as the U.S. government's involvement in it, Rick Flag decides to defy Amanda Waller and release all of the evidence to the media. Unfortunately, this gets him killed by Peacemaker. When Starro rampages on Corto Maltese, Waller insists that the Squad's mission to destroy evidence of America's involvement is complete, and they must abort. Starting with Bloodsport, the remaining members begin charging towards Starro to save the city. This also extends to the aides in Waller's office, one of whom knocks Waller unconscious with a golf club to prevent her from activating the Squad's neck explosives.

Killed to Uphold the Masquerade
 The Suicide Squad / int_44880a8c
comment
Peacemaker is a brutal murderer, but is disgusted by the fact that Bloodsport kills people for money rather than out of a sense of duty. He's also clearly shaken by having to kill Flag, whom he considers an American hero, to to keep America's involvement in Project Starfish a secret. When he tries to execute Ratcatcher II for the same reason, he's on the verge of tears and genuinely apologizes for what he's about to do to her. And despite being willing to cover up the Project Starfish experiments for the U.S. government's sake, he still is repulsed by the experiments themselves and calls the Thinker out for making himself out as the victim for losing his research.

The Guards Must Be Crazy
 The Suicide Squad / int_4508b16b
comment
The Guards Must Be Crazy: Even though they're currently on high alert, the guards let The Thinker back to Jotunheim without bothering to check his van, even though he's currently being held hostage by the Squad inside it and are forcing him to get them inside. This is explained in a deleted scene where the guards are planning to search the van even though Thinker knows the squad leader by name and he's known to pop in at odd hours, but thanks to him suggesting that the cargo he's carrying is "not exactly from this world", which Polka-Dot Man takes as a cue to use some of his dots to burn away a part of the van door to make it seem like the "cargo" is leaking, the guards get second thoughts about searching it and allow Thinker to go on his merry way.

Shirtless Scene: Peacemaker spends a scene in just his tighty whitey underwear — this is apparently all he wears whilst sleeping.

President Luna is only wearing speedos when he first meets Harley. One of the Corto Maltese citizens attacked by a Starro spore is shirtless.

You Dirty Rat!: Played with. Bloodsport is disgusted at Ratcatcher II's ability to summon and control rats, while Ratcatcher herself sees nothing wrong with it (she even has an adorable rat sidekick). While she is later able to use said power to beat Starro, it's likely that the fight taking place in the sort of place to have a big rat problem she could take advantage of helped a lot.

Would Hurt a Child
 The Suicide Squad / int_479d4e5a
comment
Would Hurt a Child: Flag claims that Weasel has killed 27 children. At the beginning of the film, Bloodsport's daughter Tyla says she was arrested for stealing a smartwatch and has an upcoming juvie hearing. Waller strongarms him into joining the mission by telling him she'll have Tyla tried as an adult and thrown into Bell Reve, which she says has the highest mortality rate in the Federal prison system, if he doesn't comply. Peacemaker openly states that he's willing to kill children in the name of peace. He's certainly willing to cover their deaths up. Dr. Gaius Grieves's horrific Project Starfish experiments are stated to have included many children among their victims. General Silvio Luna tells Harley, who has just become his fiancée, that he's going to have his political enemies and their families used as Starfish test subjects, children included. On hearing this, Harley kills him without hesitation, saying that hurting children is a blatant red flag for her. During the mission briefing, the previous dictator of Corto Maltese is shown in a family portrait with his wife and three young children. Then when Waller explains that the government was overthrown by a coup, she shows a press photo of the president and his family, all with bags over their heads, all hung in a row, including the youngest children.

Death by Adaptation: In DC comics featuring Starro, Starro's victims are usually fine after its tiny clones are removed from the victims' faces. Here the victims are dead the moment Starro's clones latch on to their faces, with the parasites permanently in control of the bodies. Any attempt at trying to remove it will result in Facial Horror.

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: When the team finally gets to Jotunheim, it's raining heavily and Bloodsport points out that it "makes excellent cover". As if to prove his point, we immediately see all of them do a Team Power Walk through the rain. When Amanda Waller's team first meets with Robert DuBois, one of them asks "Who the fuck is Bloodsport?" Considering what a minor villain he is in the comics, the audience probably has the same question.

Full-Circle Revolution: The only explicitly named crime of the previous ruling dictatorship was using political dissidents as guinea pigs for Project Starfish. The new revolutionary junta quickly decides to do the same thing once they know about it. However the revolution that follows by La Résistance is much more benevolent, though it should be noted that by the time they've secured their hold on the government, Starro is dead, making feeding people to him impossible.

Contrasting Sequel Main Character
 The Suicide Squad / int_517d2eb8
comment
Contrasting Sequel Main Character: Bloodsport is essentially this to Deadshot. Both men are elite level assassins and Notorious Parents with hidden hearts of gold who end up being dragged into Waller's suicide mission for the sake of their children. But where as Deadshot is the doting father of a cheerful young girl who loves him despite of his career as a hired gun, Bloodsport is a terrible father to a juvenile delinquent who are both constantly at each other's throats. Whereas Deadshot is motivated into joining the Squad by his need to be back in his daughter's life, Bloodsport personally wants nothing to do with his kid but is coerced into joining the team's roster or else his daughter will intentionally be sent to Belle Reve by Waller to die. Where Deadshot was consistently at odds with Rick Flag during their mission in Midway City and had to overcome their grievances with one another to get the job done, Bloodsport and Flag are old war buddies who are far more cordial to one another during their operation in Corto Maltese. And where Deadshot's skillset is defined by his Improbable Aiming Skills, Bloodsport's skillset showcases a bigger emphasis on him being both a Walking Armory and a Multi-Melee Master who's capable of mowing down entire armies with his superior firepower. And more strikingly, Where Deadshot completed his mission but is still entrapped as Waller's asset, Bloodsport succeeded in obtaining freedom for both himself and the surviving members of his squad via blackmailing Waller with the data collected from Jotunheim. Even their superhero adversaries are contrasting, with Deadshot being a Batman villain who was eventually appended by the Dark Knight during a night out with his daughter while Bloodsport is a Superman villain who put the Man of Steel in the ICU before he was arrested.

Guns Akimbo: Twice in quick succession during Harley's escape from the Corto Maltese prison. Notable for being about as realistic as the trope can be. The first instance, Harley grabs two handguns and takes rapid but aimed single shots while spinning, managing to avert A-Team Firing and Bottomless Magazines at the same time. The second time, she grabs two M16s and cuts loose on full auto. Also managed to avert both common pitfalls of the trope; she dumps both magazines in 2-3 seconds and her targets are all clustered in a hallway, negating the need for precision.

Comic-Book Movies Don't Use Codenames: Played with for most characters, who are identified by their codenames only intermittently and their real names the rest of the time. Played straight with King Shark, who is identified as such only twice, once by Amanda Waller and once mockingly, by Peacemaker, and is addressed as Nanaue otherwise, and Starro the Conqueror, who is called that only twice by Dr. Grieves and Ratcatcher II.

Casting Gag: Sean Gunn has been cast in a wacky superhero movie directed by his brother James, where he plays a performance-captured humanoid pest and part of a group of near-psychotic criminals who are trying to redeem themselves. Did someone say Guardians of the Galaxy? For that matter, did someone say The Specials? Joaquín Cosío as a brutal and ruthless Latin American general with ambitions of becoming dictator of a South American country. Did someone say Quantum of Solace? Akio Ōtsuka, Peacemaker's Japanese dub actor, had previously voiced some roles related in one way or another with him, mainly, Anavel Gato, an ultra-patriotic soldier fanatically loyal to his country, and Solid Snake, an excentric American Super-Soldier who, at least at first, is also willing to do anything for saving his country.

 The Suicide Squad / int_70489c17
comment
Superman Stays Out of Gotham: When Starro rampages through the city during the finale, the possibility of the Justice League or any other superheroes showing up to stop it is never once raised. Though this can be justified by the fact that the whole mission is clandestine and Starro was contained at a secret facility that is unknown to the League and the public. In addition, Corto Maltese isn't close to any of the League's normal stomping grounds, and the whole incident comes up and is resolved in maybe an hour or two, so even if they did try to save the day, the issue was handled before they got there.

Covers Always Lie: One of the main posters◊ shows all the characters, from both Squad A and B, charging into battle together amidst a shower of rain and falling Starros. Most of the members of Squad A are killed before Squad B are even introduced, long before the climactic battle with Starro takes place. This poster also indicates that The Thinker is a member of the Squad and fights alongside them. He's actually a target that the Squad has to capture.

Real Life Writes the Plot: John Ostrander, who didn't create the team but is probably the writer most synonymous with it, gets a decent little nugget of screentime — with lines! It didn't go without notice that this is in the wake of Winter Soldier creator Ed Brukaker criticising Disney for not paying the original writers of the comic stories they use, even mentioning that he's received far more money for his cameo in Captain America: The Winter Soldier than he got for writing its premise.

Peacemaker turns out to be The Mole to make sure the evidence the Starro and Jotunheim experiments has American origins remains a secret, he kills Flag when he sought to retrieve a hard drive and nearly kills Ratcatcher II before Bloodsport stops him.

Grappling-Hook Pistol: Bloodsport's bracers include an extensible cable apparatus that he uses to help climbing, notably when trying to infiltrate the palace. He also uses it when Jotunheim is crumbling around the Squad to break his fall, although he still gets slammed into a wall, and the steel tip embedded in concrete can't support his weight for long.

Sequel Non-Entity
 The Suicide Squad / int_85b20dee

Sequel Non-Entity: About half the characters from the first movie don't return for this one, most notably Will Smith as Deadshot, Karen Fukuhara as Katana, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Killer Croc, Cara Delevingne as June Moone and Jared Leto as the Joker. They aren't even mentioned (though the Joker is at least alluded to when Harley talks about her sordid romantic history), which is especially odd since Deadshot has most of the same skills that Waller so badly needed from Bloodsport. Griggs, the abusive security officer who tormented the Squad at Belle Reve in the first film, also doesn't show up during any of the scenes set in the prison. Flag's relationship to June was integral to the first film's plot so seeing him return as if she never existed is somewhat noticable.

What Happened to the Mouse?: Due to being a Soft Reboot, some notable characters/arcs from the first film and Birds of Prey are quietly dropped. Despite Rick Flag returning, no reference is made to his relationship with Dr. June Moone, or why he's no longer working with his personal bodyguard Katana. It's not clear what happened to Cassandra Cain when Harley was recaptured.

Data Drive MacGuffin: Upon entering the Lab to destroy any traces of Project Starfish, the Thinker reveals they were merely sent to cover up America's part in it. Flag becomes disturbed at being used like a pawn, before ripping out the hard drive and proposing they expose it to the public. Peacemaker kills him for this, before eventually being killed himself, allowing the Suicide Squad to use the hard drive as blackmail to be let free from prison.

Bait-and-Switch: We're introduced to the first Squad only to find they're actually expendable Red Shirts for the real protagonists. When Javelin dies, Harley slowly reaches her hand towards his face, apparently to tenderly stroke it. Instead, she starts frantically trying to slap him awake, because he died mid-sentence and didn't finish his attempt at an inspiring speech. Because All Girls Want Bad Boys it looks like Harley will hook up with President Luna, only changing back to the right side at the last moment. Nope—she's learnt from the Joker and just shoots him right off.

Sidetracked by the Analogy: After Bloodsport retorts at him to eat a big bag of dicks, Peacemaker makes a truly out-there claim that if "this entire beach" was covered in dicks and he was forced to eat every single one "for liberty", he'd gladly do it. Ratcatcher II, and Peacemaker himself, soon get hung up on the repulsive hypothetical of a severed-penis beach and why it would ever exist.

Denser and Wackier: The previous Suicide Squad attempted to be gritty and grounded, closer to the franchise's established tone at the time. In comparison, The Suicide Squad aims for a more intentionally cartoony tone, with a lineup comprised of ridiculous characters in colorful outfits, and the Black Humor is significantly dialed up. Even the threat the Squad has to face, Starro, is a much more outlandish adversary than the previous film's more standard and straightforward villain. Even Amanda Waller gets her own moment of silliness when she's shown trying (and failing) to play office golf.

Deconstruction
 The Suicide Squad / int_8ae880f7
comment
Deconstruction: A frequent criticism of the first movie was that the core premise strained believability, as most of the characters (e.g. Harley, Captain Boomerang, Slipknot and Katana) lacked abilities that would actually be useful in the sorts of Superman-level situations the team was supposedly formed to deal with. We see this on full display in the opening battle, where the initial strike team, which mostly consists of Badass Normals (with a few exceptions like Mongal and TDK, the latter of whom is quickly established as a Joke Character) is quickly massacred when faced with superior numbers. It later turns out that this team was intentionally chosen to serve as a distraction for Bloodsport's group, who were the ones Waller trusted to actually get the job done.

Anachronic Order: Multiple times in the film, characters appear and events suddenly occur without explanation in the main narrative. These scenes are then followed with detailed flashbacks explaining the context behind these events. Immediately after Flag's first Squad are ambushed and mostly massacred, Bloodsport's group are introduced out of nowhere as they arrive on the other side of the island. The film then cuts to three days earlier, showing how Bloodsport's team was assembled, ultimately culminating in their arrival at Corto Maltese. When Peacemaker tries to stop Flag from exposing Project Starfish, the entire lab suddenly begins collapsing on top of them, and the scene ends just as Peacemaker is about to execute Ratcatcher II. The film then cuts to eight minutes earlier, showing how the other Squad members accidentally set off the bombs too early, causing Jotunheim to collapse and allowing Bloodsport to land on the bottom floor just in time to save Ratcatcher II.

Didn't Think This Through
 The Suicide Squad / int_8d0785d5
comment
Didn't Think This Through: It is shown that Waller and her staff apparently didn't do a thorough enough background check on all of the Squad members, leading to a few embarrassing moments on the mission. This includes Weasel apparently drowning as soon as Squad A arrives at their drop-off point, because nobody checked if he knew how to swim beforehand, and putting Bloodsport on a team with a person who can control rats, without knowing he has musophobia (phobia of rats). Mongal's fate shows that even with superpowers, it's important to think things through; she tries to take down the attack helicopter by leaping onto the landing skids, the type of move you'd expect Wonder Woman would effortlessly carry off — except here it promptly causes it to go out of control through her extra weight and momentum and crash before she can try to escape, detonating its payload and horrifically burning her to death.

Asshole Victim: No one's too upset when Starro takes over General Suarez and turns him into a mindless Mouth of Sauron. Blackguard spends all of his screentime being a jerkass and betrays the team, so it's no tragedy when his face is shot off by the Corto Maltese military. While the Herrera children most probably didn't deserve getting executed, the adults certainly did, being the heads of an oppressive regime and handing not just political dissidents, but their loved ones as well, over to Jotunheim to be assimilated/killed by Starro and become part of the Thinker's depraved "experiments".

Token Good Teammate: Flag is the only member who isn't coerced into the team as a Boxed Crook, but is a career soldier trying to do the right thing. Ratcatcher II also implies that her imprisonment was a frame job by Waller of her robbing a bank, while at worst she was guilty of petty theft. Indeed, she proves to be quite affable and the rest of the team genuinely likes her, even if they find her Rat theme offputting.

Big Bad: Starro the Conqueror is the main antagonist of the film. It is an alien entity contained in Corto Maltese but intends to destroy the Earth. There is, however, some Big Bad Ensemble and Big Bad Shuffle going on, since Starro only gets free in the final act of the movie, and up until that point the main antagonists are the Corto Maltese military (who have Starro imprisoned and believe they can control it) and, more subtly, Amanda Waller and Peacemaker (who are trying to execute a cover-up of the whole thing and are more than willing to sacrifice the Squad to do so).

Greater-Scope Villain: The ultimate bad guys behind everything in the film turn out to be the United States government, who kidnapped Starro, brought them to Earth, hired the Thinker to spend decades subjecting them to abusive experiments until they snapped, and then had Amanda Waller send in the Suicide Squad to cover up their crimes by destroying the facility — which, predictably, only results in in the vengeful Starro being unleashed on a city full of innocent humans. However, the contained nature of the story means that whatever government schemers are responsible for it all do not show up and remain The Unfought, and still enjoy Karma Houdini status by the end of the movie (although Amanda Waller and Peacemaker function as their de facto representatives in the story, and both get at least a little comeuppance for it).

 The Suicide Squad / int_9d12bbc1
comment
Foreshadowing: Waller tells Bloodsport that each of the team is chosen for their unique skills, but she immediately introduces him to Peacemaker who Bloodsport points out has the exact type of skills he has. Peacemaker also seems at odds with the rests of the Squad, as an overly patriotic individual who expresses a strong moral code and insists he fights for peace. This sets up that he's really there as The Mole for Waller to prevent people like Flag or Ratcatcher II from revealing the secrets behind their mission. When Flag is fleeing the Corto Maltese army early in the film, the group that captures him isn't wearing military uniforms. Turns out, they're actually La Résistance. Similarly, Peacemaker states seriously to his teammates that he would kill anyone—man, woman, or child—for the sake of peace. This turns out to include his teammates; he kills Flag, the most heroic and altruistic member of the Squad and someone he truly sees as a hero, and almost kills Ratcatcher II, who is both a woman and the youngest member of the team. After Ratcatcher II and Bloodsport share their backstories with the Squad, Bloodsport vows that he's going to make sure Ratcatcher II gets out of their mission alive, and she responds with a smile that she's going to get him out alive. They do indeed end up saving each other in the climax; he rescues her just before Peacemaker can murder her, and she ultimately saves them all from Starro when the latter has them cornered by summoning her rats to attack Starro, successfully killing it with help from Harley. Ratcatcher II threatens to have dozens of rats crawl up Thinker's ass. In the climax, she summons hundreds of rats who then crawl inside of Starro, a giant starfish. "Starfish" is often used as slang for a butthole. Think there's a connection? When Bloodsport and Peacemaker have their impromptu Body-Count Competition in the rebel camp, paying attention will yield that Bloodsport is the winner with twelve kills to Peacemaker's seven, foreshadowing Bloodsport coming out on top when they fight.

Continuity Nod
 The Suicide Squad / int_9dab0a6e
comment
Continuity Nod: While the film is mostly standalone and not heavily tied to any prior DCEU film, there are a few scattered allusions to the events of the first Suicide Squad. For instance, it's established in the opening scene that Harley, Boomerang and Flag all already know one another, and Boomerang is even surprised to see Harley back in prison after her escape at the end of the previous film. She's also distraught when both of them are killed, screaming Boomerang's name just before he's engulfed by an explosion. Though not referred to by name, Harley mentions a horribly abusive and obsessive ex-boyfriend when talking about how she's trying to avoid toxic relationships. There's a rare Chekhov's Skill that goes across movies, when Harley being able to perform acrobatics while hanging from the ceiling in the first movie proves helpful in freeing herself from Unwilling Suspension.

comment
King Shark's immunity to bullets is demonstrated early on when Bloodsport's souped-up weaponry proves to be unable to do more than push him backwards. This comes into play during the climax, where he takes a nasty fall off of Jotenheim and is subsequently surrounded and fired on by a squad of commandos. As before, he proves to be Not Quite Dead and rises to his feet to chow down on an unlucky soldier. If you look closely as he's being shot at, one can see that the bullets are merely bouncing off of him rather than penetrating.

Destroy the Evidence: The Squad's ultimate goal is actually to destroy the records for Project Starfish, which prove that the American government was backing the experiments. This ultimately ends up causing Peacemaker to turn against his teammates.

Overly Long Gag
 The Suicide Squad / int_a188ac4b
comment
Overly Long Gag: An explosion causes Bloodsport to make a "superhero landing" on a lower floor of the building. Said floor promptly breaks, dropping him into another superhero landing. This continues for the entire tower and precisely drops him in at the exact moment to save Ratcatcher II from Peacemaker. During the final battle, Bloodsport begins fully assembling his Ikea Weaponry to its maximum size. It takes over 10 seconds of dramatic music as everyone else waits.

Hollywood Tactics: Horribly punished in the opening scene as things go pear-shaped due to Blackguard's betrayal and everyone begins doing the stupidest things possible. Boomer and Mongal go off on their own, TDK's powers are swiftly neutralized, Savant cracks under pressure and deserts, and no-one has the common sense to retreat or take an alternate route. It leads to everyone but Flag and Harley getting killed or incapacitated due to their previous experience. Justified in this case, since that team was meant as a diversion for Bloodsport's.

Uncool Undies: During a rest period for a mission, the team is suddenly woken up during the night and it's revealed that Peacemaker sleeps only in his tighty-whiteys. Bloodsport is incredulous and calls the briefs by the "tighty-whiteys" moniker, to which Peacemaker says it's a "racist" term. Downplayed in that Peacemaker is not embarrassed at all to be seen in them, and the whole moment appears to just be a fanservice moment to get the attractive and muscular John Cena in as little clothes as possible, as there's a close-up of his crotch in the underwear.

Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy: Zigzagged with the Corto Maltese army. They often miss their shots when aiming and firing at Task Force X but they are able to gun down Blackguard, Javelin, TDK, and Milton. King Shark in particular does get hit with bullets but his skin is so thick that the bullets just bounce off of him. In one case during the Jotunheim entrance fight scene, rain is falling down so heavily that it negatively affects the accuracy of the soldiers, as Bloodsport lampshades.

Alas, Poor Villain: Starro's last words (through Mateo Suarez) are a lamentation about how it was happy floating in space, looking at the stars. The first squad's casualties elicit sympathy on account of being downright pathetic. The only exceptions to this are Blackguard, who clearly deserved what came to him. Captain Boomerang is one of the worst considering his sad final smile to Harley as he accepts his fate, as well as her anguished reaction to his death. Similarly, Javelin is given a rather somber sendoff as well, resigning himself to his death and passing on his weapon to Harley.

Then it segues into a hilarious Destructo-Nookie. And then Harley kills him one scene later when she learns how far he's willing to go to hold onto power.

They all decide to turn around and fight.

Touch of Death: While Bloodsport, Flag, and Peacemaker are handcuffed inside an armored transport, Bloodsport begins talking with their captors about the ability to kill a man with one strike. The lead captor admits to knowing about such a thing, but how it's so unlikely to work as to be effectively impossible. "That's what [...] amateurs say." Cue Bloodsport, Flag, and Peacemaker all striking their captors at the same time, and instantly killing them. They each also use different methods (kneeing, kicking, headbutting) all with the same result.

 The Suicide Squad / int_b4a6ae4c
comment
Everyone Has Standards: Peacemaker is a brutal murderer, but is disgusted by the fact that Bloodsport kills people for money rather than out of a sense of duty. He's also clearly shaken by having to kill Flag, whom he considers an American hero, to to keep America's involvement in Project Starfish a secret. When he tries to execute Ratcatcher II for the same reason, he's on the verge of tears and genuinely apologizes for what he's about to do to her. And despite being willing to cover up the Project Starfish experiments for the U.S. government's sake, he still is repulsed by the experiments themselves and calls the Thinker out for making himself out as the victim for losing his research. Harley shoots Luna after learning that he plans to feed the children of his enemies to Starro, saying that killing kids is "kind of a red flag." Upon seeing that she fully intends to let Starro slaughter the entire population of the capital city of Corto Maltese, the Task Force X mission control staff turn on Waller, with Flo knocking her out with her own golf club when she tries to stop the Squad from taking down Starro by activating the bombs in their necks, before giving the Squad updates on Starro's locations. Prior to this, Economos is clearly disgusted when Waller implicitly threatens to have Bloodsport's daughter killed if he doesn't agree to join Task Force X. Ratcatcher II is overcome with emotion after seeing the throngs of people that the Thinker has been torturing and experimenting on for decades. Flag is outright sickened by what he sees, and becomes enraged when the Thinker reveals that the U.S. government was involved in the project.

Too Dumb to Live: The American astronauts who initially found and captured Starro only restrained him with zip-ties and then pose for pictures next to him. General Suarez lampshades how utterly shortsighted they were to bring an unknown alien life-form aboard their space station without any protective measures. They ended up becoming Starro's first victims. When Harley seemingly passes out while being tortured, her torturer proceeds to start playing on his phone, while standing right next to her, with his back turned. Cue the Murderous Thighs. When La Résistance has the generals of Corto Maltese dead to rights with automatic rifles trained on them, one of them is still foolish enough to go for his sidearm, getting all of them killed.

Undignified Death: None of the casualties from the opening battle go out looking good. It says a lot that Captain Boomerang (kills a few guys, then gets crushed by a burning helicopter) and Javelin (gets shot without making a single kill, passes his javelin to Harley, and fails to finish his dying speech) are probably the most favorable. The Detachable Kid is shot without accomplishing anything, Mongal is the one who crashed the helicopter to begin with, because it turns out she overestimated how well she could survive a crash, Blackguard is shot in the face by the enemy while trying to rat his team out, Savant turns into a blubbering mess and flees from the battlefield before his head explodes, and Weasel seemingly drowns because nobody checked if he could swim.

Relative Button: This is how Amanda recruits Bloodsport. They allow his daughter Tyla to visit him, and she confesses that she got arrested for shoplifting a TV watch. Bloodsport tries to give her advice on how to steal better under the watchful eyes of the security guards, which leads to them having a shouting match because she wants him to be a better parent. Then Tyla's tough girl facade breaks; she begs Bloodsport for help because her court date is coming up, and the Wall has an interest in her. When Bloodsport confronts Amanda, she confirms that Tyla won't be going to juvie for a petty crime if he refuses to join the Task Force; she'll be tried as an adult and sent to Belle Rêve, a prison with the highest mortality rate in the country. This convinces him after Amanda shows him that killing her won't end the threat.

Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: With The Suicide Squad being intended as a Soft Reboot, only four characters introduced in the first film appear here. The other members of the previous lineup, such as Deadshot and Killer Croc, are completely absent without explanation, though several were genuinely happy with their situations at the end of the first and likely wouldn't be as desperate this time around. Birds of Prey ends with Harley taking Cassandra Cain under her wing and the two driving away together. In The Suicide Squad, Harley is back in Belle Reve again and doesn't mention Cass at all.

 The Suicide Squad / int_c67af1b0
comment
Big Bad Wannabe: The film establishes early on that the ruling regime of Corto Maltese has been recently overthrown and replaced with a military dictatorship, but these human generals predictably prove to be significantly less of a threat than a giant alien starfish. General Presidente Silvio Luna seeks to use Starro as a weapon against the US and his other enemies, not even caring if children are among those killed. As soon as he says this, Harley decides that this is a major step too far and shoots him dead. Mateo Suarez is much more openly sadistic than Luna, and the film seems set to take a darker turn when he takes over after Luna's death. This ultimately doesn't prove to be the case, as Suarez doesn't fare any better than Luna and is rendered utterly helpless when Starro escapes, becoming one of its mindless hosts and dying as a result. And then finally after Suarez's death the remaining generals are about to choose a new leader when the Resistance guns them down and reclaims the government.

Shout-Out
 The Suicide Squad / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: The main poster of the film (pictured above on this page) is a riff on the poster◊ for The Dirty Dozen, one of the main inspirations for both the film and the comic it is based on. The island where the action takes place is named Corto Maltese. Bloodsport casually brings up the martial arts concept of "Dim Mak" or "death touch" to Flag and Peacemaker when they're in a paddy wagon, right before using it to break themselves out. It's actually from an older movie also named Bloodsport. What the Thinker is doing with the infected humans is very similar to the treatment of the zombies in the lab in Day of The Dead. As they're about to raid the presidential palace, Rick Flag calls Ratcatcher "Ratatouille". The design of the Thinker's head electrodes strongly resembles the logo/mascot of Geniol, a pain medication brand very successful in Argentina that uses the image of a bald man with many nails hammered into his head. Given that many aspects of the fictional country it's set in are based on Argentina, it's likely that this is intentional. A guy named Milton, who's mostly ignored by his colleagues, gets killed in an Office Space. The way King Shark rips a soldier in half is reminiscent of a Fatality from the Mortal Kombat games (which are also a Warner property, by the way).

Hyper-Destructive Bouncing Ball: The film opens with Savant in his bare concrete cell in Belle Reve staring emptily at the wall, listening to "Folsom Prison Blues" while bouncing a ball off the floor. When he sees a small bird land in the cell, he throws the ball at the wall, where upon it bounces off the other walls before killing the bird. One can understand his frustration, but let's just say the bird gets the last word.

Bad People Abuse Animals: While both are members of a military dictatorship, Suarez establishes himself as more pragmatic and less romantic than Luna by setting the latter's pet birds on fire after Luna's death. The United States government's reprehensible experiments on the sentient alien starfish Starro is the catalyst for the entire film. An interesting variation when it comes to Savant. He's shown to be needlessly cruel and kills a bird in his introduction scene. However, later on he also saves Weasel from drowning even though he hardly got to know Weasel and indeed for all he knew, Weasel was just some dumb, mutated animal.

Adaptation Name Change
 The Suicide Squad / int_dc057cf3
comment
The original Ratcatcher was an Irish-American from Gotham City in the comics, but in the film, he hails from Portugal. This may also entail a bit of an Adaptation Name Change, as Ratcatcher's surname was Flannegan in the comics, while here, his real name isn't mentioned and his daughter's last name is Cazo. The change neatly lines up with Ratcatcher II's actor, as she is Portuguese.

comment
What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?: When initially introduced to Polka-Dot Man, Peacemaker asks what kind of power throwing polka dots at people actually is. Polka-Dot Man's powers ultimately proves the only thing able to directly injure Starro in the final battle, where Bloodsport and King Shark caused minimal damage and Ratcatcher II needed overwhelming numbers of rats and a lucky shot from Harley (using a weapon she'd only just acquired hours ago) to take him down. This is played more straight with The Detachable Kid whose power is that he can... detach his arms and float them really slowly. He proves to be absolutely useless because all he can do is meekly slap the armed soldiers attacking him, who are more confused than anything.

comment
Decoy Protagonist: The opening scene introduces and names several new members of Flag's Squad, particularly focusing on Savant, who is implied to be the film's Audience Surrogate. With the exceptions of Harley and Flag, everyone on this first Squad, including Savant, are killed as soon as they arrive at Corto Maltese (though Weasel is revealed to be alive in The Stinger). It's then revealed that Waller was using them as a distraction for a second Squad led by Bloodsport, who arrive on the other side of the island and become the film's primary focus.

Karmic Jackpot: Bloodsport realizes that in good conscience, he can't leave Starro to eat Corto Maltese. Instead, he and the squad unanimously agree to defy orders, stop Starro, and minimize the casualties. This gets them labeled on international news as heroes, and Tyla proudly says that's her dad on television. What's more, there is too much heat on them for the Wall to make them disappear but for extra insurance, Bloodsport uses evidence of American crimes to secure everyone's freedom and their lives.

Not Quite Dead: The first post-credits scene confirms that Weasel didn't actually die, he was instead unconscious the entire movie. The second post-credits scene shows that Peacemaker also survived his fight with Bloodsport and is comatose but recuperating in A.R.G.U.S.'s hospital. A Freeze-Frame Bonus reveals that TDK is in critical condition, with Gunn confirming he isn't dead. Granted, his survival chances don't look too good, but neither did Weasel's or Peacemaker's.

We Need a Distraction: Lampshaded when Bloodsport's team come ashore unopposed, and Waller notes it's because the Corto Maltese military were "distracted" killing off the first Suicide Squad. Although it's not part of their mission, Flag points out to the Rebel Leader that the Squad — whether they succeed or get captured — will draw the soldiers away from the Palace clearing the way for La Résistance to attack. When soldiers enter the strip club looking for "Americans", Bloodsport has the others hustle The Thinker out the back door, then loudly surrenders along with Flag and Peacemaker.

Gorn: This is easily one of the goriest comic book movies ever made, on par with Punisher: War Zone and Logan. The violence is much more graphic than even Birds of Prey, and somehow even manages to top Justice League Dark: Apokolips War. At one point, King Shark rips a soldier in half vertically with all his guts spilling out, and the opening scene has Blackguard's face being literally shot off.

Quick Draw: In the climax, Peacemaker is about to kill Ratcatcher II to keep the US government's crimes from getting out when Bloodsport literally drops in. It culminates in them firing simultaneously to the point where their bullets collide. Bloodsport wins due to his smaller-caliber bullet piercing and shattering Peacemaker's bigger one.

Waller tells Bloodsport that each of the team is chosen for their unique skills, but she immediately introduces him to Peacemaker who Bloodsport points out has the exact type of skills he has. Peacemaker also seems at odds with the rests of the Squad, as an overly patriotic individual who expresses a strong moral code and insists he fights for peace. This sets up that he's really there as The Mole for Waller to prevent people like Flag or Ratcatcher II from revealing the secrets behind their mission.

Black Site: Subverted this time with Belle Reve. In the previous film it was established as a black site named Belle Reve Special Security Barracks used to exclusively house villains and metahumans. However, in this iteration it has been renamed Belle Reve Correctional Center and appears to have been absorbed into the official US prison system. Waller even tells Bloodsport that if his daughter is tried and convicted as an adult she could be sent to Belle Reve, even for something as minor as theft.

Moral Pragmatist: Rather than leak the evidence to the American people about what happened with Starro, Bloodsport uploads the hard drive contents to a remote secure server and promises Amanda Waller that it will remain confidential, unless she kills them, threatens their families, or fails to secure their releases. If they die or his daughter ends up in jail, the server is set to release all of the information. His reasoning is that the Wall will go after them and their families if they try to honor Flag's wishes, and otherwise they have no leverage over the American government. Harley isn't thrilled about this, because Flag was her friend, but she agrees that being a martyr is not worth it when they have living people who need them.

Screw the War, We're Partying: When the Squad arrives at Thinker's preferred nightclub to intercept him, Flag has the idea of just one drink as they could all be killed during the mission; the Squad accept and from there they mellow out considerably — Flag and Bloodsport reminisce about old times and Ratcatcher II and Polka-Dot Man dance where Peacemaker has an attempt. Unusually, nobody gets out of control and when Thinker arrives the gang intercept him as planned, but have to split up when the Army shows up.

Beauty Is Bad
 The Suicide Squad / int_f829585a
comment
Beauty Is Bad: Good looks overlap with a a knack for violence at best, full-on villainy at worst. Bloodsport, a violent killer with very few morals, is played by the immensely handsome and charming Idris Elba. Sure, Captain Boomerang's looks are played down, but not enough to disguise that Jai Courtney is one hunky dude. Javelin's flowing hair and form fitting costume makes him apply as well. And as the film notes, the accent helps. Peacemaker is portrayed by the handsome John Cena, who gets to show off his muscular physique with a rather tight shirt, and has an entire scene where he stands in his underwear. Even his spin-off series set shortly after this film lampshades this: "Just because you're handsome doesn't mean you're not a piece of shit murderer!" Silvio Luna is a rather hot dictator, and his introduction to Harley is clearly banking on her liking his state of undress. She does.

comment
Running Gag: After Javelin gives her his eponymous weapon in his dying moments, telling her to use it for an unspecified great purpose (he dies mid-sentence), Harley spends most of the film openly questioning what this great purpose could possibly be. She ultimately uses it to cut into Starro, giving Ratcatcher II's army of rats the opportunity to kill him from the inside. Polka-Dots Man keeps seeing everyone around him as his mother, including his squadmates, people in a night club, and Starro. People wondering why Sebastian (Ratcatcher II's pet rat) is waving at them or offering them a leaf, and another character (usually Ratcatcher II, but not always) answering that he's trying to be friendly. Ratcatcher II's youth is a frequent source of comedy. She's frequently sleepy and a Heavy Sleeper. During her briefing, she doesn't recognize what an overhead projector is.

Artistic License – Physics: In the real world, there is no gun able to give a bullet enough kinetic energy to go through a bigger bullet (even if both bullets were shaped exactly like the ones used by Bloodsport and Peacemaker), let alone doing that and also going through the other shooter's gun and hitting them.note Even if this was possible, both shooters would have to shoot at the exact same time and in a perfect straight line between them, which would be extremely unlikely, especially in the heat of battle.

There's a rather buxom secretary prone to bouncing in the office of the Corto Maltese generals. She becomes a blood-splattered innocent.

Dark and Troubled Past
 The Suicide Squad / int_fed93e1b
comment
Dark and Troubled Past: Ratcatcher II grew up homeless with her father in Portugal, the two relying on the rats he controlled with his equipment to provide them with food and money. Polka-Dot Man and his siblings were subjected to cruel experiments by their own mother, who wanted to create her own superheroes. He is one of the few test subjects who survived the process. Not only is he Cursed with Awesome by the interdimensional virus inside him, but the experience left him so traumatized that he has frequent hallucinations of his mother. Peacemaker and Bloodsport were both raised by their abusive fathers, mercenaries who trained and beat them as children to shape them into super soldiers. Bloodsport's father would put him in a box full of rats as punishment.

Diving Save: At the climax, when Ratcatcher II climbs on a car carcass and begins calling rats with her power, Bloodsport has to get away from the Starro zombies to jump on Cleo and push her out of the way right as a Starro appendage nearly crush them.

Evil-Detecting Dog
 The Suicide Squad / int_ff6ae1f6
comment
Evil-Detecting Dog: Rat, rather. While Bloodsport isn't thrilled, Cleo says that Sebastian, her main rat, likes him and he's a good judge of character. Her faith is rewarded when Bloodsport won't turn his back on innocent people as Starro is rampaging through the city. Cleo says with a smile, as she follows him into battle and certain death, that she knew Sebastian saw good in him. It also freaks out when entering the basement of Jotunheim, where Project Starfish is being kept.

Adaptational Nationality
 The Suicide Squad / int_ff6d8ad9
comment
Adaptational Nationality: In the comics, Bloodsport was an African-American Vietnam vet. Here, he's presumably Black British, as he speaks with Idris Elba's natural London accent. Similarly, despite being depicted as American in the comics, The Thinker speaks in Peter Capaldi's own accent. The original Ratcatcher was an Irish-American from Gotham City in the comics, but in the film, he hails from Portugal. This may also entail a bit of an Adaptation Name Change, as Ratcatcher's surname was Flannegan in the comics, while here, his real name isn't mentioned and his daughter's last name is Cazo. The change neatly lines up with Ratcatcher II's actor, as she is Portuguese.

Pet the Dog
 The Suicide Squad / int_ff7f34c5
comment
Pet the Dog: Ratcatcher II establishes herself as The Heart of the group when she offers to befriend King Shark. Harley futilely tries to save Javelin from the beach attack. In a Please, Don't Leave Me moment, she keeps asking why she must carry his weapon per his dying wishes. Later, she gives Flag a tight hug on seeing that he's alive and came to rescue her from President Luna and General Suarte. When Starro succeeds in disarming and surrounding the remaining Squad with Harley and Nanaue briefly incapacitated, he doesn't kill them though he has a clear shot to Zerg Rush them. Instead, it says that the city belongs to it after the government tortured it for decades. Bloodsport even looks sympathetic for Starro, while knowing that he is too hostile and broken to be allowed to live. Ratcatcher II in a Heroic Second Wind tells Starro she feels sorry for it, but the city belongs to the citizens. Then she unleashes an army of rats to Zerg Rush Starro proactively. A Corto Maltese soldier expresses sympathy for the fate that awaits his captives and lights a cigarette for one of them. Which doesn't stop our heroes from killing him.

Death Seeker: Polka-Dot Man is one due to his horrific disease. When Bloodsport grouses, "We're all gonna die," Polka-Dot Man moans, "I hope so..." He begins to turn around in the climax, finding a new purpose in life as a superhero... only for Starro to crush him.
