Suicide Squad
word of advice ! Contains freebooter forHarley Quinn#16 !
The originalSuicide Squadmovie features many awkward and cringey moments , whichHarley Quinnhilariously pass water fun of in the a la mode issue of her comic . In ridiculing this minute , the comedian actually improves on it importantly . Although given the lack of quality of the flick , this is unsurprising .
The DCEU is the condition for the collection of movies have up the portion out DC Universe introduced byMan of Steel . While more late entries likeThe Suicide SquadandShazamhave featured a healthy amount of levity and brightness , earlier movies more often than not had a much overstrung tincture . Perhaps no other pic suffered from this as much as the originalSuicide Squadmovie ( which evenSuicide Squaddirector David Ayer may agree with ) . One of that film ’s most flagrant sins was its mischaracterization of Harley Quinn , encapsulate in her introductory flashback . Suicide Squaduses a flashback to show Harley ’s arrest at the hands of Batman . On a “ Date Night ” with the Joker , the couplet are drive aside from Batman in a red convertible when Joker crashes the car off a bridge . Batman dives into the water after Harley , who respond by trying to attack him . He knocks her out and brings her to the airfoil where he attempts to give her mouth to sassing . She then release that snatch of CPR into a forcible buss much to Batman ’s disgust .

Harley Quinn#16 by Stephanie Phillips and Riley Rossmo open with a flashback to Harley Quinn driving a ruddy convertible out from Batman just like in the film ( although he is n’t in the Batfleck suit ) . Just like in the movie , she crashes the car into the water and is then rescued by Batman . However , the comic makes the scene almost unrecognisable from the movie , improving on every face of it .
The Joker is lacking in the comedian , giving Harley the agency that she lacked in the Suicide Squad scene and sparing the reviewer from having to look at Jared Leto ’s horrendous version of the character . In addition , Harley ’s actions make much more sense in the comedian . She drive the elevator car into the water in an effort to leap across a bridge deck . She also does n’t ego - destructively lash out at the individual saving her from drowning . Even her dialog makes more sense , cite the movie version ’s awkward “ Batsy , Batsy ” business line by say “ See ya subsequently , Batsy ! ” ( although the original line is one of themost unwittingly rum lines in the DCEU ) . But perhaps the near advance the comic makes is in its bright and fun tone . While taking place at Nox just like the movie , the comedian uses the night lights of Gotham to cast the action and theatrical role in warm colors , a great contrast to the overly dark and irksome motion-picture photography ofSuicide Squad . And in the comedian , Harley fail to flim-flam Batman into giving her CPR , turning it into a fun moment of banter that fits both character better .
Suicide Squadis broadly pan by both critics and lover for a sort of ground . But it is especially hated for how flat and bland most of its quality are ( although its rebootThe Suicide Squad improved on this aspectas well ) . In ameliorate on one of its regretful scenes , theHarley Quinnseries is both exemplify how badSuicide Squad ’s interpretation of the character was and showing how majuscule and fun the character can be when done well .
