Although maybe not Suicide Squad, I actually do think it's sort of... awful... and utterly forgettable. But I have a very strong suspicion that there's a good version of it lying in tatters all over a cutting room floor somewhere.

It's all a bit empty... like a "filler" episode of a TV show. I think it suffered by being so popular, and they made a better film first time round when they had no idea that it was going to be a hit.

The only really fun parts are Baby Groot (then they made me SAD by turning him into teenage groot in the post-credits), and "I'm Mary Poppins y'all!"

GOTG2 had an underwhelming first half and a great second half I thought. Splitting up the team for so long was a mistake but once they got back together for the second half, it got way better.
