The Suicide Squad first reactions say the film is unlike anything we’ve seen

James Gunn has sought out to make something truly unique with The Suicide Squad and, if these first reactions to the film are to be believed, the director has done that and then some. Many people who have screened the film early have taken to social media to declare that The Suicide Squad is unlike anything we've seen before and that we should prepare for a truly unique comic book movie experience.

James Gunn's The Suicide Squad follows the members of Task Force X after they're sent to the South American island of Corto Maltese to destroy Jotunheim, a Nazi-era prison, and laboratory which held political prisoners and conducted experiments. The large ensemble cast includes Idris Elba as Bloodsport, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, John Cena as Peacemaker, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag, David Dastmalchian as Polka-Dot Man, Daniela Melchior as Ratcatcher 2, Jai Courtney as Captain Boomerang, Peter Capaldi as Thinker, Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, Alice Braga as Sol Soria, Pete Davidson as Blackguard, Michael Rooker as Savant, Nathan Fillion as T.D.K., Sean Gunn as Weasel, Flula Borg as Javelin, Juan Diego Botto as Silvio Luna, and Mayling Ng as Mongal. Steve Agee is also pulling double duty doing the motion capture for King Shark and starring as John Economos, while Sylvester Stallone provides the vocal talent for King Shark.
