The trippy surrealism is actually something I could get behind. But the excessive and often unfunny humor is what ruined Vol 2 for me. Drax was a real character in the first movie. After that, he’s just there for “dumb guy” jokes. But the real downside is that Gunn unleashed allows his mean spirited demented side to take over. I’m honestly surprised that so many people found The Suicide Squad to be funny. It did have its moments, but it’s also twisted AF and incredibly immature- like a screenplay by an edge lord middle school kid. I mean, to be fair, when you have a property with a dark premise that has ‘suicide’ in the title, something like that is difficult to avoid. Is it though? I get that the material is darker and warrants some dark humor. But it’s also got a talking shark in it so it’s not exactly The Punisher. I mean, did the beach sequence really need to be more violent than Saving Private Ryan? Who exactly is the target audience here?
