The first reviews of The Suicide Squad differ on some finer points but largely agree about one key element: It’s far better than the first Suicide Squad movie.
Meanwhile, James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad opens in theaters and premieres on HBO Max on August 5.
After talking at length about his personal biography, Ayer wrote that he “put my life into Suicide Squad.”
Ayer ends his note by saying he’s “proud” of James Gunn and “excited for the success that’s coming” to him and Warner Bros. It’s not about The Suicide Squad; it’s about his cut of Suicide Squad.
