Back to back show today at the theater

Lights Out (2016)



Simple but effectively scary. Beautifully done.

Suicide Squad (2016)



Initially I thought they were going to adapt 2014 Batman animated flick Assault on Arkham for the big screen this time which offers more or less the same characters but a different plot where Joker was the main antagonist and Batman appears as the final savior! I enjoyed that one. Anyway, with a different villain and set up, DC-WB's this 3rd major installment wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be (particularly, after even looking at the headlines on some of the recent critic reviews i.e. 'worse than Fant4stic'!). But that doesn't mean it was good either; just an okay, time-passing but at the end forgettable average flick for DC-WB collaboration. The villain(s) and the final showdown were the major disappointments as well as the way they put Joker into the story was a big letdown, IMO.
