Plucked from Belle Reve penitentiary, the world’s most dangerous criminals are chucked together by the government and affectionately named Task Force X.

Their mission? To infiltrate the enemy-filled island of Corto Maltese and destroy Jotunheim, a Nazi-era prison that once carried out lots of weird experiments.

If they didn’t have to work their way through a dangerous jungle environment – where agonising death is always just a footstep away – it’d probably be a walk in the park.

Led by Col. Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman, Suicide Squad, House of Cards, Altered Carbon), the newly formed Suicide Squad encounter plenty of surprises along the way –  some being much, much bigger than others.

Margot Robbie (Suicide Squad, Birds of Prey, Bombshell, I, Tonya, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood) reprises her role as the twisted Harley Quinn, while Idris Elba (Luther, Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw) stars as the highly skilled hitman Bloodsport.

The mega cast also includes Sylvester Stallone (Rocky, Guardians of the Galaxy), Taika Waititi (Jojo Rabbit, Thor: Ragnarok), Michael Rooker (Guardians of the Galaxy), Viola Davis (Suicide Squad, Fences, Widows), Jai Courtney (Suicide Squad, Terminator Genisys), Pete Davidson (The King of Staten Island) and Nathan Fillion (Castle).

The most fun.

Cunningly scuzzy, disreputable fun.
