The Suicide Squad (FULL MOVIE REACTION)
🕑 Added 2025-01-24 15:00:14 +0000 UTCAlright, I feel another long ass post coming out...
HOLY SHIT!!! This movie was EVERYTHING the 2016 version wanted to be but just... couldn’t. Look, I don’t hate the first movie. I actually really enjoyed it. But after watching this one, I realized how much better the second one is compared to the first. Now... the first movie. It had potential, it had the cast, it had the vibe it was trying to hit, but it ended up being kind of like a band with all the right instruments but no sheet music. You could see what they were aiming for, but the execution? Shit was kinda messy and didn't really hit the mark in my opinion.
Enter James Gunn!!! FUCKING LEGEND!! This guy brought a whole new vibe! Insane action, legitimately funny ass humor, and, most importantly, HEART. Every character had a purpose, and you found yourself rooting for characters you never thought you’d care about. Ratcatcher?!?!?! A LEGEND. King Shark? I just wanted to hug that lovable bastard! And don’t even get me started on Harley Quinn—Margot Robbie in this movie is PEAKKKKKKK
What I loved most was how Gunn leaned into the absurdity. It didn’t feel like the movie was ashamed of itself or trying to over-explain why these misfits were cool. It embraced the chaos and made it work. The first movie felt like it was written by a committee, trying to please everyone but fucking that objective up. This one? It was bold, unapologetic, and FUN.
The soundtrack slapped FUCKING HARD too, the visuals were wild, and the pacing kept you hooked from start to finish. It’s like the first movie was the rough draft, and this was the masterpiece we deserved!!
What did y’all think???
Have an awesome weekend, everyone! See you all next week!
Love,
Alex

I think Pete Davidson is a great rebound, which is why I think why they go to him? I think he might be great emotional support. Which is also why they don't stay.
Jason Diachun
Fuck yeah you can! Welcome and enjoy!
Peter Seereiter
I’m 2 minutes into my first ever Patreon experience. This is way funnier without the edits when ur acting stuff out. Can I swear on Patreon?
NuunOzil
You need to watch Creature Commandos Alex, promise you’ll love that show lol
Season
peacemaker show is so peak, the comedy is right up your street
Dylan Hellar
Pretty sure a lot people did lol that movie is buns
Mace Blair
Bro Alex has to watch creature commandos now lol
Michael Tetkowski
now you have to watch the peacemaker show
Benny
I believe he would love it. Think he would also love Kong and his journey in the Monsterverse.
sathurian easan
That so doesn't make sense. The people he dated had way more money. Now connections are a different thing.
Mari-sheep
You know i was just thinking the same
Nick Howser
The thing Alex doesn't understand about Pete Davidson is money.
canonscott
god he missed so much context for harley not watching birds of prey
Ian
Well now he HAS to watch Peacemaker at some point. I also highly recommend Creature Commandos.
Entorri
God, you would LOVE the Peacemaker series! Just as much heart, humor, and absurdity as this film, because James Gunn wrote and directed the series too!
Ali Rifai
Alex, if you liked this movie you should definitely watch peacemaker it follows on his character and what happens next with it
Jonathan Garcia
You should watch the wild robot
Impulse RL
Yo Alex you ever seen Ace Ventura?
Marcos Andino Jr.
Omg yes I believe Alex would enjoy that show and with episode get a real understanding of the situation with Weasel
Kazu
Am I the only one that thinks Shin Godzilla or Godzilla: King of Monsters would be perfect for Alex?
Kalen Shoemaker
I typed this when you said the comment. Just finished the video.
Kalen Shoemaker
The director of this And this guardians trilogy. Is now the head of DC. So they honestly should be
JP
We gotta see your reaction to creature commandos, especially the episode about weasel’s backstory. And of course you gotta watch peacemaker now. Also, James Gunn is now co-chairman and CEO of DC Studios. Everything DC does should be at this level of quality from here on out with him in control
Robert Hahn
Good news that Gunn is in charge of the DC universe now.
Robert Hahn
Yes there Director and a better story
Alex
Like what everyone is saying peacemaker will be the greatest reaction for you
Alisina Sarvari
U should Watch peacemaker serie
Bedwars Master
James Gunn is head of the new DCU universe
Bedwars Master
they explore an alternate version of his backstory in creature commandos
Marcos Andino Jr.
Well since you loved John Cena in here (even though he was hard to see… or was he even there ? Idk I saw his name in the credits) you definitely need to check out the Peacemaker series
NaverZ
If you like Harley Quinn you should watch "Harley Quinn the animated series" it's great.
Thunder
James Gunn is actually taking over the DC movies as the head of the new movie universe and is directing the new Superman coming out!!
Agus Mercado
This movie was good 👍🏽
Joe Peterson
You have to watch Peacemaker now it will end up being your favorite super hero show for sure
Joovain
10000% but it will take like 10 years to get sonic movies to win polls or even get to polls.
Michael
Something totally random that I’ve noticed, I don’t think you’ve ever noticed how often you’ve watch movies with Idris Elba lately
TacticalFox31
Don't know if you will see this but, a movie series that is a must watch is the Sonic movies. You might already have plans to do them, but if not I highly recommend them. I just watched Sonic 3 and it was amazing and they are doing so well the producers are working on 4 and they said if people keep enjoying them. They have no problem making the Sonic movies as big and expansive as the Marvel universe.
Joovain
This movie was so good.
Nic Carbone
Gotta watch peacemaker
Jack S.
Gotta watch the peacemaker show now!!
Neon_ninja
"are these real characters," yes yes they are lol. we gotta bribe him somehow to watch the Arrowverse, especially The Flash just for him to get to King Shark vs Grodd, etc even during the crazy woke years at the end. We'll have to make it a goal of so many sign up or donate at the max we can get him to watch the Arrowverse in order: https://arrowverse.info/ - come on! it's not THAT long!
Neon_ninja
"No! Not the new dumb friends!" "New dumb friends ya!" "...oh..." lmfao 🤣🤣🤣
LogicPBX
Now Peacemaker. . . then Creature Comandos
Cricket Cole
Please check out severance!!! I think it’s a show you’ll truly enjoy and be super invested in! Look forward to it! Thanks!
Marcus Frederiksen
One of James Gunn's favorite superhero movies is Deadpool
jamie minnell
dont expect them to go any further with this story line so imma spoil it, in the comics weasel was trying to save a kid who a cereal killa was trying to kill and they saw weasel with the kid after he was trying to save them so they blamed it on him
Michael Shelton
Snyder got railroaded and the dc studio has been downhill since they started filming this movie.
Linda Thackeray
I love this moview because never in a thousand years would I have figured I would see Starro the Starfish Conqueror in a big budget film.
Austin Barbur
He's in for nice surprise when he finds out James gunn is going to be heavily involved with all DC media from now on
Martin Machon
After this, you have to watch the Peacemaker series. John cena's series with the same character of the movie 😄
Jack
I forgot The Doctor was in this!
RNikolow
Anyone saw Kevin Hart at 12:41 😂
RNikolow
Weasel is innocent and his story is quite sad. Watch “Creature Commandos” and you will see 🙌🏻
Charles Walker
Peacemakerrrrr
Michael
Watch peacemaker, one of the funniest shows I’ve ever watched of all time and it is on par with that Deadpool like humor, you will absolutely love it
Arsaces Arsacid
Peacemaker! It's perfectly in line with your humor.
Ana
The thing about Pete Davidson is he's charming. He has good rizz
John Mooney
You should watch Peacemaker after this. It's so good. Season 2 is out this year.
JestrrJack897
Fun fact Weasel was actually completely innocent despite being convicted of the murder of 6 children (and suspected for the other 21), he was actually trying to save them lol
Jordan Tanner
Is someone going to let Alex know that James Gunn is the head of DC studios now?
Ana
King shark is the most annoying villain in the flash tv show. I hate when he shows up in episodes same with that damn gorilla. But in this movie I loved King shark
Easton McAninch
Now that James Gunn is the head of DC I’m sure more movies will be like this! Can’t wait for the new Superman movie!
Jake Gelfand
Yes, Alex please start pausing more. I know you initially didn’t used to because you provided a timer and we had to have our own copy of the movie, but now that you show the movie with the reaction, please use pausing when you talk, so many things get missed.
Brady Bird
I finally understand why alex don't see important things from movies, bro just talks and doesn't pause
Jeremiah Hernandez
You should definitely watch creature commandos would be a cool binge to see
Sympotaz
Also got to do peacemaker not long after this! Show is absolutely amazing but need to try keep this movie freshish to understand character.
Snc1891
the next show after squid games and arcane should be peacemaker. It is not long only 8 episodes, also produced by james gunn
Andrew Carrillo
Peacemaker next show!! You would love Adrian chase in that show 😅
maliemoment
Now you gotta do Birds of Prey!!!
hello
Skip Wonder Woman just go straight to justice league
Callum McAllister
Watch peacemaker
Tom
Def should watch Peacemaker! Super amazing show and you'd love it.
Miles Barsness
Or both
Farmer Jayy
Hope we get around to Wonder Woman so we can then jump into Zack Snyders Justice League have a awesome friday Alex.
Cory
Dude you try too hard to hate on things other people enjoy. It’s cool if you don’t like it, but going out of your way to shit on things is pretty childish. Calm down
Weronika
Amazing reaction! I think for a future animated show you would actually really enjoy Harley Quinn animated series. It has the same type of humor as this movie, so I think it might be worth checking out
Eben
He needs to watch peacemaker!!!!!
Rrishii99
You must be a Snyder glazer lmfao
Jake
Okay Alex, you got to watch peacemaker S1 now after this haha, basically kicks off straight after this movie. It’s a good show to watch as well
Abuzz Klanica
James Gunn is THE director that comicbook movies needed
Jonathan Johansson
Like everyone else have said. You gotta watch the show Peacemaker now! It litterly a must!
Melody Netherton
or tounge game lol
Excalibur
Really enjoyed this reaction! Please think about reacting to Wicked!!
Zach Zbinden
Also margots escape scene tied up was all her no stunt double.
Mohammad Khan
The Pete Davison comment is so real lmfao
Ryan Byrne
Asking if he’s called Sebastian when she literally calls him it several times, I’m sure you don’t pay attention 🤣
Ben Staples
Pete Davison obviously has a fecking huge shlong 🤷🏼♂️
Josh Bruner
I hope he does them all! Plus YOUNG JUSTICE!
Yovani Paredes
Peacemaker is a must!!!
Nightmareman99
Believe it or not the weasel’s backstory with him being a “kid killers” is far sadder that in sounds. Creature commando goes into what really happen and it wasn’t what it seemed. Yeah sadly together dlc live action films don’t meet the standards of this film. But the DCAU (DC Animated Universe) films do they all kick ass. It’s a series of 13-16 films all connected in the same universe covering everything from the justice league and Batman to teen titans and the suicide squad Kick ass series of films that can Rival the mcu imo
PuNKD Steven
Peacemaker time
Andre
You’ve gotta watch Peacemaker now!!
Josh Bruner
If we wait and go back to finishing the Snyder-verse the second season will be out and he can do both at once.
Ki M
Do Peacemaker and Creature Commando
F3nn
Now I'm curious about the history that was told about "The Canada" and if it touched on WW1
Joeyrke
Drink some more vinegar please😜😘
unknown.
I feels like your reaction is delayed
Shrimmppp
What happened to Aaron his editor?
Preston McClerren
Alex i'm sure you know what the deal is with Pete. Usually when they look like that, with money.. money helps but it's the hog... right?
Heretic
This is starting to feel like one piece, how long before it gets better than the first?
Shrimmppp
I knew it, I KNEW IT!! This was the suicide you needed!
Heretic
42 mins in and I stand by everything I said, also this villain and plot is so similar to the Ricky and Morty episode with the face huggers that controlled their minds lmao. John cena is carrying the movie at this point but it’s a struggle to watch.
Ryan Byrne
Gotta do peacemaker next
Jon hansen
Also Harley Quinn the animated series it’s your type of humor
Melody Netherton
I hope you do the Harley Quinn movie too! It's so fun!
lunasera
Maybe because you were 10 min in.
lunasera
Yay!!! I'm glad you loved this one and I hope the series PEACEMAKER is next on your list! It picks up after this movie but sort of has vibes of The Boys. Plus only one season so far so not a massive commitment!
Erik Lepe
You absolutely have to watch Peacemaker now
FATAL Baddiez 💋
The Harley Quinn movie is pretty good not the best but it’s still nice to watch especially since it’s Margot’s last time playing Harley (from at least what I’ve heard 😔)
Melody Netherton
I love the fact that Idras Elba has been amazing in Marvel and Dc. Ratchatcher was one of my favorites so I lost it when his daughter showed up. Also they now know rats are not that diseased. The plagues that they supposidly spread were actually the result of fleas. Have to throw that in in defense of my pet rat "Mr. Jingles"
GRX
Alex please watch peacemaker, you Will fucking loveit
Heretic
Also the first movie had WAAAY better music.
Dylan Smith
PEACEMAKER TIME LESGOO
Heretic
First time watching this, 10 mins in and I'm already confused as to why people think this is so much better than the 2016 version? It's clearly worse. Will smith > meryl from the walking dead, joker and harley in the first film were way more entertaining than this forced dry humor bs every other scene. Pete Davidson is a w but feel like he will probably die super early in the film. Also weasel over killer cringe ( croc) all day every day.
Chad Higgins
gotta watch peacemaker next and creature commandos after that
Jon hansen
You’ve gotta watch peacemaker next
Too Original
Knew he would enjoy this one more, now he needs PeaceMaker series
BWarrior808
Welp I was against the suicide squad reaction but id be on board for peacemaker and creature commandos
Conner Baker
Now peacemaker is a must watch now that you have the backstory!
MyRottenSold1er
Weasels back story is so sad. Can’t wait for you to see Peacemaker and Creature Commandos
David Ivaškovič
HELL YEAH, this is the one!
Slaya806
Peacemaker first
Matiana Colmenero
Rats are not as disgusting as people think. Most people have Dumbo Rats as pets and take them to the vet for shots just like dogs and cats. But with that said, wild rats that live outside/ the sewer are very dangerous and have all sorts of diseases!!
i love roids
YESSIR
Eric Meekins
Therrrrrrrre it is!!🔥🔥🔥
Josh Bruner
I’m just excited for Peacemaker and Creature Commandos as the next guy but are we not going to finish the Snyder-verse first?
Réno Lechevalier
I have pet rats and let him tell you that they are the most beautiful compagnion ever, they are smart, loving, they just want friend to play with and all. they are the best
Joovain
Will you watch Ratatouille without poll??? Cause it only lost by 1% to this.
Joovain
No Sausage Party is craaaaaaazy
NicTheLitch
Alex!! You should check out Creature Commandos and Peacemaker both on Max both related to these movies. Especially peacemaker it's so fucking funny.
Lucas Husli
So many people have told me that I look like Pete Davidson😂😂
Noah Blossom
ALSO WEASEL IS INNOCENT, He was tryna save the kids and it was misconstrued 😭
Zach
seee we told you this movie was better even though the 2016 was good it js couldn’t compare NOW YOU CAN WATCH PEACEMAKER!!!
Josh H
Come on Alex watch creature commandos don’t hate weasel he’s innocent 🥺
Kayla
Yes! You’re gonna LOVE the Peacemaker show!
roberts veselis
Well try watch it one time and didnt even finish .. didnt like it ... well i will give it another try with you :D
Immeasurably Me
Alof of us told you the second one was so much better and you didnt need to watch the first one lol. Just lost to democracy.
Noah Blossom
Nice early episode lol, PLEASE WATCH PEACEMAKER YOUD LOVE IT.
roncelune
NICE ! Now please Alex consider making the time for the Peacemaker tv show 🙏
Thunder

zimy__

Matt of all Trades
This is a great one for you to react to man. Love this one! By far the better of the two.
Aarron Denton
Word
Aarron Denton
I fucking love you Alex. Thought I was gonna have to wait a lil bit for this one lmao.
JQ
Pete Davison obviously has a gigantic hog
