Nearly walked out of suicide squad but decided to give it a second chance. What a mistake.

Lol. It was the only movie i hated among the ones i watched in theatre. Although i might not have liked the last jedi, eternals and some other movies that i watched in theatre, the torture of suicide squad has never been matched.

I've never felt that way in the theatre before. Just waiting for it to end.

That was me with Babylon. I was already getting over a stomach virus, so I was still a bit queasy; the first 25 minutes almost made me vomit. But I decided to give it a chance to see what worked and didn't work, given the polarized reviews that I have seen online. Overall I hated it; I hated it because it really could have been an alright movie that centered around a transition period in the industry with the seediness of Hollywood and dealing with the toxic press who write stories to try to kill an A-listers reputation (pretty much what is relevant today). But it wasn't; it was just a movie with lavish set decors, pretty costumes, a track you hum to once in a while, a dull script that went nowhere, and a VERY bizarre direction. The only reason I could think of why Chazelle wanted to make it was to ACTUALLY lock in a REAL Best Picture win at the Oscars (since his film won and then lost to Moonlight, plus the trailer for Babylon screamed Bp win). It's 3 hours and 9 minutes of my life I will never get back, and 3 hours and 12 minutes I could have spent watching Avatar 2 for the 3rd time.
