verdict
Grim and gory just as often as it is silly. James Gunn is in his element here, possibly even more than he was with GOTG.
genre Action
synopsis Supervillains Harley Quinn, Bloodsport, Peacemaker and a collection of nutty cons at Belle Reve prison join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X as they are dropped off at the remote, enemy-infused island of Corto Maltese.
