The live action Suicide Squad has a great look, a great soundtrack, just a shitty script. I think the haters of it just wanted to love Suicide Squad so that latched on to the new animated film Hell to Pay. I think those that supported Squad without limits wanted pitch a Squad flick to the haters so they too latched on to Hell to Pay. For an animated flick it isn't bad, but not on par with DC animation of say a decade ago. It is better than the last few, but that isn't saying much. For me, a fan of the Suicide Squad New 52, i am still longing for a really kick ass flick full of violence, macabre humor and Harley Quinn. But honestly until then, i will take the live action flick. Give it a rewatch, remember when comic book films were cheap & campy? Well Squad wasn't that, but it had more of a vision than most 90s & 00s comic flicks. The animated film has the heart, it just needs the brain.
