It’s hard not to say that the worst thing about Suicide Squad is Enchantress and how completely ineffectual she is as a villain. For starters, her big apocalyptic plan is left frustratingly unexplained.

As she explains at one point, Enchantress is bitter that the world she used to rule thousands of years ago now worships machines. So, in a delicious bit of irony to bring about humanity’s downfall, she builds her own machine (or big trash portal in the sky) to, um… Any ideas?

Well, presumably her ‘machine’ would destroy a lot of the manmade world but leave mankind alive, ready to fall at her feet again like the good ol’ days. So, while it’s not too hard for us to fill in the gaps, this still shows a disappointingly lazy attitude to storytelling.
