Incarcerated supervillains undertake high-risk black ops missions, bringing a brisk, darkly comic, and raunchy adventure.
Campy and pulpy, with dark satire. A party watch at a brisk pace. Emotionally it carries some weight.
Streaming on Max.
The thing to know: brutal violence and graphic gore, more than a PG-13 usually carries. Beyond that, some innuendo or implied sex and some strong language.
Our estimate: fine from about 16, higher than the PG-13 suggests, because of the gore and violence.
How we rate: an AI reads what is known about each title and tags it 0 to 3; we check the tags against a hand-rated set and correct them by hand when readers tell us. Estimates, not a scene-by-scene review. Spot a mistake? Tell us.
From DC Comics comes the Suicide Squad, an antihero team of incarcerated supervillains who act as deniable assets for the United States government, undertaking high-risk black ops missions in exchange for commuted prison sentences.
It leaves things open rather than tying them up.
