10 Reasons Batman: Assault On Arkham Destroys Suicide Squad

10. It Actually Has A Memorable Plot

It's fair to say that Suicide Squad's narrative was disappointingly scant: once the Squad was teamed together, the movie's remaining two acts were basically one long mission, where they rescued Amanda Waller and took down Enchantress.

Assault On Arkham by contrast has a more involving plot that actually sticks in the mind: it begins as a heist film, where the Squad has to break into Arkham Asylum in order to recover a flash drive in The Riddler's possession which would compromise every past and present member of the Squad.

From there things get infinitely more complex as The Joker hatches his own scheme, planning to detonate a dirty bomb as Batman attempts to put a stop to him. These plots intersect in a meaningful way and give the film a more layered feel, as opposed to the fairly singular, by-the-numbers narrative of Suicide Squad, where the only variation is by way of awkward, choppy flashback sequences.
