Predicting The Rotten Tomatoes Scores For 2016's Biggest Remaining Movies

9. Suicide Squad (74%)

Suicide Squad Harley Quinn
Warner Bros.

Critical Consensus: "Dark, superbly acted and sharply directed, Suicide Squad is an agreeably unconventional superhero movie."

While it's hard to be totally convinced by Suicide Squad after the disastrous critical reception to Batman v Superman (just 27%), it certainly looks great, and should benefit from a diverse and charismatic cast.

Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn already looks set to steal the movie, and if writer-director David Ayer can serve up a plot to match the film's evocative personality, then this could easily end up as one of the more enjoyable comic book flicks in recent memory.

If it bombs with critics, it'll be hard to have much hope for the DC Extended Universe from here on out (and a begrudging respect for the folks who cut their trailers).
