Poll Which film offers better entertainment value? Suicide Squad (2016) or Batman and Robin (1997)? (81 votes)

Suicide Squad (2016) is more entertaining 38%
Batman and Robin (1997) is more entertaining 48%
Both films offers about equal entertainment value 9%
I did not watch one or both films / Abstain 5%

Okay, maybe the previous thread I made on comparing Suicide Squad (2016) and The Dark Knight (2008) may be somewhat inappropriate/misleading and I did not specify clearly what was I comparing which led to such massive stomp in favour of The Dark Knight (2008).

FOR THIS THREAD... NOW NOTE - here we are comparing two films, which are both critically reviled in their time. However some people find the films entertaining despite the negative critical reception. So I would like to ask Comicvine that between these two films which one offers better ENTERTAINMENT VALUE - in terms of not caring about the plot/character development but rather the visual, audio, and action aspects.

Suicide Squad.

Unless you have a crap ton of weed, Batman and Robin has no entertainment value whatsoever. On the other hand, I'm in the minority who actually enjoyed Suicide Squad. Wasn't great, but wasn't horrible.

Batman and Robin is a lot of silly fun.

Suicide Squad is a big bag of nothing.

The DCEU hate is getting ridiculous.

Suicide Squad is the more entertao«ining and it is also a decent movie, far better than stuff like Thor: The Dark World and Iron Man 2, which are shit

Don't know why you're mentioning Marvel films in a thread that have nothing to do with them. Talk about going off topic...

It pretty much comes down to 90's Uma Thurman vs Margot Robbie.

That being said I abstain. It's been like over a decade since I've watched Batman and Robin and I was a kid that liked it if only for the fact that it was a superhero flick and that I had a massive crush on Poison Ivy. It could easily fall into the so bad it's good territory but I don't really have the urge to watch anytime soon.

While I liked Suicide Squad enough I could see the problems with it and only really spend the times outside of the action scenes picking apart the plot threads or turning off my brain so I won't do that.

It boggles the mind how bad SS was. I literally stopped watching halfway through the movie.

As much as I'd love to bash Suicide Squad, it was better and a bit more entertaining than Batman and Robin. Or at least it wasn't as cringe or bad. You know what, I think Batman and Robin is the it's so bad, it's good type of movie. But Suicide Squad isn't that at all. If this was Suicide Squad vs Batman Forever, Batman Forever stomps.

suicide squad follows it's name. Whoever watches it contemplates committing suicide. Batman and Robin was just bad. I at least laugh when I see Arnold play Mr. Freeze.

They Both have their own qualities. So it depends on what you are in the mood for, or what your perspectives are.

I don't get the complete "SS is the worst movie ever" hate at all. It has a mediocre plot, the characters all kind of have a chance to shine, the effects are good, the music selection is good. It doesn't tell some Oscar worthy story by any means, but it IS entertaining. If you hate it this much, you probably have to put soooooooo much effort into it. Joker wasn't THAT bad. so he's not heath ledger? heath wasn't Hamill, Hamill wasn't Romero.

B&r was cheesy as hell but some parts were entertaining I gotta say. SS just totally disgust me how awfully bad it was made. Nothing was entertaining about it sorry to say.
