Reception

[edit]

The Hollywood Reporter said: "It is edited and shot to feel like a mixture of a grindhouse film mixed with Suicide Squad through the blender of Tarantino's vision."[1] IndieWire said: "There's as much blood and bodies in the teaser as in any sequence from one of Tarantino's movies, plus riffs on several of the unforgettable Tarantino one-liners."[4] Boy Genius Report compared it to Inglourious Basterds.[5] Esquire said that Tarantino's version would be better than DC's.[2]
