The continuing story of Peacemaker – a compellingly vainglorious man who believes in peace at any cost, no matter how many people he has to kill to get it – in the aftermath of the events of “The Suicide Squad.”
Peak fiction
I don't understand how this show has such a high rating and such high praise. Four episodes in and I gave up and just read the wiki pages for the last four episodes.
I feel like both Peacemaker and Harcourt as I watch this; I don't understand why the !@#$ we're here doing any of this because I'm not being told anything, and I don't understand why I'm surrounded by !@#$ing morons.
The only part of this story that has any weight to it is Peacemaker's relationship with his father.
There's certainly entertainment here, else I wouldn't have sat through four episodes, but it's wrapped up in so much brain-dead garbage that it's like watching Whedon's Josstice League and Snyder's Excessive Justice Cut back-to-back.
Holy !@#$. Maybe I'm just not in the mood for it.
Why is Adebayo so... clownish? We started the series with Waller trying to guilt trip her into staying on the payroll because she's supposedly exceptional, except we don't see that on screen at all!
By comparison, MCU's Ironheart is currently sitting at 57%. Explain that to me, because the first three episodes of Ironheart were overall more entertaining than the first four episodes of this.
