5. Batman: Assault on Arkham (2014)

Oh, look, a GOOD Suicide Squad movie! So it IS possible.

Taking place in the Batman Arkham video game franchise universe, B: AoA is a tense, gritty, fun film featuring a group of low-rent villains who are deployed to break into Arkham Asylum.

The team includes classics Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, and Harley Quinn, alongside personal favorites Killer Frost, Black Spider, and King Shark. Also, the only terrible thing about this movie is that KGBeast is wasted. WASTED, I TELL YOU. The film is a tense ride, and one that, like the original comic book, makes every character feel expendable.

It really does feel like a true Suicide Squad adaptation, owing more to the Ostrander/Yale style of storytelling than to"¦whatever the hell the live action movie was drawing from. It's just kinda excellent, and you should check it out.
