6. The Bad: The Villains are Atrocious
If we’re talking about characters, we need to address the large boring elephant in the room. Our main villains, Enchantress and Incubus, are a couple of, if not THE, least interesting villains in any superhero movie I’ve ever seen.
While I’ll concede that Enchantress had the potential to be interesting when she was acting like a creepy monster from a Japanese horror movie, the second she meets up with Incubus and turns into a modern version of Rita Repulsa, my eyes glaze over.
Incubus is somehow even worse. A lot worse. Even if the CG didn’t look like it belonged on a PS3 launch title, Incubus has less personality than the pavement he’s walking on. If you asked me to explain one thing about his characterization, I couldn’t even make a snarky joke about it because there is NOTHING to work off of.
Having Enchantress go coo-coo before she’s ever sent out with the Squad means that she has no personal connection to most of the team, and Incubus has no connection to ANY of the team. This results in a drawn out but impossibly uninteresting climax. Also, they are ludicrously overblown antagonists. As soon as they started having overwritten monologues delivered through subtitles, I actually laughed out loud in the theatre. It feels like the kind of goofy overblown mythology from the original Ghostbusters movie, but there it was a joke.
And speaking of jokes…
